Good Dose For Someone With No Psych Experience?

So I'm giving this friend of mine some mushrooms. He wants to take them with these two other guys that I sort of know. He has had one previous mushroom trip (about 2.5 grams) but the other two have zero experience with psychedelics. One of the two seems to be pretty cool, open minded etc....it's the other guy that concerns me, he's just always struck me as....well...kinda "square". He's hell bent on trying them though so 
Anyway, it's been ages since I last fucked around with these lower doses. These days I don't even bother with mushrooms unless it's 5+ gram. So what would you say a good dose for these guys would be? Obviously I don't want to blow their brains out with too strong of a dose, but I also don't want to dose them too low leaving them with that shitty underwhelmed, "waiting to trip" feeling.
I was thinking maybe 2.5 grams each? Or maybe 2.5 for the two with no experience and 3 grams for the guy with the one trip under his belt. So what do you think? Lower? Higher? Bump them up to 3 each or maybe down to 2?

Probably no less than 2g for the new guys, maybe 2.5g. I think ~2.5-3g would be good for the other one.

Depends on the quality of the shrooms. If you know their bad ass I would give them max 3g each.

2.5 seems safe enough - I can remember people sharing eighths when I was younger. I would say give an eighth to the friend with experience, but I also consider an eighth to be just short of what is needed (in my case) to get what I am looking for. Like you, I think 5+ is the way to go, especially since my first time (over ten years ago) was with a quarter oz. and it was amazing.
Nevertheless, go with your instinct... it sounds about right to me.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I mean I've seen people lose their shit on 2-3 gram doses, I had a few difficult experiences my self in my early tripping days with those dosages. I just really want to avoid any sort of legal fallout from someone freaking out.
I've went over the basics of tripping with them just to give them a rough idea of how it works. Body load, headspace, set, setting, all that good stuff but at the end of the day you just have to take them and find out for yourself.
I'll probably just throw them some benzos just in case.

As far as potency goes they seem to be pretty average.Quote:

Yup I've given them the whole set and setting spiel and I know where they are planning on taking them so I'm not to worried about that.

I gave a buddy at work 3.5 of some bad ass shrooms and he had never done them he called me freaking out while I was tripping balls. I assured him everything was going to be fine just roll with it. Im not going to lie I felt horrible and I didn't want him to have a bad trip. He called me back an hour later loving it. He was so amazed and this guy only tried bud a few times. Ive been breaking him and a few other friends off every grow for free and they love it.

Yeah I'll probably go 2.5 for the two with no experience and then leave them maybe .5 extra in case they feel underwhelmed.
I've honestly never liked taking mushrooms with other people. They tend to complicate things and just add an extra thing you have to focus on. They really want to do it together though I tried suggesting they take acid since it's better suited for a group setting IMO but they seem to think that natural somehow equals less intense.

I've had a very similar experience. I gave a friend (with no experience) about 2 grams of some very potent mushrooms and he called me in the middle of the night freaking the fuck out, took me a minute to realize he was tripping I ended up having to sit on the phone with him telling him improvisational stories for like two hours until he could go to sleep; Hence my reservations about dosing newbies, I know they don't have any other connections though and I do like to spread the love whenever I can, I'd just like to avoid a schedule 1 distribution wrap, that shit is no joke.

I feel you an that schedule 1 I only give them to certain people and I talk to him on a regular basis. On break I would show him videos of people having bad trips and people having good trips. We talked about set and setting and I made sure he has a play list of his music. I thinks thats what brought him back. He said he was under his covers for hours listening to the same song over an over.
