I think my first trip was either 3-3.5g
and next was 4g
both were pleasant, but intense, I had done LSD before I took them as chocolates - better trip
I think they saying goes that 3.5g is the normal tripdose "just eat the 1/8th" , but with that you gotta make sure of your setting
if you take under 3.5 you may not trip in many cases
If I am cautious with beginners I would offer them 2-2.5g, but for a real normal trip I would offer 3.5g

I would say 3 to 3.5. Personally I find the easiest way to take them is simply eat the dry and whole (they are like funny tasting wafers) with something yummy like chocolate fudge etc.

Goodness, forgot to add. Ginger tablets are your friend, I find if you take them 20 mins before the shrooms I NEVER get any nausea at all but if I don't take ginger I feel sick and bloated while coming up.

1 gram if youre worried half 8th if youre ready. i thinks that's a better recommendation for beginners than just telling them to start with half an eighth some people don't understand what it is going to be like on them mentally.

3 to 3.5 grams of mushrooms for a first timer is not a good idea. That is not a light dose. OP you're going to do what you want but I'd recommend staying in the 1 to 1.5 gram range. Be safe.

I took over 20g of truffles on my first trip, I was off my head but I had a great time. I do have the most laid back easy going personality ever though!

I got to say, as a somewhat new user myself this thread is entirely useless to O.P
5 grams? Lemon Tek? Are you all fucking serious? This guy just said he is sensitive to many drugs, medications, weed, Etc. If he's (she's) sensitive to those you can damn right assume psychedelics will have a significant impact on him/her.
I know for many of you who have been taking shrooms or other psychedelics for years or even months 3.5 grams is a totally normal dose. But this is not true for a inexperienced tripper.
I tried 1 gram at first to see how I would respond, physically, mentally, nausea Etc.
After that went smoothly I waited 2 weeks and consumed about 2 grams dry equivalent. I ate 17 grams fresh Cubensis.
I will add that fresh shrooms have way less potential for an upset stomach than dried shrooms.
I had a great trip and already have been, and will continue to, recommend no more than 2.5 grams dry as a starter dose. Why risk over doing itu your first time? You have your whole life to work your way up. Start small and be safe.
My trip report is below if you're interested.

Some don't like rollercoasters
Some like the big rollercoaster
Some like the biggest rollercoaster
I have never seen anyone take 1-1.5g before personally I usually hear 2-2.5g for beginners, but make your own research
There is a reason 3.5g is the normal dose for most people, 1/8th, it's because you cannot trip on less usually Take less and you get no visuals and no trip usually, maybe slight color enhancement that's all
But a sensitive mind can trip on anything, even water The 3.5g is for average users, not sensitive minds that think they trip on water or weed
It is always a good idea to start low, but 1g that's just too low IMO I would start with 2g at least..

You've probably already tripped but this is still relevant.
Enjoying a trip is all about the setting/environment.
If you feel bad vibes while on shrooms you won't have a good time.
Be with people you trust, be in a place with privacy, have food/music on hand, BE COMFORTABLE!

The only time I've taken less than 3.5 grams I really regretted it. I felt let down that I didn't capture the entire experience. I still had a good time but I felt like I kept waiting and waiting for it to "kick in" which it never did.
Obviously this is very subjective on many different variables, however I certainly happy I started with a solid 3.5 grams even for my first trip. As long as the set and setting are correct you should be fine. My first trip with 3.5 couldn't have been more perfect.

3.5.

micro dosing may be a good way to start if you think youre sensitive OP.
low doses you really have to focus on the effects and I don't see how anyone could have a "bad" trip from low doses like that.
1 g or less is highly recommended if you are nervous or just don't know how they will affect you.
I've had 8th trips that differ even though they are the same dose.
I have micro dosed a few times and really enjoyed the VERY subtle affects I had, I also really enjoyed the strong trips.... I just really enjoy shrooms....Quote:

first shrrooms I ever ate tasted a little like peanuts. chewing felt sort of like I was chewing on peanut shells.
those were BOMB ass shrooms too. I wish I still had that connect

Really? To me they even have the texture of rice cakes. Another time tho I got these kick ass boomers that tasted like dirty cinnamon toast crunch.

I get the rice cakes texture with most of my boomers I eat. often they taste like cow dung as well.
I was lucky my first time with these shrooms.
the caps and stems were PERFECT. gold ass caps and felt like they popped in my mouth when I took my first bite.
it was that one time that they tasted somewhat good and the texture wasn't bad.
if I find shrooms like that ever again I wont ever let that connect go.
I was laughing hysterically and bouncing my body off my sisters bed....
good times, good times....

I prefer fresh because from experience they give more visuals. + they've oxidized less.
I don't taste them though because I just swallow them with some sweet cordial. If you cut up the shrooms into bite size portions it's easy to swallow them whole without having to taste them.
I used to dry them out, powder them then mix into into chocolate pudding but it became too much at doses of 3g+

1.5-2.5 depending if your big or small IMO, low is the way to go if you don't know how your going to react. go big or go home is for the people locked up in the ER after getting chased naked by cops down the street while getting tazed and your stomach forcefully pumped. lmao

That only happens to people who aren't mentally prepared for the drug and don't know what to expect.
I took 4g my first time and had a wonderful time, I did however study their effect and read several trip reports before doing so.
In saying so though, most people really don't prepare themselves at all which is why we have cases of naked dumb asses running amuck on shrooms.
I don't see why someone would get their stomach pumped unless they were dumb enough to eat unidentified mushrooms.
