Was it enough

Hi Guys, Yesterday my friend gave me 3 dry mushrooms, which he said were "wavy caps". He told me that they were strong shrooms, so take it easy, as it was my first time shrooming, and i was a little nervous. I got home from work, had a shower and ate 1 cap. I waited for a while and nothing. After a hour i smoked A doobie with my GF and chilled. I had a slight spacey feeling but i am unsure weather this was a placebo from the shroom or the joint. After a hour i drank a glass of tea that i had brewed with the other two shrooms, and went to bed. Whilst in bed i found that i was still a bit spaced and felt very happy, although again i dont know weather this was a placebo effect, from my expectations of what would happen. Anyway, was just wondering if i had taken enough. My friend said the "wavy caps" were strong so i wanted to start slow, but was disappointing with the effects. I feel very spaced today (the day after) and slept in until very late.
Any ideas would be great. I still have some of the tea left over and will drink it this evening.

Need to take your entire dose at one time because tolerance builds fast and their is no way for anyone here to know if u took enough without knowing the weight of what u took

Psilocybin does not start to break down till well past 300f so how hot your tea was is negligible.

^^^ This. Also because oxygen is the main cause of psilo degradation, depending on how long it took them to dry could have been a factor. This is why most people who cultivate use a food dehydrator as highest setting. The longer it takes them to get dry, the more potency you will lose.

Sounds like you just had your first microdosing experience to me. Next time if you're going to eyeball aim for about 2g.

You need to take a predetermined dose all at once. Re-dosing after an hour will only prolong the effects rather than increase them because tolerance begins to build up almost immediately.
If you're taking any kind of SSRI, SNRI or number of anti psychotic medications, it will counteract the effects.
If the mushrooms were cracker dry and they were potent as your friend said, three grams should have been more than enough for a first timer. If they were wet (fresh), or not dried properly, you would have needed a significantly larger dose.
Nobody here can tell you the weight of your mushrooms judging by what size they were, but assuming you're not on any medication and that the shrooms were dry and at least of average potency, if you had three mushrooms of varying sizes which weighed three grams total and you ate the smallest one first then the others later, it makes sense that you wouldn't have felt very much because you already had a tolerance.
Better luck next time.

You need over 3 grams (edit: meant 2 grams) to have any kind of meaningful experience (one with pretty pronounced effects). You also need to take your dose all at once and wait 10 to 14 days in between doses. Finishing up your shrooms tonight will do nothing as now you have tolerance. If you want to trip, get an eighth and knock them down.

I wondered if it was a micro dose experience at the time, as I was so happy! Next time I will take at least 2g at once. Thanks for the info and help guys.

Microdosing definitely brings some euphoria. Works well as a rare coffee substitute imo.

If you are on the NW coastal area of the US....wavy caps are probably wild psilocybe cyanescens.They are all over the place out there right now growing in wood chip beds. These ARE extremely potent mushrooms and have heard of level 3 trips from 3/4 gram dried. Check the dosage indicator here and you will see that a level 5 trip can be reached with 3.3 G . You do NOT want a level 5 trip in this setting. Bottom line is that you should do some research before taking them and weigh the dose. Psilocybin does not break down till heated around the 300deg F range. Water cannot be heated above 212 degF without a pressure cooker so that did not create your problem. This site has all of the information that you need in the search area. M
