Finding out doses/how much psilocybin

Hello, I'm about to go out and try to hunt for shrooms for my first time. I think I'm mainly looking for some Liberty Caps (Psilocybe Semilanceata). My question is how to find out how much psilocybin is in a mushroom, and how much you would have to eat, etc. And also, how does this relate to street bought shrooms? I know for street bought shrooms you go buy weight, but if you went by weight with different species, wouldn't the amount of psilocybin vary, either causing you to trip noticably more or less? I hope I explained myself right! Thanks in advance for all your help

Also, after finding a patch, do the shrooms grow back (after rains)? If so could I water the patch and expect to see more? Thanks

It's difficult, if not impossible, to really figure out exactly how much Psilocybin is held inside of wild mushies. That's why people usually get a much heavier/lighter trip then expected after injesting mushrooms they've picked.

ok cool. I hadn't really planned on watering them, I was just wondering if they did grow back in the same spot. Sweeeeet  I can't wait to do some more shroom hunting.

NHansen: i don't know where you live; but, the chances are that you will not find semies this time of the year. as far as the watering, i'd go with what amanitaman said. watering will not likely not help due to the multitude of factors wich contribute to the fruiting of these mushrooms, wich include temperature and humidity aswell. if nature isn't doing the watering you will probably not see results.
that dosage calculator is somewhat cool, but is not fool-proof. there will be variances of potency from collection to collection wich in this species can be vast.
as far as dosage/intensity, it does not equate to dosage/intensity with P. cubensis [most commonly sold psilocybian mushrooms] as the "signature" of the experiences are not identical.
due to the factors addressed above, it is best to start conservatively [0.25g dry], work your way up and find the level that suits you best.
--------------------
Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

I thought Liberty Caps grow between August and December? I live in upstate New York, by the way. Anyway thanks for the info, I'm learning so much from everyone here. Peace.

I was the first p[erson to publish dosages for 7 spoecies of psilocybian mushrooms, Followed by Haard and HAARD AND THEN LATER OTHERS.
bOTH OF MY BOOKS, mAGIC mUSHROOMS OF THE pACIFIC nORTHWEST, AND MY BOOK REPUBLISHED AT HTTP://WWW.EROWID.ORG, sAFE-pIK, mUSHROOM IDE GUIDE PROVIDES DOSAGES.
hOWEVERR, EACH SHROOM HAS A DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF CHEMICALS IN IN COMPARED TO ANBOTHER SHROOM OF THE SAME SPECIES AND bIGWOOD AND bEUG BOTH FOUND A FACTOR RATION OF FROM FOUR TO TEN WITH CULTIVATED CUBIES.
MJ
20 TO FORTY SMALL LIBERTY CAPS ARE CONSIDERED A CLINICAL DOSAGE AND ONE DRIED TO ONE AND A HALF DRIED GRAMS.
OF LIBS. MJ.
EAT THEM SLOW.
HAPPY HUNTING.
