I've only tripped during the night... And I've never asked what kind of shrooms they were when I bought them, or have had the knowledge to identify them.

Shrooms are really good during the day and night however during theday i find the experience less visual and the sun peneterates my eyes, it's really damn bright. I have tried azur twice and i got to say anyone wanting a life changing trip should try them. They propeled me into the mushroom realm with no effort what so ever. I like all shrooms though because they all do somehting else. Even shity cubes can do substantial things to the mind and body.

my first trip was at a concert (Keller Williams, Rat dog, and the String Cheese Incident). I ate 3.5 grams, and damn was it fun. dancing in the sunshine while tripping my mind out is still to this day the most fun I've ever had.
I've also tripped at night with some friends...that was equally fun. I ate about 4 grams of some not-cubies (don't know what kind), and sat in my friend bedroom for 9 hours watching the ceiling melt and swirl in rythms... very relaxing and spiritual.

I wasn't sure what mushroom i had i marked cubensis just because its the most common. I wouldn't recommend more then 1/8 for first time just to see how you react to it. Dark dulls down the trip and gets kinda boring but night is ok if there are lights and stuff. For some reason i can't sleep at all after I take shrooms so if i take them at night ill be up until sunrise. Is that normal?

God! I can't believe I read the whole thread!! But it is all god stuff, and the poll is very good indeed.
Which kinds of Mushrooms did you use? -I also chose P.C. because that is most likely what I have had most the time.
Dosage questions - I always thought of 1/2 of an 1/8 (about 1.75 g) to be sort of "standard". I guess it was always a convenient quantity, because two friends could split an 1/8 or whatever. If you wanted to trip harder, you could split 1/4 among two or three. Of course, if you are producing it yourself, these arbitrary street-quantities have no significance to you.
Solo/group thing - In my early days of tripping, which started with LSD in senior year of HS and continued with LSD and 'shrooms into college, it was always a group thing. We were a close-knit group of adventurers and I would personally feel uncomfortable if someone left the room for a long time or something like that. I just felt the need for everyone to be together. I have never dosed completely alone, but I have now had trips where I dosed with a friend but didn't necessarily hang out with that person constantly throughout the trip.
I definitely agree with the critique regarding "Do you close your eyes or like darkness when you trip?" There should be a choice, "Never tried it" and maybe "Indifferent". Believe it or not, I have done mushrooms at least half a dozen times, but I have never experimented with closed-eyes visuals or tried sitting in a completely dark room. During my college years, we had plenty of black lights, lave lamps and stuff like that around, so we would often have no bright light, just colorful glow, but not darkness.
As far as outside/indoors, I need some of both. I could not stand being indoors for an entire trip. That would drive me NUTS! I could understand if you were underage and had a curfew in your town or whatever, but even as a minor, we always wandered around town while tripping. But after a good adventure, coming back to the warm comfortable house and having a glass of tea or hot chocolate or something, maybe putting on slippers and comfortable clothes, is extremely ... well, comfortable. I call it "Home Base".
Day-tripping/Night-tripping – I think that if you are really a nature lover, you have to trip in the day or at least towards sunset sometimes (or at sunrise). To me, there is something very special about the deep colors produced by living and natural things when illuminated by pure sunlight, especially when it is summer and the sun is fairly direct and the spectrum is full. I agree that the sun seems very bright when tripping. But it is worth it to feel the life-energy of DAYTIME when tripping. Tripping at night can be very cool though. It can be literally cool, which is pleasant in the summer or early fall, when you get a little overheated and a breath of cool air refreshes you.
I did the early morning trip on LSD once. I was living in a dorm (Chadbourn in Madison, WI for anyone who knows the area) and a buddy was visiting from another town. We each set a hit of acid, on the aluminum foil it was wrapped in, right next to the alarm clock and set it for 5 or 6 am. It went off and we dropped the hits. I probably had to punch my buddy and yell at him to shove it in his mouth because he is a deep sleeper and probably wouldn’t be conscious enough to remember the plan until thoroughly awoken. But our plan was to not thoroughly awake until the LSD woke us up, so after dropping we fell back asleep with the paper still on tongue. We were accustomed to sleeping until noon at the time, so this was super-freakin early. But it worked great. After about 30 or 40 minutes, we both slowly woke up, and the more we woke up, the more we realized we were fully tripping. We went from sleep to peaking in 10 minutes. Well, maybe not quite peaking, but definitely way beyond the “I don’t now, maybe I feel it” stage.
Now, this day just happened to be one of the coldest of the whole winter. It was probably well below zero (°F) and we wandered down to the community room on our floor. This room had a big window that looked out over the city towards the state capital and we were eleven stories off the ground. Because of the extreme cold, there were plumes of stark white “smoke” rising off of everything, moisture freezing out of the air being ventilated from buildings, boiler systems, etc. We then got all bundled up and walked all over town, but nothing was open yet! We did eventually wander into the capitol building and licked the bronze badger outside of the governor’s office. I think we were pretty much done tripping by early in the afternoon.
Back to the poll…I also agree there should be a couple more choices for ingestion. There are various extractions, honey, blended up in juice (personal fave).
But overall, very good and interesting. Thanks.

