The article says there’s been no police activity since decriminalization in Oakland, but there was a big bust a few years ago. They raided a grow operation and took all their money and equipment, rendering it useless. I think they didn’t make any charges or arrests? so still better than jail time!

California still criminalizes the sale of mushroom spores, making growing your own more difficult. It’s been interesting and convenient to be able to buy a menu of shroom products from organizations and churches around town. I hope it gets more popular and less expensive.

From the resolution that was adopted:

De-Prioritizing the enforcement of laws imposing criminal penalties for Entheogenic/Psychedelic plants and fungi for personal use

Still illegal to mass produce for distribution.

Sucks but I’d rather be able to grow my own and not run afoul of the law than just be a criminal all the time.

I’m left to wonder the extent to which lawmakers understand how fungi work. One MSS can yield mass production given sufficient other supplies without intending to cross the line into mass production.

That seems like a feature, not a bug. Unintentional mass production makes an ideal pretext for a raid and filing charges.

They probably don’t understand a whole lot, my head cannon has them at the meeting saying “adults may grow one to three mushrooms per person per household” lmfao

“Mushrooms are all the same size, right?”
