# How much liquid did you drink the powder with? the 2 shots of juice and 375ml wine and 1 dry gram of 6-8 small cubes ground . # Time to "first alert" 20min and I knew id taken the psilly . # Time to onset of visual disturbance ~60 min . # Time to peak (rough estimate)90-100min . # Time to first sign of diminishing effects 175min
# Time to baseline (indiscernible effects)asleep on couch by 245min
Verdict...It works to a degree. I would not claim more that a 2x intensification at the most...ill give you all the background.
I worked a 10 hour day yesterday. On my way to work at 10am I grabbed 2 lemons. Squeezed them and added the 1 gram of ground cubes. I let this sit till 8pm when it was consumed. I ate and average lunch at 2 pm then a very small sandwich and small side potato salad at 430. The toughest(and I believe most relevant)part about this whole thing for me was the empty stomach. I food.
So I left work 5 early to be home by 8 went down to my bar put on a phish show, started a stopwatch, and took the 2 psilly lemon shots. I also get a 375ml of boysenberry wine (medium acidity) and poured half into a glass to to enjoy as I sat and watched my reef fish tank, a common after work activity. I also smoked 2 hits of kind, but smoking and drinking here are only vaguely pertinent sine I'm always toking and drinking, but I will list amounts.
About a half hour in I realize I'm coming up pretty good for a gram, by the 4th song into set one I'm rocking. 5th song is longer but by the jam i'm trippin, but not hard. All throughout the first hour I'm convinced its just the empty stomach and ground shrooms, but from t60-t90 I'm starting to change my mind. Im still watching the fish tank but things are starting to change. Colors pop, the whole vibe "purple hazes" out and I am definitely high. The shrimp venturing into open water and hoping from rock to rock is hilarious.
So by t90 Im starting to think that there is something to this. I take care of a couple quick things and settle onto the couch for the 2nd set. I grab my bowl and get out the extra kind, and take 2 hits of that. Down With Disease...sweet. So I'm chilling on the couch and as DWD hits the jam the visions start to come. A few sinister flashes. I do get the brief "presence in the room" even tough no one is home by me and the cat. But the visions come too. The most coalesced was of a crack in the fabric of existence I could see in from of me that was spewing lava/liquid/energy. It was pretty cool. Typical pilocybin stuff. Not the most colorful, but pretty visionary.
There is prolly 15 min of this but ass the jam fades into an ambient sort of thing looking for the next song, Twist, I find myself really getting out there. Into a space that no longer feels to be my couch and basement, a place I can only describe as a spherical dream-space. Still, mushrooms stuff Im used to but not 100 min after eating a gram.
So I listen to more phish, but as the 2nd set draws on my hunger is starting to interfere with the trip. I'm trying not to eat because I would like to see if the quick comedown is true as well, but I also feel like Ive been as high as I'm going to get, no more acceleration. At this point I decide that Ive gotten most of the gram's worth worked out already. In hindsight I was right. I get a pint of ale in an attempt to stave off eating.
By t175 min I need to eat. Im still high and undecided if I'm coming down but I'm def done peaking and need to eat. I go upstairs get some pizza, mac and cheese, and another pint. I watch Top Chef and eat my diner. By the time the show is over, I no longer am keeping track of time on my trip. I'm not baseline, but I'm back to what I would normally be doing if I were awake at this time. I get another pint put on "the League" and fall asleep on the couch.
Today I still feel the same as I would if I had eaten a gram yesterday, but I definitely processed the drugs quicker and they hit harder than they normally did.
But ultimately that doesn't turn 1g into 2g. It just makes 1g hit harder and fade quicker.
That being said, last nite was a fantastic nite. It worked pretty much how I expected it to from reading the thread.

Why does it work?
Yes, try it. Go back not too many pages & there is a discussion on possible mechanisms of it (maybe there are more earlier, but I'm just referring you to the one that I can recall, & that I was a part of), but the bottom line is that it's not known for certain.
-------------------- Every part of this country is sacred to my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove has been hallowed by some fond memory or some sad experience of my tribe.
Even the rocks... as they swelter in the sun along the silent seashore in solemn grandeur thrill with memories of past events... and the very dust under your feet responds more lovingly to our footsteps than to yours, because it is the ashes of our ancestors, and our bare feet are conscious of the sympathetic touch, for the soil is rich with the life of our kindred.
And when the last red man shall have perished from the earth and his memory among white men shall have become a myth, these shores shall swarm with the invisible dead of my tribe.

2g of Amazon soaked for 1 hour in the juice of 2 lemons. When it was time, I mixed in tonic water and downed it. This is the best tasting method I have found to date. It took about 20 minutes for it to kick in.
I tried to mimic the John Hopkins study a little bit, in that I covered my eyes and stayed in bed the whole trip (other than to go to the bathroom). This is now my favorite way - just turned inward and processed everything that needed to be processed.
