For my first trip should I eat the shrooms wet or dry?

Hmm...I suppose it really doesn't matter for potency. My tummy will be less full on dry though. Any recommendations, or is it just a matter of preferance? This is my first trip so I want it to be perfect. I'm planning on using the dosage calculator on this site. thanks for the help everyone!! -Shade

what I did was took 10 mushrooms and ate them. I tripped really good.
Bring along a CD player to listen to.

So the general consensus is wet then? Won't eating wet cause more nausea, especially for my first time? (I feel like a freaking virgin with these shrooms!!! )

If you've got a choice between wet and dry then definitely go wet. Wet = more potent, less fuss. Though admittedly I prefer the taste of dry. There's absolutely no reason why wet would cause more nausea. And there's no reason to assume you will get nausea, I don't.

I hear that. About one more month until I have my first shroom experience too. Patience is a bitch though.

I just wanted to bump this thread to see if there has been any new, SCIENTIFIC evidence of potency dry vs wet.
As I understand it, mushrooms are 90% water. Thus 5grams of wet will have less potancy than 5grams of dry, correct?
However there seems to be some controversay over the potancy of 1 dry mushroom vs 1 wet mushroom. Obviously the dry will weigh less, however some say the wet will have more of a kick.
So really, there are TWO distinct arguments going on here. Potency and Weight ratio to Potency.
Can anyone shed some current information on this topic? Please don't bother to respond if you have nothing to support your evidence. Opinions are not welcome.

Obviously 5g's wet will be less potent than 5g's dry.
I find that mushrooms will roughly dry out to be 1/10 their original wet weight.
If you take 50's wet vs 5g's dry, based on personal experience, you will trip harder on the wet ones. It may not be by much, but there is a difference.
I don't mind the taste of mushrooms so I'd definitely eat them wet rather than dry, but for some people the taste of mushrooms gets them nauseous so it's easier to chomp down 5 dry grams vs 50 wet grams.

I normally eat about 40 to 60 grams wet and have an awesome trip. I prefer wet mushrooms, I somehow feel that they are stronger.(maybe I just eat 2 much. The plus side of eating wet is that you don't have to wait for em 2 dry.

This whole business of 1:10 dry vs wet ratio is rough, so of course SOME people are going to have a stronger trip based on the varying psilocybin content of their mushrooms while others may have a weaker trip. With water content being another variable. At least that's how I see it.

some of the Psilocin is oxidised when drying...this is why fresh is always better
