[UPDATE 11/16/2023]: LW admin AvaddonFC has confirmed that photos of your grows are allowed.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to make sure we are all up to speed on this community's rules. /c/Shrooms was reopened on the condition that we enforce LW's TOS. Feel free to post your questions here or shoot me a PM.

Our community rules as they currently stand:
1. Follow the Lemmy World Terms of Service.
2. Be helpful.
3. No trading of anything here. (See rule 1.)
4. Do not post about vendors. (See rule 1.)
5. No Irrelevant Content.
6. No instructions on how to grow or where to source materials.

~~I know that rule 6 is a bit broad and potentially vague. I have messaged an admin for clarification and will update this post when I receive a response. For now, I believe it's best to air on the side of caution and remove all posts about growing.~~

Is it federally legal though? LW needs to be careful that it does not run afoul of US regulations. One lawsuit or criminal case could spell the end for LW. The explosive growth we experienced over the summer put much light on the instance. They seem to have locked down anything that could potentially draw unwanted attention from the authorities and are loosening restrictions slowly as they evaluate things on a case-by-case basis. I will continue to push for fewer restrictions on this community.

That said, if you are looking for a similar community with fewer restrictions, try !shrooms@sh.itjust.works. A lot of the community has moved there already.

It is in the same status as marijuana and there are plenty of weed growing communities on LW. I get where you are coming from but there is precedent for similar content on LW if that helps

That's the case I plan to make with the admins.