I'd like to take shrooms every morning, just to get me through each day. Too bad it doesn't work that way. In the day, flowers and bees become fascinating life partners, while squirrels have recognizable anxieties and desires. At night, just close your eyes and watch the light show, or focus on almost anything new and be in awe of what you discover there.

Of course, I should deny that I am speaking from experience, but you see that would be cowardice, and I look up with pride toward the "brave hearts" from my deep heritage who come to me in my dreams when I touch the Goddess.

I have thought about experimenting with low-dose muchroom usage on a daily basis, similar to the low-dose experiments that were being done with LSD when it was legal. Maybe 0.1 to 0.5 grams per day, possibly even spaced out, like 0.25 grams in the morning and 0.25 in the afternoon or whatever. Now, I am talking ground and homogenized powder (multiple shrooms and even multiple harvests mixed all together for consistancy). If you were to make an extraction that could be stored for a while and encapsulated for daily use, it would just look like a vitamin or something. Of course it would be a "nutritional supplement".

I'm just curious what you would hope to get out of that? I'm not knocking it, except the ground powder would give you the same digestive challenges that eating whole dried fruits can do.
What would the low doses do for someone? Is it to put you more in touch with something, but without affecting your conscious mind in a noticeable way? I wonder, as you build up tolerance, what effect if any you would get long term.
Let us know if you go at it for any length of time.

Well, experiments were done with LSD "back in the day" by scientists and others with the theory that it could positively effect creativity. Also, I think someone else in this thread, or possibly some other thread, mentioned a reduction of OCD tendencies with low-dose mushrooms, which would be helpful for me.

Both seem interesting, and I wonder how different they really are. I mean I think maybe there is something about OCD which inhibits creativity, or something about boosting creativity which reduces OCD.
I haven't read as much about LSD as I want to, partly because I just want to stay away from it. But my impression is that with psylocybin, unlike LSD, if you ingest it daily you soon become unable to feel the effect very clearly for normal dosages. Maybe some aspects of the effect naturally becomes sublimated? In which case it could have some effect on creativity still, I would think.
Anyway, I would be careful, obviously, but I do think it could be worth trying, if you are really commited to it and have the stock on hand. It may not be for most people, but could work for some.

Well, I think any hallucinogenic blows away patterned behavior and allows one to have more of an appreciation for free will. They usually enhance the awareness of the now; the sense that the present moment is a continuously reborn experience and that anything could happen or be made to happen at any time.
In my own case, I usually become much more aware that I alone limit myself more than the outside world does, because I am ruled by patterned behavior and patterned thinking. And I wouldn't necessarily say I have extreme OCD type behaviors, I don't need to turn around five times before entering a room or anything like that, but I do waste a lot of my life worrying about things that don't matter and doing things that don't really need to be done, and hallucinogenics have truly made me aware of this. Now, I haven't tripped in a pretty long time, so I have probably lost a lot of perspective on where I am at. I hope to soon get that perspective back.

Shrooms definitely give a euphoric boost, and make you feel like you finally can get past a lot of things you thought you never could. And unlike pot, it's usually more realistic inspiration that you can actually do something with. That's a big "in my humble opinion", and I probably don't know what I'm talking about anyay.
The important thing is to keep at it once you realize what it is you were meant to do, and to commit to it, whatever it is. I think that has to be the only way to paradise, figuratively speaking. Unless of course you have a super-model slumber party going on at your place. Then please let us all know. I can get on a plane real fast.
