Shrooming - First Time

[Kid Dynamite]

I am aware that this thread has been made shitloads of times but what the fuck.
I am considering trying shrroms with some good freinds of mine. We can get 10g (fresh) for £15 from a shop in our town. I have some questions...

- How would i go about drying them or whatever because i heard you cant eat them fresh?
- How much should i take on my first time?
- How long should i leave for the effects to wear off
- How should i take them ie just eat them, make tea ect
- And what should i expect to happen on my first time?

Thanks alot to anybody who answers!

A bunch of information on drying can be found here: http://www.shroomery.org/index/par/7913 . And for the other information check Erowids Mushroom Vault (http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms.shtml)

My first time I took them with frozen juice concentrate since the taste was horrible. I've heard of other people putting them in peanut butter and eatting it like that which seems like the best. Hope this helps.

You can eat them fresh, fresh is actually the best way. The drying process will reduce the potency of the mushrooms (especially using high amounts of heat, psilocin and psilocybin die off at low temperatures).

Assuming the 10:1 fresh to dry ratio, you should each consume around 20 grams fresh to feel an effect. Ask the owner of the store for a suggestion though, not all shrooms are hte same.

Give yourself at least 8 hours, shrooms don't go away that quickly.

Again, don't boil the shrooms. The heat (as low as 100 fahrenheit can destroy shrooms) will reduce the potency. Do not bake them into pizzas and such, just eat them with some simple carbohydrates like crackers with some peanut butter.

i put mine in a hot room with a really big fan for like 15 minutes and they stay potent!!!!!

oh yah you should take around 8 dried mushies to get a really amazing trip if there fresh you should take around 20 or ask the shop owner like rapmaster said

how much does around 20 cost? round about price..

Depends on the strain, shrooms are different sizes according to strain. Attempt to get 35 grams (fresh) for each person. Those shrooms being sold may actually not be fully fresh. Use (as a reference), 10 grams wet = 1 gram dried.

I use a food dehydrator (with no heat) to dry my grown shrooms.

30fresh or 3.5 dry would be a good dose to start on. Surround yourself in a good envoirnment, remember that you're under the influence of a drug, and just have a good time.

Enjoy...and give us a report! :)

ok i got 25grams of shrooms what should i do with them eat em fresh or dry em? of i dry em how should i dry them?

I dont see how 15 minutes can dry them, and they dont stay totally potent, during the drying process most of the psilocin degrades

[sanfrancyan]

Ok my favorite subject. There are 180 diiferent types of Psilocybin mushrooms. Not all are active. Depending on the area you live in you can either hunt em or buy em, and of course grow em. Potency of the shroom depend on when it was picked, what type of shroom it is and how it is prepared. For instance the shrooms i picked on Friday are Psilocybe Cyanofibrillosa they are a potent species when fresh due to high levels of psilocin and lower levels of pilocybin, (the ratios on most other mushrooms are reversed Ie high psilocybin low Because of the high levels of psilocin when dried they lose most of their potency because psilocin degrades in the drying process. Psilocybe Cubensis is the most widely cultvated Psilocybin mushroom because of its ease of growing and moderate levels of Psilocybin and Psilocin that are about equal. The best drying method i have used would be about two days in front of a fan and a day in a box with silica gell wwhich will suck all remaining water weight out of them.

But you can eat them fresh anyway cant you...i heard that apparently theyre more potent fresh. But they must be pretty hard to stomach. Inform me people....

My first shroom trip was too intense for me to handle.....i had eaten only 2g lmao....but im allergic to penniilin (a drug in mushrooms) so it fucks me up good......
anyway.....take 3g for a good first trip......iv eaten a ton of the things..i mean a full fukin stomache...so dont worry about OD'ing lmao.

yes its a huge ass fan lol it dries them super quik otherwise you can put it infront of a normal fan for an hour or 2 and there have been many researches about heat and the active compounds in mushrooms and so far there is no information that tells that it destroys it

Are you sure eating 25 grams of shrooms is a good idea? I usually take down an eighter (3.5 grams) and trip my balls off...
