The Big and Dandy Set & Setting Thread

Dude it's going to be different for everyone. Just realize that you might be really high. Do it in a time/place where you won't have to take care of anything (including looking sober) for at least 8 hours. If it's not this weekend or whenever then wait, the shrooms won't go bad.

As far as something to do, just do what you like to do as long as it's not like drag racing or something.


tl;dr just shut up and eat em. ;)
 
First of all...steer clear of the weed. Weed always makes my trips take a paranoid turn for the worse. Sister, or close friends house sounds fine. A trip sitter is a good idea just make sure he's not the pranking type...that shit gets annoying and that can quickly turn ugly. I've almost run out of peoples houses because of that shit.

Otherwise, music, a backyard and staring at the sky in a comfy chair is amazing. Talking to close friends about whatever you feel appropriate. More music. Save the TV for the comedown. It's such a waste on a good peek. Put your phone away. Let me repeat. Put your phone away. There is no need to speak to anyone besides the people you are with while tripping, at least until the comedown.

Make all arrangements with your parents beforehand to ensure they are not going to call you, if they want you to check in, do so but keep it brief. No need to worry the rents unnecessarily.

Music.

If you like The Doors i'd suggest staying away from them your first time, they always end up in a wig out. Some others in here may laugh at me for saying this but i've tested it on many occasions. People always wig out to good old Jim ha!

If you like Hendrix however, play that shit over and over, you'll never get bored.

After the peek if you feel you can take a walk do so, but take your trip sitter if he's willing.

If you have some cool art books they can be fun, drawing, painting, however with shrooms there is a body load so watch out, you may feel very drunk especially on the come up, have a seat, turn on some music and wait for some energy to kick in. Try to setup your space right before you eat them though, I always find this makes for a more productive and better flowing trip. Anything you try to do while tripping will take you twice as long (looking for something, getting dressed, etc.) so set everything up!

Anymore questions?
 
Ok well i talked to the girl thats supposed to get them she said that there pretty potent.. And that we should just split an 8th between two so thats what were going to do.... So we are currently thinking of what we should do or where we can go because of the fact that i live with my parents right now means i cant at my house.... We are either going to at a friends house that used to be another one of our drug buddies were REALLY comfortable and we consider him a brother.. His house is a familliar place as it had holded many smokeouts and E partys and sorts..... Another one that were thinking of is at my sisters house... Idk Do any of you guys have any ideas you can shoot for a good setting and things we can do?

Well, as far as set and setting go, whoever said its diffrenet for everyone is right. If youve done a lot of drugs in your house with your parents home, you'll be fine. As far as dose goes, I'm a believer in too much over too little with psychs. My first shroom trip was an eighth of powerful shrooms, and it was my best shrooms experience ever. However, I seem to have a higher than normal tolerance for mushrooms. Most of my friends have always taken an eighth too though. Id do more than half an eighth. At least 2 - 2.5 grams each. But if you want to play it safe, Id take the half an eighth, and redose if you want, and if not just enjoy!
 
Omgoshh so its comfirmed that were getting them hopefully my sister doesnt lag it on the ride to go gettem :D

Yea hendrix is a definate choice for me... I mean the way that i see what were gonna do is just eat them.. Get picked up.. Go to my sisters house.. Chill out for a bit play some music draw and smoke.. Idkk she has a comp and she has movies so I think ill be good.. she has the yellow submarine movie on dvd which i never seen 0.o Plus alice in wonderland.. (shes an ex-tripper so i think ill be in good hands)

Another question guys... I kinda got the flu on wednesday.. Had a fever and some headaches.. Im going to the doctors right now but im starting to feel back to normal.. Would this affect anything tomorrow?
 
If you still feel sick tomorrow, don't eat the shrooms. You will only feel worse if you do. Wait until you are healthy physically and mentally.

^agreed, the doors movie is amazing while tripping. I watched it alone a few times while coming down from various substances and it's always one of my absolute favorites.

