Psilocybin tea, wind chimes and a tie-dye mattress await those coming to an office suite in Eugene to trip on magic mushrooms. For roughly six hours, adults over 21 can experience what many users describe as vivid geometric shapes, a loss of identity and a oneness with the universe.
Epic Healing Eugene — Oregon’s first licensed psilocybin service center — opened in June, marking the state’s unprecedented step in offering the mind-bending drug to the public. The center now has a waitlist of more than 3,000 names, including people with depression, PTSD or end-of-life dread.
No prescription or referral is needed, but proponents hope Oregon’s legalization will spark a revolution in mental health care.
Maybe if I ever get a bigger apt, I’ve looked into it in the past and never pulled the trigger
There was (is?) a subreddit called UncleBens, where users talk about using a pouch of Uncle Ben’s microwave rice to grow mushrooms.
Apparently, it’s the perfect growth media for low budget shroom cultivation.
I don’t know what other things you’d need, like temperature and humidity control, and keeping everything sterile after inoculating the rice might be an issue as well. I never spent a lot of time looking at the subreddit, I just know it exists.
Some small mason jars, a way to puncture the lids, some cheap tape, brown rice flour, and vermiculite
Then a big plastic tub and some perlite for the fruiting chamber
Super cheap and shockingly easy
