FYI the article poorly summarizes the bill and leads to the incorrect belief that the quantities listed are way off from reality. Here's the relevant section (bold added):

The possession, ingestion, obtaining, growing, giving away without financial gain to natural persons 18 years of age or older, and transportation of no more than two grams of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine, ibogaine, and mescaline, excluding the weight of any material such as water, plant and fungi material of which the substance is a part or to which the substance is added, dissolved, held in solution, or suspended.

So if I'm reading this correctly the limit is 2 grams of psilocybin (an enormous amount), not 2 grams of mushrooms (a low dose).

This comes out to ~130 grams of mushrooms 🍄

Would the yield of a typical /r/unclebens batch be under the limit?

130g is about 1/4 pound, but I have no idea how much that is in a practical sense.

Yeah, I think a typical batch would be a bit more than that, depending on how successful you are.

Am I tripping, or is that a very long sentence fragment? What about the possession, ingestion, etc of all of these substances?

In the bill, the sentence before is basically "All this shit is legal:".
>Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, all of the following shall be lawful for a natural person 18 years of age or older and shall not be a violation of state or local law:
The possession, ingestion, obtaining, growing, giving away without financial gain to natural persons 18 years of age or older, and transportation of no more than two grams of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine, ibogaine, and mescaline, excluding the weight of any material such as water, plant and fungi material of which the substance is a part or to which the substance is added, dissolved, held in solution, or suspended.
