Bejeeber Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hey Clusterheads, Been meaning to register here for a good while now - some of you may recognize me from the clusterheadaches.com forum (hey Bonkers! ), where I routinely suggest to new members that they come on over here and learn about clusterbusting. I have a few topics to start here, but I'll try to just focus on one for this post: I AM A LUCKY SOB! I say this because although I started having CH attacks every year starting about 30 years ago, the frequency of episodes gradually started diminishing, and I went 7 voonderbar years between my 2 last episodes. My most recent episode started around August of last year and lasted about 2.5 months. I've been experiencing a day of shadows once every 9 to 14 days for the past several months. I've always dosed with around 45 RC seeds at bedtime on the day of the shadows, and have woken up symptom free until the next shadow 9 to 14 days later. Well I did this again just a few days ago with the same results except that after just one day PF, the shadows are back for 2 days in a row now. I'm not just a lucky SOB, I am also a vigilant one when it comes to CH, so just in case this is a new episode trying to start up, I'm seriously planning on looking into knocking it out with nature's fungi from the cow pastures. Last year the RC wasn't enough to thwart my CH episode and I'm ready for the big guns. FINALLY the question: For a feller living in the city in Tennessee, any opinions on what would be the smartest way to proceed, either somehow finding out where the accessible cow pastures are and harvesting the relief that mother nature offers there, or ordering spores and waiting around for 'em to grow? Hmmmm....next up I better go check and see whether spores can even be shipped to TN - last time I checked I was in WA, and there wasn't a problem. (FYI - unfortunately I don't know anyone who could get me some curative fungi. This wouldn't have been a problem for me in the 1970's. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayhedges Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Yes spores can be shipped to Tenessee. My advice would be to go hangaround a large state college campus without looking too creepy and ask some of the kids. Just tell them why and someone will know someone else. otherwise if they have any big music festivals around (probably rock not nashville country) you may ask around there. Just try your best not to look like a cop. No one here can sell you anything but i sure wish there was a way we could share legally or without getting caught for medicinal purposes. But as far as I know that's off limits here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Thanks Jay - and yes I absolutely assume that sharing is off limits here. Man I wish I woulda been thinking about this when the giant Bonaroo outdoor rock festival was being held here recently. It would been VERY hot there though. Otherwise, I don't know that I've ever had the personality for hanging around somewhere and asking strangers about mushrooms, but now especially at age 51, I figure I'd likely send the college kids screaming. Agreed that a mainstream country music festival may not exactly be the right venue either. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayhedges Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hey my friend I am 56 and 29 days into my fist CH. I have been asking asking everyone I know including two of my own kids in college. When you hit about a kip 8, risking jail even sounds worth it. I live a few blocks from Johns Hopkins Mecial school and I just went to the starbucks on campus and have two kids looking around for me. Problem is summer time and not many kids on campus but I will score eventually or get "busted" trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hey Jay - at 29 days into an episode I'm sure you are truly motivated. I've adopted the cliche "desperate times call for desperate measures" practically as my SLOGAN in the past when I've been where you're at right now. Here's hoping the good Samaritan college kids will come through for you TODAY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallas Denny Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Check your PM's Bejeeber... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonkers Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hey yourself, Bejeeber. And welcome. Glad you got here before the storm hit. Time to check your PM's yet again. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonkers Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hi Bejeeber, It's important that you start your garden as soon as possible. You're looking at 2 months b4 you get any fruit. And that's if everything goes right. You have to learn about sterile procedures. You have to build a couple of things. And you have to learn about and become an amateur/recreational mycologist. Unless you're like Denny, and can do anything, you'll have problems and contaminations and shit'll happen which'll further delay your fruit. Join the Mycotopia forum (http://forums.mycotopia.net/fungi-growing-edible-medicinal-magic-mushrooms/) and read all you can. You can ask questions here as well as there. I'm very glad to see you here. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad6string Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Denny is the man with the plan. He told me how to get things going and it's been a snap. He can get you pointed in the right direction about how to get the most out of your garden. P.S. Thanks for all your advise DD Mad6string Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
