I'm going to be tripping over the holidays with some Amazonian Cubensis (?), which are supposedly pretty potent and I was wondering what dosage would be good to start off with? I have no psychedelic experience, beyond a semi-trip-but-mostly-just-nausea on LSA. And I want an actual trip, not just a buzz. Also, I presume it's easy enough to just split the amount I have (5 grams) a few times to get the dosage? I don't have a scales and likely won't be able to get one soon. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
splitting those between 3 people would be good for first timers IMO. If you want a fuller flavor split it between 2. That still shouldn't be too much.
half of the 5g should be fine. You might not want to eat them straight as that causes nausea for some people, I think because the plant matter is hard to digest. Eat them in a penutbutter and shroom sandwich or make tea. Any thing you can think of, get creative. Also smoking changes your trip, more for some than for others. I can't say if it will make it better or worse for you but its worth looking into. As for a mind set going in to the trip try this. Get plenty of sleep the night before the tripp, and be fully reasted. Eat a small breakfest and a small lunch then and nothing elss untill you consume your shrooms, hopefully you are hungry when you eat them, but not tired. Dont do anything for a few hours before the trip, just relaxe and get your mind of any problem or things you have been thinking about. Get comfortabole and then prepare your shrooms takeing your time to enjoy it all. Eat your shrooms and sit back and relaxe and try to forget about them. When you start coming up DONT fight anything, that will cause a bad tripp. If you just relaxe and do what the shrooms want you to(with in reasson) you will have a blast, if you try to fight it all night you will be in for a long scary tripp. Also if you are still tripping and you want to go to bed, dont! Its not only really hard to fall asleap but your mind focus on your problems and can end up freaking you out a little.
In my experience, well cared home grown shrooms are more potent than the ones they sell on the streets. If you know they are amazonian, well they might just be awesome . Start with 2 g, you could have a pretty strong trip if your stomach isnt full.
Thanks for the help guys. I appreciate it. I'll probably go with about 2 grams. I'll let you know how it goes, I should be tripping in about a week. I'll be off in this house in the countryside with just me and my friend so it'll be pretty nice.
I found this awesome artical on tripping for the first time. I am also planning to do so in the near future. http://www.shroomery.org/6256/The-Psychedelic-Experience-FAQ
mmmm The *difference between psychedelic drugs* part is very interesting! Description of visuals too! Should be the answer to those who ask the diff between l and psilo!
yep. I hope the article helps (you and me both!) I am interested in using psichadelics as a spiritual aid, and this article seems really good, and explains everything really well as far as I can tell. i am glad to have found it.
Hey, thanks for the article, it was very helpful. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to trip. Oh well. I guess it will have to wait until the summer, now.
oh summer is pretty far away, i just ate some mushies on friday and i had work the next morning at 12, but i felt perfectly fine. Half of it is just in your mind anyway, i say eat em on a weekend and enjoy the extra-sensory-perception
