dosage amounts

in reading many trip reports on different sites i regularly see doses in the 3.5 g range described as high. In 1982 while driving from NYC to groton,CT with a friend and a half lb of dry P.Cubs i (don't ask me why) reached as i drove along I95N for one of the glad sandwich bags full of the little ones which were weighed at 1oz ea.( the bags, not each mushroom) By the time we reached Groton up near Rhodes Island i had possibly consumed 4 of those glad sandwich bags full of our friends. I had at the time been the assistant manager of a regional Hi-Fi chain and returned to the store to find Doug there livid that Tim and me had been gone all day a Saturday the busiest day. I remember floating through the store feeling very much alien to the customers and came rapidly to the conclusion that i would not be selling any stereos that night and we promptly closed the store and went down to the Ocean where i spent the rest of the night. So as you may imagine i wondered how 3.5 g is considered high when i ate possibly 100g ? Nice meeting you all.

Welcome to the Shroomery
You ate 4 oz. of cubes and were able to drive? I'm going to guess that they were very weak mushrooms. I havn't heard of anybody eating that huge of an amount. How were you even able to consume that many. My stomach would explode

well i'm a biggish guy 6 ft. 180ish i was 19 then and it was a three hour drive i just started munching and figured i'd see how much i could eat. i wanted to really see what they could do. with soem water and pleanty of chewing they go right down . I did not know the source but im sure they were P.Cub probably B+ or mex typical round carmel/golden caps stems ave 3" long. As for the driving i guess i just have good concentration and we had great music.

lolz 100g is an ultra-super-mega-high dose. That must have been intense! Beyond a certain level eating more won't make you trip harder...You've prolly reached the boundary of shroom effects. I doubt the experience you had on those 100g would be much different if you had only eaten 50g or even less. Personally, i can't even start to imagine what such a trip would be like, never having done more than 4g at once. But that doesn't make 3,5g a 'low dose'. For me 3,5g is high dosing and i rarely eat that many unless i'm in a great mood, in the right place, with the right people.

that's crazy. 100g would probably have you puking your guts out. how can you do something like that? were they weak? - because there is no possible way you could have driven on 28.6x the normal dose of shrooms.

I really think this story is a lie. I wouldn't be surprised if the shrooms were fresh. You can't just eat a quarter pound of mushrooms and not experience some serious problems with your GI.

No lie , It was not 1 oz each shroom it was apx. one oz. full glad bags. now it was twenty years ago mind you.Here's all i recall. We had a half elbow it was i thought divied up into 1 0z. bags giving us 8 bags correct? i thoght i ate half of what we had . I will concede that it could have been a quarter but that would still put it up aroud 50 grams as 1 oz=28.53 grams correct? so even if i only ate the contents of two of those sandwich bags assuming they were spot on an oz. and we were aiming to sell them at the time 20 years ago so while i didn't weigh them we weren't cheats so i assume they were ,it is up there. As God is my witness i am teliing the truth. I as i said b4 didn't know the source/grower so i can't say what they were or if they were weak. As the one who took them i can say they didn't seem weak to me . I don't know if strength can really vary very significantly within any given strain. it's in the DNA to produce what it produces . I know they were some strain of Cubes likely a mex they were the archtypical P.Cub looking thing anyway i really am not trying to brag well yah i am alittle lol but just wanted to hear others feedback on this. Thanks and see you around.

As a youngster i once ate approximately 80 libertycaps that i had picked myself. Libcaps are very small but DAMN i was tripping balls. someone told me to eat 30-50 for a major tripp. But when your young and crazy you look for the ultimate. I dont think i would dare to eat more then 50 libcaps nowdays or i would fear for my sanity.
When your mind if free of fear its amazing how much shit it can take.

Being a native Texan i have heard some pretty tall tales before but you definatley have the tallest. I have some of the choicest picking fields around ie:gulf coast.I have been around awhile an seen people consume pretty large amounts of shrooms but the amount you took would have at least made you throw up a lot...but dont try to tell me you are strong enuff to drive on that amount because that is total bullshit. I found my first shrooms back in 1973 and have met only one person that could drive at all while tripping and that was on about 3.5 gms. You had some really weak ass shrooms or just dreamed that shit up so dont try to blow that kind of smoke up anybodys ass here at the Shroomery.

Well... it isn't that hard to drive while tripping. Not that it's safe either, I wouldn't want to do it, but I have done it three times before, twice on 3.5g and once on 5g. I drove flawlessly but I was sort of nervous while I was driving, cuz I couldn't tell if I was fucking up, so I had to keep asking everyone else.
But driving on 100g dry? That takes a leap of faith...

People probably drive while trippin all the time and its as stupid as driving drunk. Anyone that drives on shrooms is putting their life and others in jeapordy...its just crazy.

Brother i am not blowing smoke. i did modify the original statemnt whe i couldnt clearly recall if i finished off two glad bags or four but it was definately no less than two full glad sandwich bags full of dride P.Cubes likeley P.Mex . My main thrust is not to brag but just to compare and discuss . I don't remember hurling but that may yhve been because we had alot of Canibis Indica to ease that. Glad to make your aquaintance.
