Did the lemon tek work for me?

Just tried the lemon tek. I need your opinion on whether you think the lemon tek worked, or if I would have had the same intensity and duration without it.
Dosage: 25 grams of fresh GTs between 2 adults. Female 130 lbs had 10 grams. Male 175 lbs had 15 grams.
Method of consumption: I chopped the mushrooms and poured Real Lemon over them. Let them sit for 20 minutes. Then put them in a blender with lime margarita mix, and drank the mix. This was with a very high powered blender so everything was well blended, no bits or chunks.
Pre-conditions: Empty stomach. Shrooms consumed in morning without any prior food, only water.
Onsite: took about 20 minutes before I started to feel anything. My partner started feeling it at about 30 minutes.
The trip: I would describe it as a solid level 2. It was not as visual as I remember shrooms from when I last tripped about 10 years ago, but an amazing and fun experience.
Duration: From initial ingestion to normal functioning capacity, the experience lasted about 3 1/2 hours. Peak level 2 experience lasted about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
Summary: Level 2 trip that lasted about 2.5 hours on 15 grams of fresh GTs using lemon tek on empty stomach.
What do you think? Did the lemon tek actually do anything, or would I have had a similar experience with blended mushies on an empty stomach without the lemon?.

Sounds like it decreased onset but did nothing to peak intensity.

I love to eat mine fresh on empty stomach , but have never tried Lemon-Tek myself. Maybe they had less potency per gram always a possibility.

In my experience LemonTek only shortens onset, but doesn't really do anything noticeable in regards to intensity. I think that the reason people think it amplifies the experience is that the onset is so short, almost to the point of being violent. Without LemonTek you're typically eased into the experience over an hour or so. LemonTek can take it down to 10-15 minutes to really be into the midst of the trip. This rapid shift of consciousness can thereafter change the overall feel of the trip.

I would agree. Started feeling it in 20 minutes and was full on another 20 minutes later.

I lemon-tekked 1 gram of dry P. allenii. It took me forty minutes to feel anything, and then I blasted off into hyperspace....two and a half hours after which I promptly returned to baseline.
Two weeks later I orange/mango-tekked 20 grams of fresh P. cyanescens. Completely different experience. Slow, long, and drawn out. I was still tripping five or six hours later.

Some people say that the mango's terpene increases the intensity.

Yeah, the onset is so rapid that you're sober and then fifteen minutes later you're tripping balls and 60 minutes in you're peaking. A lot of people get panicked by the intense, fast come-on and then exaggerate the amount it potentiates the trip. I do think the peak is marginally stronger, but mostly the intensity curve changes to a steep incline, short plataeu then rapid decline. I personally love the rush of the come-on with a really high dose, just got to make sure you're lying down with the right music.

I used orange/mango juice + one whole fresh mango, blended with the fresh cyans in a vitamix. The trip was intense, but not visually. In this trip visuals took a backseat to emotions. It was a long and emotionally very intense experience. Even at hour six, tears were involuntarily flowing from mine eyes.

I don't think lemon-tek "potentiates" the trip like adding energy to a system. But it seems to be the case that lemon-tek, at least in certain situations, greatly increases the intensity of the experience at the expense of duration.
