Pretty funny. Luckily I was young and wild. Thankfully, I don't think you can overdose.

I bet that kind of dose would trigger any hereditary mental illness hiding under the surface, super scary.

The ones where you think it’s weak at first are the strongest, at least for me.
I think it’s because at a certain dose I’m so gone so fast I don’t really realize it until the peak hits.

Back when I first started growing, I would take 5+ gram doses. I go through hell, literally, on the come up. So I would eat them then go to sleep and wake up when I began to peak. It worked everytime. It has been quite some time since I ate a strong dose though. I have been pushing it off because of my anxiety issues but I feel like I need a complete reset.

A.k.a said: That’s the problem with running a ton of cultures, no time to test them all.
I usually take 3-4g for a real trip and 1g is definitely a good test dose. It’s enough to get a really good idea of what they’re like without taking over the whole night. Most of the time. Like mushboy said sometimes you get those face melters.
My first PE experience was a 1g “tester” that rivaled a lot of 3g doses I’ve had.
Coffee grinder to caps is the only way I take shrooms these days.
I'm the same way - I only take them by grinding cracker dry mushies into a powder and capsulizing with a capsule machine. Not only is it far easier on the stomach, it evens out the strength of the harvest, even when using different varieties or species. I don't understand why anyone would do it any differently at this point, but to each their own, I guess.
It's funny though - I still have friends report back things like "I took four capsules the other night and felt nothing, but last night I only took two and I was on another planet!", or "wow, that last one must have been all caps and no stems!" IMO, this really goes to show that what's going on in your body also has a huge effect on strength. Just another factor to make testing more difficult...
I only ever eat fresh fruits for testing - around 10 g, or really whatever it happens to be. For one thing you can't completely regulate stage of fruiting and they aren't changing absolute potency if allowed to develop. But at least with PE it serves the purpose - either you ARE tripping or you're just kind of whishing you were. No points for which candidate makes the cut for hanging onto.
This obviously only applies to clones already, FFS.

Ha! Poor guy is trying really hard.
Xanax will stop your trip. Possibly many central nervous system depressants do this.
PrepH - I like to frequently start from spore ~Multispore Enthusiast~ After i take a transfer off a T1 it goes in an LC. Same with T2, T3, etc...till i have a respectable looking culture, fruit it and start all over.

Posting photos of hands at all, even blurry, can be used to identify you. It's been done (forensic image processing has come a long way, with the mythical "enhance" function coming closer to reality). But I'm sure it's only an issue if you are a person of interest.

Moly is great for come up anxiety.
If I am taking moly, I will just be taking moly. There will be no desire to eat mushrooms at that point. But thanks for the suggestion.

Mdma and lsd is great, I get crazy anxiety from lsd, moly stops it in its tracks and adds an odd sexual component to the trip. Did this with a lady friend for her first lsd trip, it was memorable.

It is literally not a consciously accessible experience. However, my memory has been terribly impacted by early "lifestyle," myriad TBIs, PTSD, and chemo.  But, nearly constant headaches aside, I'm a pretty happy camper today. And I had a lovely, light, level 3ish, 3.0g malabar trip Sunday.
Also, it's amazing how much healing one gets from 35 of sobriety in AA. ...not the sterilizer.

First time taking acid I was a senior in HS, took 3 points of M and 2 gel tabs with the hottest babe in my school and ran from cops that may not even have existed in the woods for a few hours till it got dark and started raining. Something I still bum over is that she explicitly told me to fuck her just before we ran into our police issue. Never ended up in that booty.. Insane feeling though, positively

I'm liking these 20L pasty tubs to fruit different strains alongside the 60 and 40L tubs, less grain and spawn per tub.

I'm going back to foil on grain jars. They keep rusting out cause i leave them in pc 12+ hrs after running most of the time. Sanded and recaulked most of them already.

When talking about cubes, is it the same performance when doing 1:1 ratio vs 1:2? I've read 1:2 would be better in terms of moisture retention, but is it really notorious? Grain cost me way way less than coir, so I'd do 1:1 always unless you suggest the other way

Overnight soak in brew bag and filter patch bags really changing the grain game for me. Packed a single Presto with six 4.5lb bags last night, feels so good to be more than twice as efficient. No popped bags yet over the 3 runs I've done so far which feels goooood, big thanks to Nate and brownbear for their teks on bag prep.
I've been working almost exclusively with LI thus far but I'm gonna switch to G2G and maybe some LC. I'm quite confident in the metal lid+whole SFD setup both for grain and LC so I'm looking forward to getting past this recent mold issue with the plastic lids.
Not sure if I can comfortably G2G bag to bag given that my FFU is only 22" but maybe I'll raise it up on some books or something to get that extra height. Don't mind doing jar to bag but it'd be a little less efficient, not the end of the world.
Already got two bags of AA+ PMG close to 100% colonization and some RW jars on the way as well, looking forward to finally having some fruits again soon.
Also, when you have a metal lid rubber side up with a SFD on top of it and the band, when you remove the band, is it as simple as carefully picking up the lid+SFD to inoculate? Feels weird having my fingers that close to the opening of the jar but I guess I'll just take it slow and keep my fingers more towards the back of the jar and further downstream of the flow, I haven't actually inoculated any of the metal lid jars yet so I'm just tryna make sure I thought of the specifics.
