Lemon tek questions?

If I usually do an eighth to get a good trip, would using the lemon tek make it kick in faster and be more intense? That's what the guys post said but I'm yet to try it.
Would using Lemon Squirt (out of the little bottle brand name "Sicilia") work or do I need actual lemons?
How long should I let the broken up shroom bits soak in the juice?
If I want it to taste better can I let it soak with some sort of pop too? Or should I just chase it with the pop because the lemon won't do what it's supposed to do if there's another liquid in there?

The lemon defiantly makes it kick in faster i lemon tek'ed 5g of cubes and had things breathing in less than 15 minutes. As to if it makes the trip stronger i have no idea.
I decided against using lemon squirts and just used a lemon. I also throw in a couple vitamin c tablets. As for how long I'm not exactly sure but i would think anything more than 1 hour would be overkill.
For the pop, i would just chase it; less "shroom laden" liquid to deal with while downing. And it's not really going to taste that great no matter what you put in it.
Have fun.

It lasted overall only 3 hours for me and started in about 10 minutes. They say the trip is also stronger.

Pretty much, all the lemon tek does is increase the absorption time, sometimes dramatically. So yes, it can potentially make the trip stronger.

If it's a stronger trip, would that mean it's shorter? My friends tried this as their first time method... and it only lasted like 2-3 hours with 1.75 grams.
I've had trips last as long as 6-7 taken dry.
which would be better if the lemon tek makes it shorter? the normal trip or the stronger shorter trip

^Yes, increased absorption rate means a shorter duration. Which is "better" is entirely your preference. Which would you prefer? We can't answer that for you.

What claims are made about this "tek" (that is, what does it achieve)? What is the hypothetical mechanism behind this "teks" efficacy? What is the evidence that this "tek" is effective?

Lemon juice is highly acidic (pH=2) and I'm not exactly sure what makes it so effective.

^Essentially, the idea behind the lemon tek is that the acidic lemon juice will extract the active alkaloids from powdered mushrooms, increasing the absorption rate, decreasing duration and increasing peak plasma levels.

Would the tek make the peak longer or shorter? Or does it just increase how strong it is?

the powder should turn blue in the lemon juice, so i'd assume the whole trip is somewhat more stronger and shorter than just eating the zooms

^ when I used the lemon squirt thing it didn't turn blue. I broke up the shrooms by hand so there were still little chunks and all that.

i've done it once. The one time I did they were easy to powder and they soaked for a few mins and it was turning blue.

lemon tek had me trippin within 15 mins.
only lasted like 4 or 4 1/2 hours though. which is also kinda useful for a shorter trip, if your low on free time or just don't want to be up all night.
But it was crazy...barely had time to smoke a joint!

What about doing 1/16th soaked in lemon and 1/16th just dried, how would that work out?
Anybody ever tested or willing to test?

lemon tek always made me trip harder off much less. hits faster, and while ive had it last shorter, it usualy gives me a damn good 8 hours.
mixing 1/2 lemon tek 1/2 dry would definatly have it hit you fast, and most likely last longer. since the lemon would soak in quick, and the dry would soak in slower.
i say try it and have fun man. and add some sugar to mask the taste, and have a chaser. its easy to drink, it just has a nasty aftertaste.
P.S. tea only turns blue because of the spores. if your all stems it wont turn blue =)
