I was agreeing with you that 400mcg is not something to be taken casually...Sorry, I didn't mean to go against what you (pl) have determined.
You mentioned that you can't verify your doses, though. Why throw out numbers in that case? I prefer to just mention so many hits, and if they were strong or weak. I think without quantitative analysis that's all we can say.
However...
Didn't know you were that old school a cat! That makes things a little different. I am much too young to have direct personal knowledge but my understanding was that 250ish mics was standard ("Orange Sunshine," I think, was supposed to be) and that one hit was typically sufficient for quite a strong trip. Not always like that today! I think part of the difference was hits were actually meant to be doses back then. Now they're called "doses," but many people will have to take several in order to trip as hard as they want to.Still, I genuinely respect SKL's post and agree in principle.
The person I am referring to was my best friend and the lead guitar for my band.
The time period was summer 1969. There was some very decent yellow barrels going around, allegedly 350 mics. Most people I knew would cut these in two for a "dose" and be more than happy.
I watched as my friend ate 10 of them in one night staggering them by about 20 min or so. That's a heroic does even if the dose per barrel varied.
I will also state clearly that I never did this [personally, but the OP's post made me remember that summer night in 1969, LOL ...
That's all![]()
250mcg and 1mg were also the standard dose plateaus for the early psychedelic therapy people, too, called "psycholytic" and "psychedelic," respectively. Yes, the pioneers reserved the term "psychedelic" for what now is a ten-strip of good commercial acid. Brass balls the old school dudes had. It's difficult to overemphasize how strong a dose 1mg is, it's an entirely different level of experience, and 250mcg is way stronger than people's concept of a "hit."
No disrespect to my elders was intended.
