Which ones more potent: 1 BIG shroom or many small shrooms? Same amount of grams...

Is there a difference in potency if you take 1 big shroom that weighs 3g vs many shrooms that equal the same weight?
This is inregards to Psylocibin mushrooms.
I think... taking multiple shrooms will have a greater effect, even if they were small? I don't know... someone help please...

Weight is weight. Each mushroom varies in potency but there is still an average potency for a given species.

So what your saying is that... potency can be acheived both ways? How is that possible is each individual mushroom contains a "fixed" amount of Psylocin and Psylocibin?

It is not fixed.
Like I said, every mushroom VARIES in potency, although there is an average amount of potency to be expected from a given species.
Either way, youre going to have a good time.
I suggest you eat the big one

aborts are small and they contain a higher concentration of alkaloids. I don't know if it would make a big difference, but I would choose an 8th of a bunch of small mushrooms over one big mushroom

Far to many variables to consider, size of cap, diameter, density, actual amount of psilocybin, etc.
But regardless, I'd rather have a bunch of aborts, unless the single mushroom had a huge cap.

you do know caps aren't any more potent then stems. they have the same amount in it.

You do know that's completely false. Caps are more potent

Sweet~! SO what your saying is... you will get the same amount of potency you would get if being small... as you would it being big? Size doesn't matter! =)... it's the amount of individual mushrooms you consume. Right?
But even then... strains still play a big part. Does it not?

You do NOT get the same amount per mushroom no matter the size you get the same amout per gram no matter the size of the invidual mushroom(s) that make(s) up the gram.

There has been discussion of smaller fruits being more potent, but i dont know if it was ever proved.
So, if you had several small fruits weighing a total of 30 grams, they may be more potent than a single 30 gram fruit.
Aborts are considered to be more potent per gram of meterial.
if its not strong enough, just eat more
