Dosing and Tolerance Questions...
#14502816 - 05/24/11 03:53 AM (12 years, 9 months ago) |

So during the first week of April, me and some friends pooled some money together to get mushrooms. It was extremely fun, but we each only took 1.5, resulting in an excellent body high and slight, slight, slight visuals such as breathing walls. To be honest, just looking down at my arms was a great time. Needless to say, we all enjoyed the effects and decided to try it again down the road.
So we ended up waiting until this last Saturday, the 21st. We got our hands on some goodies that supposedly contained 2 grams of mushys each. The effects were definitely stronger than the last time, but nothing too spectacular. I'm not claiming to be some sort of shroom professional, meaning that I have yet to experience the effects enough to know the ins and outs, but i would definitely say that we each got 20 dollars worth of enjoyment as far as the length of the trip and the way it helped me to think on a deep philosophical level.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any input on whether or not it would be a good idea to double the dose, lets say, around the 27th. I'm not worried about anything except tolerance. Visuals aren't my goal either, I naturally think about existence, life, death and everything in between, and during the few times I have tried mushrooms, I seem to be able to think twice as deeply into the topic as when sober or high on cannabis. I've read up on other sites, and all of the answers for tolerance vary greatly. From what I understand, it's different for every person and everyone seems to have their own opinion on the perfect time to wait between trips. A lot of what I've read says that if you dose up 2 days in a row, that you should double the dose for the same effects. Will this roughly a week interval make the difference between doubling the dose for the same effects and doubling the dose for greater effects?
I just want to make sure that I won't be wasting my money. I've made this account in order to get the most out of every experience that i have for the rest of my tripping career, I'm sorry if there are similar posts but some answers would be much appreciated.

yo dude in the first few weeks of shroom season in Melbourne i tripped every few days for 2 weeks 6 times, you will be fine for tolerance i didnt really notice any major tolerance and yeah man if you think that you are nice and clear headed on 2 gs go the 4 but remember the more you take the effects keep doubling....2gs=level 2 trip 4gs being a high level 3 8gs would rape your mind level 5 definitely even the fabled climax (complete loss of reality and even the feeling of your own body) for the low tolerance
--------------------
good vibes and happy tripping

Thanks guys! I'm definitely fully prepared for a higher level trip, I havent had more than a level 2, but a strong level 3 or a level 4 sounds amazing. I think I'll leave the Level 5 trips to the professionals :p I've had some amazing trips off of salvia, so I don't fear anything more intense than that coming from 4 or 5 grams, but you never know and it lasts a LOT longer. The only real problem is that, since they are covered in chocolate, i have no REAL knowledge of how much is in each ball aside from what my dude tells me.

Well, I'm definitely going to look around and see if i can find any dry mushrooms, no harm in trying, but as far as i know my connects all go through the same guy. And he just turned his last ounce into these treats on Saturday. Like I said, I'm no professional, the feelings were worth the 20$, but for all i know i could be getting twice as gone for the same price with some dry mushrooms.

Damn, around here it's 10 a gram and nobody makes exceptions. I need to expand my friend base ahah If i could get shrooms for 25 an 8th, that would be amazing. I would be able to get to the next level without having to drop 40$.

Those prices do seem pretty high... but I say definitely go for the trip, you wont have any residual tolerance from your last trip.

10 a g is standard where im from too.
you should grow your own. its easy.
as for doubling the dose, go for it.
but i dont like to trip in group situations like you probably are.

Yeah, I'm definitely doubling my dose from last time. I would love to grow if I had the time, I'm strongly considering getting a kit. And as for the group aspect, I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself around a lot of people who i don't enjoy. I plan on tripping with the same 2 people as the last 2 times i've done shrooms. Which would also be the same 2 people with me for the last 3 or 4 salvia trips.

kits r failsauce.
we can teach you everything you need to know, over at mush cult 
if you have a pressure cooker you can get more mush than you know what to do with.
if not, you can still get more than a kit using BRF cakes.

So I've decided to wait a few more days because I'm guaranteed dry shrooms by tuesday at the latest and i'd much rather wait for dry than buy more chocolates. Supposedly my buddy is getting some "Amazonian" shrooms, which he claims are a lot stronger than the last kinds I've gotten. I'm not going to pretend i know anything about mushrooms outside of my few experiences, so whats the deal with Amazonian?

so basically, he's just trying to make them seem more appealing by slapping a name on it? hahah it makes sense, I meannn, when you tell people that your marijuana has a rad name and that it's more potent, they tend to get a little bit more interested in what you have to say. but thats just how business works. what do you personally think about potency and "strains" when it comes to mushies?

i think what that link i told you to read says.
mushrooms grown from spores will differ in potency even in the same flush on the same subsrate.
you can isolate quite potent strains, but you need agar.
and people who just grow BRF cakes in their moms basements tend not to isolate strains.
