when you harvested your first homegrown shrooms , was the quality higher than previous experience?

I am now working towards fruiting my own mushrooms. Friends that have grown in the past always said they were blown away by the potency of the mushrooms compared to buying random bags of shrooms from people in the past . what are your experiences with this matter ?
Im really hoping that the mushrooms come out more potent than what im used to. I never really got much from mushrooms and I suspect quality is probably an issue ( a trip from a dry 10-14 gram bag for me usually consists of a lot of laughter , mild distortion of objects and very very faint and mild patterns , little CEV ) and I hear of many people going to some pretty unworldly places off of 5 grams dry ( I really want to have these sort of experiences , especially since I cant find any cids lately haha ) the best shroom experience I ever had was a half ounce in tea with 100~mg of 4 aco dmt spaced out in two doses. the clouds were turning into mandala's and the snowfall and campfire were giving some amazing visuals, trees fractalizing in the background ect.
I eat a lot of meat and dairy so my diet is high in amino acids, and ive taken a sedative at nighttime since I was a little kid mind you ive tried changing my diet and have been off sedatives in the past with little effect on my trips. I smoke and eat a lot of cannabis and cannabis extracts but im not sure that would have much effect however any insight on this matter would be GREATLY appreciated
peace and love to you all

Fresh home grown is always the best IMO too. 5 grams is really a full on experience... just the idea of eating half an ounce of them is insane, I wouldn't do that to myself.

Glad to hear !!!
Might you guys have any idea how people manage to grow such weak shrooms ? ( or rather me being a punk with no good connections *chuckle* I joke I joke )

They're not grown weak, just stored improperly. Light and air degrade the actives.
That's my guess anyway.

I sort of speculated this myself. Good insight

My first homegrown I have a level 5 experience from 1.7g (fuck, I should have gotten some spore prints)
Before that when id buy them I could have even up to 5.5g and would get level 3-4 trips

Bought one are usually stored just rolled in a plastic baggie in a mason jar which is opened multiple times. The jar is usually in a cupboard. That's my experience 50+times buying em.
Degradation by improper storage. Psylocin degrades quickly if improperly dried and kept. 3.5 grams of homegrown properly dried sounds equivalent to your experience on 14g's.

No. It was the luck of the draw of a MS syringe of Koh samui. It was consitnantly this potent for many flushes
EDIT: yes they were cubes. I cant tell you how many trips I had just using 1-1.4g after that first level 5 trip and still having level 3-4 trips.

Straight off the dryer and into the tea pot, 5 grams will fully walk all over my ass and paint pictures in my eyes.

The trait probably wouldn't have been passed down through the spores anyway, just a the luck of the draw with the grow. The stars were just correctly aligned.

that sounds just ... AMAZING . thankyou for your insight everyone ! <3
( the excitement inspired me to go look at my incubator .. looks like my jars of WBS will be ready to crumble in the next few days !! also the recycled food jars I filled with WBS and inoculated a few days ago with a liquid culture are coming along GREAT ! may have to fruit them in vitro if im unable to get the cakes of grain out of the jars as they are not wide mouth jars but these were sort of just "extras" ive been making with recycled materials around my house in my free time. I do plan on following some TEKs with the tapered wide mouth jars I have purchased but I don't think there can be any hurt in experimenting especially with recycled materials ! )

They were too, because with that dose I and my friend (we each had 1.7g and went to our own homes) expected a LOW DOSE trip.
Oh. Were we oh so ever wrong. Thats the night I went to the place where time did not exist

Scoop those cakes out with a spoon, grate them up with a cheese grater and use them as spawn
You can make small take away tub sized cakes with that sort of spawn that will grow great in a SGFC. 4 times as many shrooms as well

Best thing to do when you grow them is harvest when you're ready to trip, dice them up right there and throw them in some lemon tea before they blue even the tiniest bit. I absolutely love tripping on fresh mushrooms, there's a certain special something for me about those trips, they are certainly incredibly potent that way. I took 20g fresh thinking it would be a mild maneageable experience and didn't have the proper setting for the trip I got, I handled it fine but it was unpleasant. The visuals were incredible though.

no my homegrowns were not as strong as my dealer mushrooms

Here's how it works:
Person X decides to grow.
2) Buys supplies
1) Does research (whoops that was supposed to be #1)
Asks questions
Does research
Inoculates grow kit
Does research
Waits
Waits
Waits
Does more research
Obsessed with shroomery, comes to understand that there are many factors involved in potency and experience
Waits
Waits
Waits
Finally (months later) person X has mushrooms, and all of the research about growing, set, setting, method of ingestion, and respecting our natural allies comes to a perfect conclusion........your mushrooms are the greatest ever when you try them!
