https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/820538/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/820538/ is an issue, for
example. So is general contamination. This seems like a terrible idea.

- WalterGR 4y agoNot to say that growing mushrooms at home is risk-free, but that paper is about industrial production. Emphases mine: [0] "Several persons concerned with the cultivation and industrial production of this mushroom fell ill, after close contact with it over a period of some months, with exhaustion, headache, chills and fever, and cough." [0] (no snark intended - just pointing out potential differences from home cultivation)
- foobiekr 4y agoyeah, but no one is tracking home growers. the issue is spore germination in lungs or allergic hypersensitivity which will be due to exposure. I used to grow mushrooms at home, and worse, oyster mushrooms, and developed a persistent cough even for my relative low volume. it cleared up when I got rid of them, but you know, the area was just covered, covered in spores.
