Magic truffles?

I am going to have the privilege of trying magic truffles next month, it will be a first for me as I have never tried them (have had shrooms). Does it differ in experience from an actual mushroom trips I know the chemicals remain about the same (psilocin/psilocybin) but does the trip change in any way due to it being a truffle? Also what are people's general experience on them ?

They are the same as mushrooms, the sclerotia is essentially just a very tight knot of mycelium. Its function is to protect it through forest fires and what not.
You can actually fruit these as mushrooms too, the fruits are very potent.
Typically the mushrooms for sale on drug markets are Cubensis varieties, which you nornally eat 2-3 grams of for a dose.
Fresh mushrooms are 90% water, so 20-30 grams fresh mushrooms will dry down to 2-3 grams
Fresh truffles are twice as potent as fresh cubes typically, so a typical dose is around a gram or so.
But truffles are denser, they're around 70% water, so 20÷30 grams of truffles will dry down to 6-9 grams.
So - fresh truffles you would eat about half as much as you normally would of mushrooms for a typical dose, dry truffles you need to eat quite a bit more.

You will definetly want to powder them because they're like rocks- make tea or gel caps

I was wondering about that, how would I go about powdering them, pestle and mortar? Yeah I think your right about 7 grams I was recommended for a dose of 7.5gram.

What is an easy way to powder them? I still have 12g lying around from awhile back when I did 8g. Also, DON'T just do 7g, it does almost nothing, it's almost at threshold, the only visuals I got from 8g was the lights got a bit brighter and the grass was kinda dancing to music, but nothing more
I want to do all 12g for my next trip

Since i used to buy all my shrooms from dutch smartshops ive used fresh magic truffles quite often. IMO the best way to taken them is yogurt but eating them as is works too. They really dont taste that bad.

Maybe mines will be fresh but then 15 gram of fresh truffles would equate to what in dried shrooms does anybody know?

All truffles sold in the netherlands are fresh. Selling dried truffels is illegal as far as i know.
I think 1,5 - 2,5g depending on potency but maybe more if theyre very strong

Ooooo so I would need to eat a full 15 grams of truffles just to get 2.5g worth of mushrooms dose ? Not good IMO?

I don't remember the name, bought them domestic on DNM, but I was told they were very potent, and my friend also confirmed that claim.

You need to eat 15g DRIED to get same trip as 2,5g dried shrooms, fresh you will have to eat around 25g

Pretty expensive then for a 2.5g trip, dunno if it's really worth it lol maybe I'll just stick to shrooms

If you have access to shrooms theres no reason why you should be using magic truffles. Even in the netherlands distribution of magic truffles is just a consequence of the magic mushroom ban in 2008.

True I was just curious, wanted to see if they held a different kinda magic.

Why? Truffles are great. They are easy to grow, taste good and are quite potent. Fresh truffles can store up to 3 months in a fridge under proper conditions.
Gram per gram fresh truffles are twice as potent as ffresh cube fruits.
Its true that because truffles have a lower percentage of water content that mushroom fruits that youneed to eat a bigger weight in dried truffles, but they are so dense that it is not a lot of ffungus eat.
15 grams of dried truffles is only a pile aroundt as big as a half dollar coin.

@mushpunx I have read over it all, I don't have a clue how I misread it but it all makes sense now lolz, i am in two minds whether or not to actually pursue truffles now but they still sound like they have potential just seems like a lot of effort when fruits are probably more of a sensible approach.
