Other - Different Ways to do Mushrooms

[DazedPerception]

okay, so again I managed to get my hands on some shrooms. I have only done them twice, both times doing a half 8th. I did them for the second time exactly one week after the first, and the trip was a lot less intense. I was hoping to do about an 8th tonight, but I'm only going to be able to do half again. It has been like 2 months since the last time I did them, which brings me to my first question: Willhaving waited a couple months but not upping the dosage make it more intense than say my second time?


Also, I really hate the taste of the shrooms. When I eat them I gag, and sometimes have a hard time keeping them down, although I have never thrown up before. I'm looking for some other ways to eat them. I have been told that crushing them up, mixing them in some juice and taking some vitamin c pills would be a good idea..does crushing them up and mixing them in juice have any affect on the intensity of the shrooms opposed to simply eating them? Does vitamin c actually increase the visuals or is it just a myth?


Thanks for your taking your time to read/respond to this.

This time should be more intense than that second time if you've waited
a couple months. Shroom tolerance goes away fairly quick.

SWIM can't stand the taste of shrooms either, and usually blends them
with grape juice. It doesn't affect the potency or anything,
but you'll come up a lot faster this way (empty stomach).

I think the general consensus on that vitamin C thing is that it's a
myth. In fact, I've heard many times that it will actually bring
you down from a trip (However, eating an orange flavored vitamin C
tablet or citrus fruit a slice of lemon or lime is the craziest
sensation ever).

lol im weird the taste dont bother me , i kinda enjoy them


i once smoked a spliff packed with shrooms. I dont know if it did anything. It felt wierd , really wierd.


a mate also had a shroom bong while on pills. he said it fucked his head off , and it did look like it did , his eyes kept twiching and his expression was so funny.


ive heard smoking it dont work though (shrug)

SWIM likes to blend them with orange juice. Ends up this green
sludge color, but is fairly easy to drink. Also you can boil
shrooms in water and then use the water in some form of drink.
This way you dont eat any of the shrooms and it hits much faster in my
opinion. You can even just microwave the water untill its really
hot and drop your shrooms in with a tea package or something and let
sit for a little while.(if your too lazy too boil). SWIM has had
success with all of these methods.

The active subtances in shrooms are reduced by heat. So while drinking shroom is angood way of dosing shrooms, I would not boil the shrooms themselves and would not store the mushroom tea. There are a few great treads on using shrooms in this forum. Use the search engine.

pour realy hot water into cafetiere over shrooms.add herbal tea bag,we like strawberry flavour,steep for 15 minutes,then drink.you cant taste the shrooms for the strawberry flavour and you come up quicker as well.

Any one else besides shneddi ever smoke shrooms? If so, what were its effects.


I have been thinking about this, and I am wondering if you can get high off of smoking shrooms.

Controversial on whether it works or not. Some people who try it
say it works, some say its just a waste. When SWIM tried it, it
didn't do shit. The smoke tastes bad, really bad.

One report I read said that if you smoke them in a bong with some weed,
you will get effects. Apparently it helps make the smoke taste
a little less gross. However, the author said that the visuals
were not near as intense as compared to taking them orally. And
the fact that they were smoked with weed makes me suspicious that it
could just be a placebo.

Anyway, even if you do get effects, they will be mild. SWIM'll stick with
eating them personally.

i dont think you can smoke psilocybin as heat degrades it too much,but i think you can smoke fly agaric to effect.i have come by some recently and will be trying smoking it.i will let you know the results.

[RoboCop]

What about soaking ground shrooms in high proof alcohol for a while draining the material, and drinking the alcohol? Since psilocybin is very alcohol soluable. This could make one hell of a drink, what negative effects can come with alcohol+shrooms? I know a friend who soaked shrooms in his store bought absinthe for an extra kick which is where I got the idea.

[serpent]

i had a freind who made who made blackberry wine with thousands of liberty cap mushrooms,it was amazing stuff.we came up on it in about 15 minutes and tripped for a couple of hours.alcohol would seem to have an even deeper relationship with psilocybin than one of pure extraction.

Mushroom tollerance builds up VERY quickly but thankfully it goes away
pretty quick too, I'd say leave it around a month and you should be
fine to trip (erowid.org will have exact details), 2 months will be
more than enough.



