ok, I have never done mushies before - I just want to know what exactly a 8th is? in oz. or grams please. ooh and also is half of a 8th good for a first time?
 
I have a Question:

How does everyone feel about booming alone???
im heavily grounded right now, in out-patient rehab being tested, and i really wanna shroom, and its ripe season around my parts right now so i can cop some dank boomers for cheap.

The only chance ill have to boom will really be by myself at night. im pretty much ready for a really intense deep trip, but is it likely that i could get into some self-revealing things and end up feeling bad about myself and then fall into a never ending solo bad trip? i really dont want that to happen.

anybody whos shroomed alone please throw up your 2 cents, because i really wanna do it and if i am gonna have too deep of a trip by myself then i wanna prepare as best as possible.

oh yeah ive only boomed once before, (1/2 8th)
and this time im thinking about copping either 2-3 G's.
 
Respect the psychoactive. Whoever mentioned smoking weed while being sick and tripping on shrooms .... sorry to be all negative towards youre opinion and whatever, but honesty, thats a shocking idea.
just because you dont like smoking herb, does not mean the effects are not positive for many people. it potentates the trip, as well as being a known nausea reducer (i mean, they give it to chemo patients for nausea...)

i heard somewhere that wet to dry ratio was like 5/1.

cop a while 1/8

and ive tripped alone numerous times, its not a big deal. just make sure your comfortable with yourself and comfortable with your surroundings. this may seem paradoxical (as bad things could happen much more easily outside than in) but i always feel much much better outside than inside when tripping alone. not being constrained to a certain place, able to more around freely, ect. and the scenery is much better.

as many have said, a bad trip is subjective, just let the shrooms take you where they will. if you dont like it, fighting it will only make it 10x worse. use any neg experience to learn about yourself, after all its all in your head (i.e. everything you see and feel is a figment of your own mind)

just flow with it
 
ok i will be mostly inside, and Ill go outside to smoke cigarettes and talk on the phone, haha ill probably end up just sitting by my pond listening to my ipod for 3 hours.


^^^i lied, they are dank shrooms but they are not cheap. 50 bucks an 8th i believe.
how much do you usaully have to pay for your mushies?
 
Psylocibin Shrooms and Dosages?

HI guys, i have a question which i'm sure is fairly basic, but i haven't been able to find much info as yet, hopefully someone will be able to at least point me to the right thread. Sorry if this has been raised a million times before - i am experienced with dried shrooms, but have never had them preserved in honey before. :)

Some friends managed to find some psilocybe cubensis on a relative's property recently, and brought us back some stored in honey. They were picked a few weeks ago. I trust that they are the real deal because:

1. They have some slightly blue bruising
2. We know these people quite well, and didn't pay for the shrooms (these ppl are not dealers of any sort, just friends)
3. They have found these shrooms on this property for years and have taken them many times.

I am planning to take these shrooms with three friends this weekend. We are all experienced trippers on acid, and two of us are reasonably experienced with shrooms.

My questions are as follows:

1. Would the honey they are currently stored in be psychoactive as well? Could we include the honey in the dosage amount, or just the shrooms?

2. As the shrooms have been stored in honey, should we count them as being hydrated? ( i believe some of their liquids seep out when stored in honey)

3. What would an appropriate dosage be for a someone weighing 60kg to have a medium sterngth trip?

Thanks for your help guys! :D
 
1. I doubt it, I've never seen mushrooms preserved in honey. I've only seen 'em in chocolate, and the chocolate, to my knowledge, contained to psychoactive properties.
2. No
3.Thats depends on a lot things, so don't take my word as law, but for me to have a medium dosage, considering the shrooms were above average quality, I would eat an eigth(3.5g). I have always been able to handle more than my friends however, so a medium dose for me, may not be a medium dose for you.
 
this exact same question can up like a week ago, although it may have been in the big and dandy shroom thread.

i have no personal experience with shrooms in honey, but from what i read, if they are put in dry they will not seep, but wet someone said that they would.

i would suggest searching again, and/or checking the mega thread for shrooms as there were many many excellent responses contained within.
 
