Micro Dosing

I picked some Azurescens a few days ago. Unfortunatly I tried drying them with residual heat in the oven. Probably 200 degrees worth. They turned black. Not crispy fried black. Just psilocin had completely changed to psilocybin.
I ate one little teeny tiny mushroom yesterday. DIdn't feel anything substantial. Felt rather talkative and I had an elevated mood all day long. Pretty interesting because I've been reading a lot about 'micro dosing'.

Probably placebo. Try it again a few times with a sub-threshold dose (half a gram at least).

Interesting. Thank you for the correction. How degraded would the active chemicals be? Will the mushrooms still have any effect being totally oxidized? I keep reading different schools of thought on this.
I'm VERY nervous about dose too large due to a bad trip I had about 12 years ago. Ate an entire 1/8th of Amazonian Cubenzes. I want to be respectful and knowledgeable before approaching the mushroom spirits.
Thanks again for the information.

How degraded? No idea. The black is likely oxidation, but what you want to find out is "what is an active dose" then you can figure out what a micro dose would be, something below the threshold of detection. Always realizing that with small doses placebo can fool you - it has fooled me sometimes.
I would stick with gentler deyhydration, but my experience sometimes with woodlovers that weren't, well, too pristine, is that they start degrading and turn blackish on drying. You're just helping the process along is all.
Pics might be helpful.

You are a lot of help. So, how would I figure out what an active dose is? Just by taking them? I plan on going hunting this Sunday and I'll dehydrate them properly. It would be nice to utilize these still if possible.
Here is a picture as you requested.

Well, keep those. They can't be more potent than better dried samples. They look a little toasted. Then with fresh do a sample dose and work from there - always a good idea with a new find, IME.
