Recently tried shrooms for the first time and was a bit underwhelmed, but not sure if I'm micro-dosing or what. Tried the regular variety and some other allegedly Thai shrooms, which definitely had a stronger effect. I tried a few stems at first, and then ramped up the dosage with slightly more 'visuals', but it's like I have to eat a whole handful or just let my body learn to process it or something.
- curryst 7y agoFrom what I've heard (no real scientific data to back this) the stems contain very little psylocibin. And the dosage for mushrooms is surprisingly high. For run of the mill strains, I believe 3.5 grams is considered a standard dose. Which is still not a blast you off the planet amount, but enough to experience visual distortions and euphoria.
- mnm1 7y agoThe stems are the most potent part of the specimen. The caps have less psylocibin than the stems. If you bruise the fresh (and sometimes dry) specimen, you can see it turn blue. That indicates the presence of psylocibin. The smaller the specimens, the more psylocibin per gram you will have in a dose as there is significant psylocibin even in tiny specimens, including ones that have barely formed caps.
- orasis 7y agoOn some strains 3.5 grams is a serious therapeutic dose requiring a sitter. My last trip was about this much with another 1.5 set aside but I was blasted out of time and space and opted not to re-up. It all depends on the strain.
- tnecniv 7y agoTypically you have to eat a whole bunch if your goal is to trip. Since they don't taste very good, people often eat them with other fun to help mask the taste (pickles, peanut butter, etc). I'm sure you can find dosage guides online easily enough.
- proc0 7y agoRight, that's probably it then. Yeah a concentrated edible would be interesting.