Please Help Me!!!!! Mushrooms

Hey bluelighters!

I have some questions. i DID search, but my exact questions were not to be found.

im expierenced in EVERY drug except for Psychedelics. ( i allways do salvia but ehh thats like 2 min.)


My frineds and i are ready to try shrooms. were going to be out in the nature by the lake. Please help me answer some questions so i dont end up doing somehting wrong and hurting us. lol



1. is 2 1/8's split between 3 first timers enough or to much for a moderate trip?

2. How long does the trip last

3. later in the night we will be useing cocaiine. will this be a problem?

4. if someone feels uncomfortable by the trip what can he she do? will a line of cocaine sober you up? benzos?

5. lets say i get a phone call and i need to act semi sober on the phone. is this possible or will i be all over the place?

thanks for your replys guys. i allways appreciate it.

i just wana make sure i know what im doing before i go into it. i feel much safer.
 
1. Should be enough if you aren't too big and the shrooms are alright quality
2. Around 6 hours total...you're going to pretty much want to have the day to yourself.
3. I would reccomend against this..go with weed instead. Your brain is going to be pretty worn out after the trip...plus you sort of get a nice feeling of contentment after a good trip, dont' want to ruin that with coke, do you?
4. Benzos do the trick I believe..some xanax.
5. You ought to just turn your phone off so you don't have to worry about it. You could probably talk fine..I've talked to my parents actually, but I think they were drunk at dinner...better to just not worry about talking to authority figures though.

Good choice on location, try doing it when it's nice outside...you'll have a really great time.

Expect to enjoy nature lots more afterwards. :)
 
I love the honesty and quickness of the replys.

thanks man. that helped alot!
 
"1. is 2 1/8's split between 3 first timers enough or to much for a moderate trip?"

1/4 between 3 people is 2 1/3g per person, that should be plenty and is probably about an ideal figure for most peoples first experiences.

"2. How long does the trip last"

Well you will be coming up for at least and hour and in my experience anyway, truly tripping and peaking for about four hours, then several more hours of a come down. So yeah, as the last person said about 6 hours of the actual trip but give yourselves more to account for the come up and such.

"3. later in the night we will be useing cocaiine. will this be a problem?"

Some people like mixing stimulants with psychedelics...many more do not, on your first experience it is probably not a good idea :)

"4. if someone feels uncomfortable by the trip what can he she do? will a line of cocaine sober you up? benzos?"

I would strongly not recommend using cocaine for this, it would quite possibly make the problem much worse. Any benzo will help bring the trip down pretty quickly.

"5. lets say i get a phone call and i need to act semi sober on the phone. is this possible or will i be all over the place?"

As DividedSky said. Maybe you could, may be not, i have found the biggest problem to be my pupil size and body language rather than speech and the actual knowledge that these are the problems if you know what i mean. Still speaking on the phone whilst peaking would probably be tricky, and at any time it would most likely be inconvenient, so as DividedSky said just turn it off.

Have a great first time ;)
 
The above posts answers your questions moderatly well , The only thing I have to add is to #5. Just last week I was in a situation (not my self) but a close friend of mine who is fairly experienced in mushrooms. And he got a call from his mom , and his trip from there went terrible he said his mom knew at his first sentance , I think by the way he was articulating his sentacnes and said she was coming to pick him up from the place we were right then and there. Which like I said , was a trip ruiner. So Turning your phone off, or being able to ignore calls which you think will bring negative situations or conversations to the table would be your best bet
 
dont do the yay till you are already down all the way. benzos will calm someone down nicely if they are trippin too hard, and so will alchohol, but try and chill them out by talkin to them or somethin first. it will take away from the trip so use that as a last resort. have fun.
 
What would be the dose range for pure 4-HO-DMT HCl? Would 15mg be equal to around an eighth of cubensis? Making 30mg like 2 eighths?

I've never dosed this in pure form before, so I would like you guys' opinions.

Also, is there a site that says the average psilocin content (in mg) of an eighth of a variety of different psilocybe strains? Like "psilocybe cubensis - 15mg"?
