 5 dried grams of Liberty Caps (Psilocybe semilanceata) and Terence Mckenna question.

Can a trusted confirm that the Liberty Cap (Psilocybe semilanceata) is a more potent mushroom than say a Cubensis? I have read a lot of stories about it being more potent etc. and would like to get a recommendation on a heroic dose of Liberty Caps.
Would a 5 dried grams of Libs be more than required when compared to a heroic dose of Cubes?
Also, when McKenna speaks about a heroic dose in silent darkness, does anybody know if he says this with regards to a specific mushroom?

I wish I was lucky enough to pick and chose different strains of mushrooms to trip on. I haven't even seen or been offered mushrooms in over a year. Whenever I have shroomed in the past (40+ times) it's just random shrooms. I'd love to go somewhere or meet someone where all sorts of strains are available, like Amsterdam used to be with smartshops.

5 gm of liberty caps is a good dose.... Great mushroom by they way
Yes, liberty caps are normally more potent than cubes, handling, age, growing conditions, etc aside ( gram for gram basis)
5 gm would be in the realm of heroic doses, yes

McKenna spoke almost exclusively about Stropharia Cubensis(or P. Cubensis, as we now call it), and his book, The Magic Mushroom Grower's Guide, co-authored with his brother, I believe only considers the cultivation of P. Cubensis. So to answer your question, yes. He specifically talks about heroic doses on P. Cubensis. I have never heard him mention an experience on any other species.
I think libs are a little more potent than cubes... I doubt you will be dissapointed on 5 grams.

5 grams of liberty caps may be a little too much. 1.5 grams of dried liberty caps equates to about 3.5 grams of cubensis. I think 3 grams would be more than enough to achieve the kind of experience Terence McKenna was promoting.
Still, you're welcome to push it as far as you can and see what you find.

Thanks man  I doubt it would disappoint either, ha. You ever ventured that far down the rabbit hole?

I think that dried liberty caps are around 40% stronger than dried cubes. So, 5 grams of libs could be like 7 grams of cubes.
