Mushroom Grower’s Workshop Retreat With Darren Springer

Come to Jamaica and learn some of the secrets of growing magic mushrooms from some of the first legal professionals in the industry. Learn the techniques that are being used to create the first fully legal psilocybin industry on the planet. You will learn much of what you need to know in order to grow your own psilocybe cubensis mushrooms. Everything from prepping grain to identifying when the fruit is ripe will be covered. You will learn liquid culture and agar preparations that are easy enough to do in just about any kitchen in the world. It can take months to learn every step of the mushroom growing process online. However, in four days, you will lay hands on every step of the process. You will be able to actually do every step of the process without having to suffer through all of the waiting. And then you can go home and grow legal culinary mushrooms while you await legalization! Every student that completes our program will receive a certificate of completion for our beginners’ class. This certificate will prove you have a basic working knowledge of our mono tub technique. The first benefit is access to our network of growers to exchange information and build a cooperative community. Second, you will get access to our advanced class, where you will learn large scale commercial techniques.