Also, I was given a recomendation by a guy selling me shrooms (in an
Amsterdam smart shop) that if I was tripping too hard, drinking orange
juice or anything with vitiman C would help reduce the intensity of the
trip, I'm not sure if thats 100% true but its worth considering and
looking into, could really spoil your trip if its true and you ingest them with lots of vit C.

its a strange one that,ive heard that vitamin c will strongly enhance shrooms/lsd,yet ive also heard it will bring the trip down.id like to see some evidence for either,it has effected me tripping both ways and i am inclined to believe that vitamin c only works as a placebo.

[billbong]

The mental mind set your in can highly affect the intensity (for me anyway). Also i coat them in peanut butter or in a pot noodle. if u do a pot noodle though be carful with the heat. How'd it go?

[jrock0069]

You could always try crushing up the shrooms and capsulating them if you really can't stand the taste. I personally love the taste of shrooms. As for smoking them, I've tried it and it didn't do shit. I didn't just take a few puffs either, I smoked like 5 bowls to the head and held that shit in for as long as I could. I felt absolutely NO effect what so ever.

Haven't seen any decent reports about smoking shrooms, would expect since heat degrades the stuff then burning would obliterate it. If someone were looking for complete maximum extraction, they could break the shrooms into little pieces and stuff them in their cheeks. The taste is supposed to be much less intense than chewing, but for those who find the taste intolerable it may not be enough. After the whole mass is stored away squirrel-style, just keep it soaking in saliva for another 10 mintues or so and then swallow. Big rides, such as over 7 grams, are probably a little hard to do this way - but if you can, HANG ON. Or so the reports say.


Otherwise, juice mixtures and extractions are the next best bet. However, stay away from heat. There are many different descriptions of alcohol extraction and reduction, but someone might start to wonder if a soak in wine and filtering out the mass might work good. Of course, the wine would be ingested and for maximum efficiency, so would the filtered mass. Perhaps the wine might make the mass much more palatable.

I had amushroom joint once, rottenno effects either. A good way to take your mushies is todice them all upputthem on a tablespoon stick em in your mouth and just take a big gulp of beer, works a treat. Putting them into capsules is the best idea ever, I have just made my first batch of mushroom pills and will beexperimenting with them on my 18th birthday in the woods!


Just wondering if capsuled mushies will have a stronger effect and peek. I will be hippyflipping for my first time doing 4g ofdried mexican.


Cheers

[big-lester]

I also had a shroom joint once but the effects where very low and I
found it a waste of your trip, just eat them, eat them with some
cookies It always helps for a friend of mine who hates the taste.
Another thing, smoking shrooms is very bad for you're longs.

[amblerg]

mushroom tea. SWIM also noted that honey in the tea can make it much more enjoyable. also, it is well noted on the forums that strong acids (digestable ones, of course. such as lemon or lime juice) can greatly potentate mushroom absorbtion. but be careful when making tea as heat used to make tea can destroy some of the psychoactive chemicals in mushrooms. so keep your heat hot but not too hot. best wishes to all!

You guys here were talking about doing Psilocybe Mushrooms, but I don't think any of you seemed to really get how to. The old dried 'shrooms have lost a lot of their potency. The only real way to experience them is to get em fresh. Right after it rains or early in the morning after the dew has settled head to your nearest cowfield and you can't miss them. I know they grow all over the south and the west as long as the fields haven't been salted. The one post I read here was talking about an 1/8 of dried mushrooms, that shouldn't barely do anything to you at all. When we used to pick them we'd get grocery bags full, at least 2-3 bags of em. There'd usually be a few hundred shrooms. Put em in a deep pan barely cover them with water and boil for 15-30 mins, until all the color has come out of them and the water's sludgy and thick. Mixing 2 packs of cool-aid (grape works best) completely masks the flavor. This will lead to a few hours of non-ordinary reality. I still remember my first encounter with them, it was 1991. It was the summer before I started 6th grade, I was 11-12 years old if you can believe it, but it changed my perception of the world and life in general in a good way. My friend and I literally thought we were crawling around on the ceiling for hours. But besides the recreational aspect it opened me up to a whole new world of belief and power.
I came to this site to research smoking Psilocybe Mushrooms. I had never thought to try it when we were still using them. I've read how native shamans would dry their mushrooms and grind them into a powder to smoke but then other places I've read that's bull and doesn't work. Does it matter what species of Psilocybe 'shroom it is or did people just do it wrong? It's been 10 years since my last trip and I've been getting that itch again to go find some lately. Maybe I can go to Mexico and find some "humito" and try being a crow this time. Any info anyone has will be greatly appreciated.

swim might try anal administration sometime soon will post back witht he results.
