You deserve some type of award. You da man. I grow my own cubensis+ and indulge 2 to 3 times a year. Don't know how to post pics with this archaic set up ...plus I'm a dumbass boomer.
I appreciate the kind words, cultivating cubensis is an incredibly rewarding activity. When I was cultivating, since I strictly never sell anything, I was eating something like 75-125g of mushrooms a week because my tolerance was so high. I would fill both pockets with mushrooms (and a pocket knife of course), even my wallet and phone going into a backpack. Skateboarding through Portland Maine, sipping coca/ephedra tea out of a thermos and just munching away on cubes was a beautiful lifestyle and it facilitated a lot of recovery from trauma in my life. Posting pics on BL is a pain in the ass, you have to throw them on imgur or another image hosting site, then get the direct image link (it'll end in something like .jpg, or .png) and then provide that image link to the text editing field here on BL. All mentioned mushroom weights in this post are after dehydration, but there's nothing like munching freshies clean out of the monotub. When my tolerance would get so high that mushrooms were useless, I'd just add harmaline to my thermos and it would potentiate them into a sort of shroomahuasca.
I lived with 5-7 other goofy ass hippies at that time, and they'd collectively clean 25-35g of mushrooms a week, and there were 3 of us smoking 2g+ of dabs per day. Lot of acid, kanna, MDA/MDMA, ayahuasca (sometimes just insufflated lines of harmaline), this was marginally before I got into RCs so it was just based around whatever drugs were accessible via cultivation, extraction, the festival/concert circuit, and an esoteric network of ethnobotanical vendors who would send me "test batches" of things to provide reviews on. Some were fantastic, some where absolutely horrifically toxic. Mucuna pruriens and Alicia anisopetala were both very interesting, but could easily be pushed too far if you went from smoking 30-45mg of extract up to say, 80-100mg in a bowl (since it's a powder, twist copper screens beneath it to keep it from falling down the neck of the bowl).
The amanita matter rolled up today, I didn't weigh it but it's probably a half pound or so? Finely macerated, smells fantastic, I'm going to smoke some soon to get a feel for it but I am residually on 25mg of hydroxyzine, 20mg of 2C-B, 450ug of oral MDMB-4en-PINACA, 150mg of intranasal fladrafinil, and today I accidentally double dosed my bupropion and I don't even want to mention the dose that I narrowly survived earlier. My dumb ass took my morning dose at 3AM, fell asleep, woke up forgetting I'd taken it at 5AM, took it again, then took my usual second dose at about noon, and realized I was closer to 3/4 of a gram than 1/2 a gram of bupropion. That shit is easily fatal, 450mg has dropped people via seizures in the past, so I've been taking it easy with things that can be seizure inducing, avoiding heavy stimulants, etc.
Tonight I'm pondering mixing some salvia with the amanitas to see how it goes, though blue lotus extract, (7-OH)-mitragynine, wild lettuce resin and opium are also tempting to try smoking with it.
Sorry for the rant, I'm on enough bupropion right now to where I'd consider it equivalent to an oral 45-60mg dose of methamphetamine.
Edit: Smoked a small pinch of amanita muscaria matter, absolutely wonderful stuff. The visual effects were unexpected and resembled when I would smoke Ambien tablets as a teenager (
do not smoke pills please), but my body feeling like euphoric gelatin and this circular band of intense and electric euphoria around my skull reminds me a lot of how GHB feels. Vaporized etizolam has a similar relaxation, but it's more myorelaxant, smoked amanita is like if GHB lost all of its belligerance and was a bit closer to smoked zolpidem (Ambien). Will update further as I try other combos, RoAs and the sort.
right now with Chlorpheniramine, Diphenhydramine, Nutmeg, Xanax, weed, coffee, chocolate, Menthol Cigarettes, and Subutex as we speak.
