small doses are much more manageable. But I did have somewhat bad time on only a gram last night. (that was only because I was in a social situation.)

Bro chill out you womt have a bad trip...or even a trip at all...with a dose like that.
Look, get a scale. Make sure your mushrooms are totally dry, like crackers that crunch easily.
Weigh out 2 grams.
Eat them on an empty stomach.
Don't screw around with anything less, OP

Gotta disagree. Have you experimented much with micro dosing? It can be magical.
Taking so little that you can't even overtly feel it can be nice too. Therapeutic

yeah but taking microdoses are useless if your goal is to actually have a mushroom experience.
I just don't want OP to 1) waste his mushrooms 2) get the wrong idea of what a mushroom experience is 3) psych himself out thinking the mushroom is something that it is not by fiddling with such low doses
I have never seen a noob be into microdosing. but I have witnessed a noob overthink the experience and be timid to the point it backfires...which im trying to prevent now

Agreed. OP, if you're wanting to try mushrooms, eat mushrooms (plural, more than one). If you want to really grasp the magic, eat a couple grams at least. A single mushroom isn't gonna do shit, at least anything worth while or remembering.
Microdosing is cool to experiment when you've already been deep and understand a little bit about the psychedelic world. I just picture people micro dosing and then later on being like "yeah man, I ate mushrooms and it was so awesome!" when really they just ate crumbs and had a mediocre experience. It's not about tripping harder than anyone else, it's just about ACTUALLY tripping and not teasing yourself.

I've shroomed 4 times and had one extremely bad trip. I have a lot left in my batch and want to step my toe in the water again and wonder if microdosing possibly produces bad trips.

I agree with you, OP, a small dose in this case is a good idea. For all you know your batch of mushrooms has individual fruits within it that when eaten make for bad trips. If that is the situation, you don't want to have too much of them. Take a small dose and see what happens. If you are OK then next time take a little more until your confidence is reestablished.

A small dose is a good idea, but make sure to measure how much you're actually taking. 1.75-2.25g is a good starting spot.

More like. There's very little risk at low dosages but you never know.

I've really been digging small doses lately. Yesterday I did 1/3 of gram and had a great time hanging out with my wife in my backyard pool listening to music, drinking, smoking.. it was perfect.
But I had one really unpleasant small dose experience, one of my first low doses after I grew my big batch 2.5 years ago. I was keeping it secret from my wife at the time. We were on a little vacation to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We were in a town where everything was in walking distance from the hotel and we went to a restaurant for dinner. I took my dose right before we left. It started to hit me in the restaurant and it was too weird. Things were a little off for me. I had trouble holding up my side of the conversations, and when the menus came I couldn't make up my mind. My wife got irritable with me (you know how women can be), and I was regretting dosing big time. It kinda ruined our anniversary dinner.
Now she's on board with the shrooms but I still have to introduce her to microdosing. I was being deceptive with her previously and that's what screwed things up. No longer a problem...

Y'all never want to take any amount of mushrooms without revealing it to people you know. Just a bad idea IME.

Where did you get this from? Please don't spread this nonsense.
It is not the particular mushroom that causes a "bad trip". It is all set and setting.

My mushrooms seemed to get mad at me when I forgot about some colonized jars for a long time.

I have never taken a dose that small. I think it is unlikely as you won't even really be tripping. The worst you could get is some tension.
Although I have not had a bad experience on a low dose, I did have an uncomfortable experience one time when I thought I was nearly done tripping, and took an adderall to help me study. The combo of the adderall and the residual effects of the shrooms sent me to a depressing place mentally. It was very weird as the adderall sort of sent me back to a mental trip- even though I thought the shrooms were nearly worn off.
