As one of Silk Road's premier mushroom vendors, let me welcome you to the world of mycology. Growing your own mushrooms can be a lot of fun.
As others have suggested, shroomery.org is the place to start. I would also suggest :
http://www.fanaticus.com/
This is the original PF-Tek recipe (the recipe used by me and the vast majority of those that grow psilocybe cubensis).
If you're living in the United States, buying spores is perfectly legal (shrooms themselves are not illegal.... only psilocybin is illegal). You will need spores to get your operation going. Eventually though, you will want to make your own spore prints. I got my spores from :

Good luck, and I wish you well.

Growing Cubensis Mushrooms is a very fun and satisfying hobby.
It is also extremely easy, and if you are in the UK is a great excuse to buy high-end jam. (bon maman jam jars are about the only ones that are the right shape!)
Thoroughly research the links provided above and get a pressure cooker if you don't already have one.
When you come to inoculate do not skimp on cleanliness. Disinfect your surface and yourself and wear gloves and a face mask. Be meticulous, systematic and swift.
Pro tip: place tea light candles in the area where you are inoculating your jars. The hot air rising removes airborne contaminants.

Growing shrooms is so so simple. Much faster than cannabis too but I enjoy growing cannabis more. Shroomery.org has everything you need.