Save the movies for another time :( This is your first trip dude! Don't let that damn TV think for you...feed your head, man! If it starts getting weird the TV will usually bring you back though...
 
alright thats true.... no tv! :) although now the problem is that we dont have a place to stay at as they both seemed to have pulled back... im wondering if im able to eatem and be at my house? my room is all the way in the end of the house i have a tv a computer etc... ive rolled and been high from weed many times in my house nd in front of my parents house..... do you guys think ill be good doing them at my house? they probably check in once like every 3 or 4 hrs... and with that well probably go to the park or go walk around and roam the streets
 
Ok so im getting different thoughts from different people about weed........
My sisters going to take me to get them tomorrow.. And knowing her we are going to probably match a blunt an hour or 2 from when i dose my shrooms... Should i not do this? I dont think i am going to smoke after i dose.. But im thinking before... For the jitters and stuff
 
1/8th shrooms

Me and a friend are buyin an 1/8th for the 2 of
us. We have everything planned out we're gunna eat em next
Friday in his basement at night when eberyones asleep. I have a few questions though.. I don't plan on smoking cause I get tested every once in a while will this be a problem? Since we are doing it late will we be like really tired or what? We might buy some caffiene pills and maybe take some hydrocodone here and there. And will that dose be enough for the both of us? Our parents are under lots of suspicion lately.. We won't be too loud I'm assuming? We have tried everything together so far.. Any other tips would be great! Thanks!
 
First off. Don't mix drugs the first time you do a psychedelic. Just don't. Secondly just wait until you have some time and space to yourself to do them. I know you can take drugs when you're a kid, but everyone I know that started smoking or doing drugs early seems a little bit short of knowledge. You have your entire life to fuck yourself up, at least give yourself a better start. That was said in keeping with BL's intended purpose of harm reduction.

I don't think you'd enjoy doing them with your parents in the house. I assume you mean that YOU are under suspicion from the rents, but if you're like most shroomers you'll giggle a lot at some point. There's no way you can act "normal" if you do run into them. Just wait.

No need for caffeine pills, the mushrooms will keep you awake for sure. No need for the vicodin either and that's not on principle either. Opiates dull psychedelics. And so you make a psychedelic experience boring and unenlightening and also waste opiates. Not a good combo. Take care.

Peace,
PL
 
u nvr do shrooms in public, save urself the worst trip of ur life, even if you are a common user, try running 15 min on shrooms, u feel so unbalanced and like draging everywhere. juts a tip, first time i would do a solid 2g, and tea form, first trip is always the best, helps if the sun is out and beautiful day.
 
Fresh:

If they are freshly picked id say 5-6 caps and if they effect is not hitting you by then, eat some stems and maybe another cap or two.



----------------------------------------------------------------
Dried:

If they are dried i'd suggest eating about an eight each.

***If they are dried out let them soak in lemon juice for a little while them eat them, they will be sour but they trip it puts you on is indescribable.
 
First time shrooming - Dose??

I have about 5 grams of some good shrooms and I am wondering how much I should take...it is my first time and I do not know what to expect. I don't really wanna be tripping out too hard. Just enough to have a good time at home with some friends. Please let me know how much is good for a first timer and how long it usually takes to feel it on an empty stomach.
 
A gram and a half should do the trick. You can eat another gram, maybe a little less, after an hour and a half or so if you feel up to it, but chances are if it's your first time, just the 1.5 should be fine. It should take between 45 minutes and an hour to kick in, assuming you just eat them whole and on an empty stomach (if you make tea, it speeds things up, but I'd leave that for another time). Wait a good 30 minutes after you start tripping before you redose, if you want to eat more ... you definitely don't want to eat more than you're prepared for just because you jumped the gun.

Some people will tell you that an 8th (3.5 g) is a good dose to start with. This is too much for someone who's never taken shrooms before, in my opinion. I barely ever go above 2.5 grams myself.

To be honest, what I'd recommend is that you find 2 friends who are interested and split the 5 grams evenly between the 3 of you. Have another close friend around to keep an eye on you and make sure things go OK. It's good to have other tripping people around, so you can share the experience, and it's even better to have a sober friend on your first trip to take care of whatever little things you're too distracted to pay attention to, and take charge if things go wrong.

Just make sure that you trust the people you're around when you do it, and you know the place where you'll be doing it really well, and you should be fine.
 
Merging this, but also adding that you should look in the Subthread of mushrooms that covers dosage.

Honestly. This exact question is covered ad nauseam and I don't want to be a partypooper but taking mushrooms for the first time should never be taken lightly. For each and every individual it is certainly worth reading through the subthreads of the main Big & Dandy Mushroom Thread because your questions are not a unique premiere.

You owe it to yourself to invest the attention this endeavour deserves, meaning instead of asking before researching make sure that our treasure of information doesn't emcompass the knowledge you seek. ;)
