Hey dudes and dudettes
I have had 2 really nice visual trips on 5g dried shrooms in LemTek. This week my grow should be ready. I go away on holiday beginning of next week and I want to get a trip in before I go away. So in case I don't have time to dry them out before I go, I want to do a fresh shroom trip this weekend.
I remember reading on here somewhere the ratio of potency between dry and fresh shrooms. Now correct me if I'm wrong but aren't fresh shrooms 3/4 the potency of dry shrooms? So the equivilent of 5g dry would be about 8g fresh? My maths is terrible.

~50g fresh = 5g dry. its roughly 10% dry mass
-------------------- The mushroom speaks: '"I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life... How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds"

5g dry = roughly 50g fresh. And fresh is arguably more potent then dry due to the fact the drying process can result in the loss of some potency.

Cheers for that guys. Ok in that case then, I might try 40g-45g fresh. I don't want to overdo it and not enjoy the trip.

Dude honestly, if they're even average potency then 40g fresh is probably too much. When Cubensis are fresh they can have a little bit of baeocystin content as well as a decent psilocin content. They are significantly more potent fresh than dried for those reasons. Any baeocystin present will degrade upon drying and the psilocin content is significantly reduced from the drying process as well since it's not as stable as psilocybin. I bet you'd have an enjoyable experience on even 25g fresh. No need to dose that high man unless they're weak.

Ah right. Ok. Cheers for this bit of info bud. They are Mexican shrooms. I have had them before and like I said, I had nice visual trips on 5g dried so taking on board what you've just said, I won't do as high dose as 40g then. I'll try 25g to start with and go from there. I'll have plenty to experiment with so even if 25g ends up not being what I want out of it, I'll just up it the next time by 5g-10g.

Or he enjoys stronger trips. Or has a naturally high tolerance.

Good plan. Always wise to play it safe.

I think I do seem to have a fairly high tollerance. I think that's to do with all the class A's I've taken in the past. But I got enough to experiment with a lower dose first. I've never done them fresh so I have no idea. I know what I can handle with dry so as soon as I find my limit with fresh, I'll be happy. Although I'm not looking forward to chewing them fresh. At least dried, I can grind them up and mix them with something sweet. Lol

When I ate them fresh I'd chew them up real good while not breathing and then drink down what I chewed with cola. The fresh trips always seemed to have a different feel to them and the visuals seemed more "real" which might be due to the baeocystin in the fresh cubensis.

Cheers bud. I'll do my best. I think I'm gunna wash them down with orange juice. Hoping that that will add to the intensity of the trip.
