OK, so it was my birthday and I was having dinner with my housemate and girlfriend A after a pretty long day at work. I’m not really into birthday’s I think they are a tad egotistical, but felt a little down that I had disappointed a few people by not doing anything. Well that and the fact I had no weed. I mean a birthday without weed? That’s just shit fucking planning.
Anyway, we were sitting around discussing marijuana cultivation and I decided it would be a good day to see if I could germinate a couple seeds I had found in the bottom of a bag. As I was snuffling around my paraphernalia spot, I found a couple chunks of dried amanita caps. I’d forgotten about them – perfect timing to try smoking them! Finally I found the seeds and sitting next to it was a little bud of weed. Weed from the same plant as the seeds, I had put it aside for this express purpose, to smoke after they germinated. To smoke with some amanita’s is almost as good right? Fuck it, it’s my birthday.
I grinded up the mushrooms (about 3cm2 of the amanitas – so dry they almost disintegrate), weed, a little bit of tobacco and a tobacco substitute mix. I was feeling pretty god damned pleased with myself. Going from drugless to trying something new in a couple minutes. Meant to motherfucking be. Go past me, you are some sort of all knowing genius. What fore thought?
My housemate went back to studying and I convinced A to brave the cold and sit outside to smoke it. We bring the cup of seeds and a little amanita mushroom statue that I found in my shed a couple weeks ago (along with three full fire extinguishers, go past tenants!) for some good vibes. I loaded up the bong and pull slowly. It takes a while to get lit properly; the smoke is thick and woody, but very smooth. My lips went tingly.
Held it in for about 20-30 seconds before exhaling. First thought, can’t tell any difference to just weed. Maybe only the weed is working, the mushrooms were pretty old, and they could have degraded. I sat quietly as A smoked her cone. I look up at my fence and see a couple flashes of green light. Like a lot of planes flying close together, but really low. It happened so fast I wasn’t sure it had happened. After she had finished her cone I mention this, and she confirms the same thing is happening for her.
We smoke another 2 cones each of the mix, A seemed to have a much more visual effect than I am. Saying that many different colours are lighting up the sky. I’m not surprised; she is a synesthetic and seems to get quite intense hallucinatory effects from drugs (weed especially).
I am definitely off baseline and it’s defiantly not just the weed. It is not strong, the same kind of looseness and calmness of being stoned but more of a heady sort of relaxedness, the visuals repeat sporadically. A mentions she isn’t getting any of the nervous paranoia she often gets with weed. My housemate walked out and asks me how it went. I try and describe but stumble over my words a bit. He laughed at me, but I didn’t care, I feel a little goofy and realized I probably sound/look a bit funny. We climbed into bed and watch something for a while before trying to get to sleep. Which eluded us for a while, but it wasn’t unpleasant just lying there for a while.
What do I think of the experience? Well it kind of seems you would have to smoke a shit ton to get a proper psychedelic experience and not really worth it, but I was actually a little surprised that it was active at all considering that how much I to eat normally.
Its dissociative type calmness I did enjoy however, so I am kind of thinking that smoking as a replacement/adjunct to weed for a similar purpose would be quite effective. That and smoking after the ingestion of other psychedelics – I was thinking with its psilocybe cousins, or now I am wondering if you could make changa out of it. Both as a little boost and to relax yourself during those tense moments. It did seem quite short lived so I think it would be effective for this purpose. Either way the smoke itself is rather tasty so I will be repeating next season.
