Mushrooms Wet Vs. Mushroom Tea
View this Thread in Original format
dj_cuba
For some reason whenever I eat wet shrooms I only get a tiny effect. I took 45 grams wet on Saturday before a firework show but only got a very tiny effect. When I brew them in a tea for a couple of hours however they work great! Any thoughts on why there's such a difference in the potency?

45grams is quite alot so you should have been ed. i used to eat them fresh and i found that they worked better and kicked in quicker than making a tea or drying them out. try some different mushrooms

Well I took 30g of Indian and roughly 15g of Thai. I've never tried Indian before but I was told that they were strong. 45g is quite a lot but it's not a massive amount (not for a trip monkey like me anyway ;))

i find tea , heat s up the chem in mushies.

30 grams raw and in big chunks will get you ed big time!

if you have it in tea ther eis less effect and it kicks in way quicker (but last about half the time) due to the heat and they juices seeping out the mushies in the tea.

dry i find makes them less potent too.

what do you mean by wet, just raw mushies?

yeah just raw mushies. Another thing about eating raw mushies is that they nearly always make me violently sick, aparently if you don't chew them well they increase the chance of you puking up. Maybye it's just me :(

Mexican are weak as far as visuals are concerned but I love the way they make you laugh! My fave are amazonians, wicked visuals and a massive ecstacy like buzz :D

yeh, you gag o nthe big bits, but the less you chew the betetr the trip. i always cut them up into pill sized chunks, and do loads of swallows. it can take 30misn to an hour to consume them all but it sure works. ive been taking mushies for a while now and 30g using the method i use gets you right ed after about 2-3 hours, and lasts about 4-6 hours from there, at least 3 hours on full power. this is a pretty decent level of trippyness, but id say 40g this way would send you into a proper psychadelic coma.

Heat doesn't effect the chemicals in the shrooms, it is purely the fact that your brew does not remove 100% of the psyco active drug from the raw material. You are right about dried mushrooms they do lose some of their potency during the process.

The only difference created by the size of the bits you eat is how quickly you come up/down and the intensity of the trip. Thoroughly chewed shroom are more likely to affect you quickly and be more intense to start with but the trip will not be as long.

As for the dose 30 - 40 grams fresh is about average for the majority of commercially available mushrooms. For a hardcore trip i would suggest 30g of Hawiian cubensis otherwise known as "blue meanies".

Last week a mate and i tried 15g of the hawiians and 2 1/2 hours into the trip we blasted a fat line of Charles and i have to say the effects were awesome.

When I tried the amazonians, which was one of the stronger trips I have had I cut the mushrooms up really small before simmering them for a couple of hours. I guess it was stronger becuase by cutting them up it's much easier for the psilocin to escape into the water. You would think that once the pieces had been boiled they would be easier to chew, but they actually end up tasting much worse! Hopefully I will be trying 20g of hawiaans soon :)
