The Big and Dandy Basic Psilocybin Mushroom Questions Thread (Arch 3-18-07 - 4-21-08)

The substrate used to grow will have a much greater effect on potency (use some sort of poo). That said, PESA is a strong strain.
 
Regarding the nausea, it's good to make the tea with other herbs which are known to diminish nausea. For me, the best is ginger, for it seems to diminish nausea in two ways:
1. Ginger performs this function generally.
2. If allowed to brew for 15 minutes, it will be strong enough to mask the taste and smell of mushroom tea which would make me nearly sick by itself.

Thanks to samadhi_smiles, he helped me out too.. :) Actually, thanks to everyone who posted in the other thread, you guys all helped me somehow.

And kong, I know the substrate and whatnot matters more than the variety of cubensis. But, since the mushrooms are all grown by the same guy under the same conditions, just consider everything constant except for the variety of Psilocybe Cubensis, k?
 
mushroom dosage

how many grams of fresh cube mushrooms would it take for me to trip


how many grams would i need if i decided to make tea?
 
sory, my bad

i weigh about 150lbs, havent taken many psycs before, but i wanna trip pretty hard

and im a guy


thanks
 
That would be dried. That's probably enough for a good trip with very potent mushrooms, if they aren't that great you might want an entire eighth. (3.5g)

This is all dried, I'm not sure of the weight for fresh...I'm sure you can find an equivalence chart or something somewhere on the internet.
 
Try using the shroom dosage calculator at shroomery.org. It's quite thorough and reasonably accurate as far as starting points go. :)
 
There's really no way to determine that, and there haven't been any formal studies I'm aware of.

No one can give you an answer. The best one could attempt is to grow them all under attempted constant conditions, make a joke of an effort to compare the effects objectively, and see which strain suits him/his conditions.
 
i dont know for sure, but in my experiance, most tropical strains are way more potent, like 2 grams of ecuador got me as fucked up as like 4 grams of B+. ecuadors are a lot smaller in size and even taste and chew better. one of my fav strains. ive heard good thing about hawaiian something or another. damn im wasted.
 
and there are pretty big differences in trips between strains, maybe not necessarily potency. like visual vs. body.

No. A few people claim they can tell which cubensis strain they've taken but I don't think any of them could take capsules of dried mushroom powder and say which strain it was. It's a bet I'd take anyway.
 
Merged this mushroom varieties question into the basic mushroom questions thread. Please keep all basic questions about mushrooms in this thread so that we can go through it later and add them all the FAQ that is being made.

Thanks! :)
 
I just merged a basic mushroom question thread into here. Come on people, let's start posting those in here instead of as new threads, to reduce forum clutter and make it easier to write the FAQ.
 
Merged this thread with the Big and Dandy basic mushrooms questions thread. I know this was rediorected, but in the future, if you come back here with questions, please post questions about mushrooms, LSD, mescaline/cactus, and DXM in their corresponding Big and Dandy Basic Questions threads. This will reduce forum clutter and make it easier to compile the FAQs about them later on. Once the FAQs are in place, Bluelight will have a comprehensive resource on all the questions one might ask about those most common of psychedelic drugs.

:)
 
just tripped for my first time in a while, n first time getting a good dose. these questions help out.

i heard that if you puke the trip will be less intense? i donno, i tripped hard as fuck and puke my brains out, so i dont think this is true, still i wouldnt really know. i tripped alone, meaning that i was with a bunch of people for a while (all pretty experienced) which was alright, but it still got kind of annoying when people kept asking me if i saw this or felt that ect i was just like ' lemmi fucking experience it, haha its completely different anyways'
 
For number one, I think the best idea for you would be to either try some gravol (anti nausea med) or brew up some mushroom tea with ginger in it, ginger is a naturally occurring anti nausea resource.

As for the other questions, I wouldn't want to mislead you with incorrect answers, but for the anxiety med stuff I'm sure you can check the Drug FAQs for contradictions and stuff!

Best of luck & Happy Tripping!

This thread discusses using metoplacramide (fuck I can't spell that word) as an antiemetic. Read the thread andf the links to wiki.

2Ci, and LSD (being very different) are hard to compare to mushrooms- however, I find 2ci more euphoric and MDxx-like and very visual, but not that mental, LSD more cold and focused, analytical sifting through the subconcious, pattern finding etc. Mushies are a slower dremlike feeling for me, with initial anxiety based stimulation. I would use a small dose of xanax (500mcg) to counter act that, its not a neccesary part of the trip IMO (anxious comeup). Though conquering cn be empowering.....

I truly belivev that the idea of purging is somewhat misguided, its a physical reaction usually precluded by feaar (for me). The only true purgative with possible healing powers I've observed would be ayahuasca, no admixture. Have fun :)
 
Also for nausea try herbs, like chammomile or peppermint, or dried ginger in tablets or capsules. Also sedatibing adrenal herbs like Skullcap can ease a baddish trip feeling- I wouldn't have believed an innocuous tea like Skullcap could have any effect, but with LSD i was increasingly sensitised to the sedatingrelaxing qualities of it. Valerian can be good too, if you believe.
