Isn't that the whole point of doing studies such as these... to draw a conclusion based on the data you collect, so you can prove or disprove a hypothesis ie. "caps are more or less potent than stems"?

yup. well the study that was done wasnt bad. In recently dried cultivated samples of Ps. cubensis, the stems showed a little more potency on average than the stems. The little more could be negligible, more testing needs to be done. but they used their own cultivated ps. cubensis.
The Alkaloidal concentrations list that ive been working on is not very good because it uses older and newer dried samples in differently tested ways across the world over a period of (well a long time i dont want to look it up right now.).
Look at Psilocybe baeocystis
According to many sources this mushroom has a high number of baeocystin as well as the other alkaloids that oxidize. After you dry, many of these alkaloids are oxidized at different rates because of the different stabilities of the different tryptamine alkaloids.
So we have a very bad example dreid alkaloidal content.
We need to be testing specimens which are fresh, and no more than an hour ( or a few hours) old. Which makes this study suck becuase i dont know anyone around here who feels like testing for me, ive offered money, partnership, all my specimens.. think of the 16 different species we could have tested this fall. but because no one want to work with a noob, no one has been working with me but Alan, and he focuses on psilocybin species of the mexican nature, so thats what i ask him about.
