Potency

Well I have done my own "homegrowns" now 4 times and I am not to impressed
Is this because I dont have great growing conditions? my setup IS VERY CHEAP.....but it seems to work fine and the mushrooms all seem healthy.
I have a theroy that it might have to do with my drying , I got lazy and didnt put some shrooms in with the silica and instead after they had been fanned for three days I let them sit in the drying box for about another three days and then ate them, and to tell the truth from the ammounts I ate other times I was not disapointed but this time around I ate WAY more than my 3rd trip and didnt trip as well.(although I had the smallest ammout of someone elses shrooms.......gee I sure would hate to know that it was his shrooms that gave all that magic my 3rd time)
Anyway what do you think and what can be done to maximize potency? I like tripping pretty damn hard!!
Which is why for my next trip I am taking syria rue with my shrooms, but I want to have shrooms that I can eat 4 grams and be pretty damn ripped WITHOUT rue.
for my last trip I ate alot of mushrooms but they were pretty small and I assume that might have had something to do with it but drying is more likely
ideas (potency, drying???)

hope you know what youre doing with the syrian rue. watch what you eat before and after. be a shame to die of a cheese sandwich overdose!

I doubt if your problem is the drying. Did you notice bluing during/after the shrooms had been dried? If the shroomes blued a little, this indicates that they do contain psiloc(yb)in. If they blued very heavily, this might mean that all the active alkalo?ds have reacted with the air, and potency is below average.

There are reports of people keeping their shrooms in the drying chamber for months and they end up being ok. Air I do not think is the thief in this case. Perhaps heat. Have you ever microwaved a mushroom? I have to personally see how heat damages the content. A microwaved mushroom turns all purple, and leaves a paper towel sopping wet with blue juice. Take that mush and dry it, it will result in a blackish purple mushroom. I have never seen these results from O2 alone.
