Howdy shroomers -

any difference between these 2 i.t.o ease of cultivation? I'm a first-timer looking to get started but would prefer to aim for simple success.

Also, where could I order spores for either?

I would go with Cubes bro...there are alot more teks and forums on the Cubes then any other mushroom species, plus Cubes are pretty simple easy to grow with some knowledge (knowledge is power!)... I usually get my spores from earthstongue.com  it is a little more for their syringe but there is twice as much... at least that's how it used to be, also alot of people go through ralphstersspores.com good luck

Yes, grow some cubes, Liberty Caps are a difficult species to grow indoors. You might want to look into Panaeolus Cyanescens, or Mexicana, Sclerotia.http://forums.mycotopia.net/exotic-magic-mushroom-species-dung-lovers-pan-cyans/

I would like to recommend http://www.lilshopofspores.com/ "Jason" is a hella nice guy that treat all his customer with great reverencer I havent did business with any other Company that has replied to emails as promptly and if you've got a problem he'll go the extra mile and then some to make you satisfied , not to mention his prices are very reasonable. Give him a try i promise you wont regret it ! and for the record he's not a personal Friend.

In my humble opinion, stick to SporeWorks.com or RalphstersSpores.com, and yes, sclerotia would be a good idea to start with considering that all of the growth is done inside of the jar and would be the easiest to grow. Psilocybe Mexicana grows fastest followed by Galindoi then Tampanensis. You could have something to eat in as little as six weeks, research.
Chloroform and a dish towel, yeah that will keep them quiet....
