Tis my first trip report, I hope it's a good read! Preface I've been growing cubes for a year now and my coworker, b, expressed his enthusiasm towards the hobby so I introduced him to growing a few months ago. Set and Setting B told me his birthday was in a couple of days and I already knew how to celebrate!! The evening after his birthday, Saturday, he was having a light party in his back yard with a with a small fireplace encircled by chairs and a bench on a concrete pad surrounded by bamboo. Basically a good vibe factory. Meanwhile, at my casa, 6:30pm, I picked a couple of lemons and )))squeeze((( into a mason jar. I added 4.5g of dried aborts not knowing how many people were going to partake. At 830, I was on my way, a short drive one neighborhood over, jar and joint in hand. I pulled in and only a couple of people have arrived, s and t, who I knew from previous visits. Real stand up people! They we're curious about the jar, as was I so I grabbed it out of my vehicle and brought it inside for all to behold. It looked impressive, transforming from its original off white to a blue tinted potion. They informed me they were eager to participate and I immediately uttered "We need more.. Il be back!!". B had 2.8g left from previous batches which he pulled out and crunched up into the jar!! So out the door I was to add the remaining 5g I had. (Car door shut) VVVVRRRRROOOOOMMMMM--Skkkkkrrrrrtttt!!! Drop drop splash, shake shake shake, another Sskkkkkrrrtt and 9:15 I'm back, unable to procure a Hackey sack we thought would be fun to play, I instead brought a laser light show. By this time, there are quite a few people here! I put the lemon juice jar in a cabinet to stew and headed outside to the back yard! I found a seat amongst the New friendly faces around the fire and we drank a few beers and smoked a couple of hi grade blunts listening to Mr p playing The acoustic sounds of tenacious d and the like. Of course wonderwall inspired a kumbaya moment in all of us. A trip inside and a few games of beer pong later, it was about 1030 and we all found ourselves back outside in the circle talking to everybody about everything, with the aide of the famous socially lubricating target of beer pong. I decided it was nearing "that time" so I put on a beautiful light display by sprinkling copper(ii) chloride onto The flames, instantly turning them vibrant hues of blue, green, and turqouse.. Amazing. The Trip At 1045, my gaze turned from the mesmerizing fire, across the circle to b, who quickly cut his eyes at me, s, sitting beside him, looked up next in rhythm at us, I cut My eyes to the kitchen window, and off I went, b,s,and t in tow. We entered the house, and I reached for the elixir-on the counter? Oh well, I thought.. Somebody must've wanted to take a gander. We stood in a square, seemingly facing the four winds and started sipping and slurping a few fruits and passing around the jar. T took a couple of gulps, seemingly unaware of the potential peril and terror this brew could summon. I immediately stopped him, s and b whole heartedly agreeing with me. We passed it around one more time, taking about 1 mouthful total, plus a few fruits and headed back to the sanctuary of blue fire. Everybody was talkative, and all of the 10 seats were filled around the guitar and flames! I start zoning out a bit, pondering what was to come in the next few hours, of course a bit nervous, but the alcohol coursing through my brain dulled it quite nicely! Before I knew it it was 11:15, and literally the entire circle started to get hysterical! I don't mean to say everyone was funny to me, quite the opposite; nearly everyone was laughing, over the top belly bellows!! How curious, I thought and I got ahead of myself a bit not realizing I was already beginning to intermingle with the brew, I awkwardly hopped up and skipped to b to tell b I think we should go ahead and drink some more. He stared confused for a moment before replying a reasonable answer to bring me back to my senses. My first wave was coming down. I think back to the kitchen and the jar being on the counter instead of where I left it. I pose the question to myself, what if everybody drank some and I got this whole party lifted!! Oh man, it was an exhillerating thought! At about 1130 the crowd was thinning out and only me, t and s were by the fire with a quite strange, but pretty, young lady, very insulting and obnoxious at times though. Be that as it may, she was funny and bold! She got out a few rhymes here and there and overall we managed to keep the vibe alive. We decide, for the final(almost) time, at 11:45 to head inside and gulp down more juice and fruit. We All squared up, opened wide and drank nearly the rest of the juice.. Maybe 20ml of liquid remained among the now fully swollen mushrooms. By The time we put the jar down, I already knew this was going to be the most intense mushroom trip for me to date.. A few people decided to take off, and the other ladies that stayed,4 total, I found out, were the other trippers, which I thought was awesome that they were willing to just try on a whim!! So I head outside to be alone, I check my phone, and I almost don't recognize what I'm looking at.. But eventually, 1151 assembled And I head over to a child's play house backed up to the bamboo. An incredible feeling was coming over me! Nostalgia and wonder filled my thoughts as I looked up through the skylight, completely taken aback by the euphoria I felt by just breathing deeply!! Magnificent!! Another few minutes to myself And I see b and s looking around, obviously for me. I keep quiet and still, filling with the joy of the perfect hide and seek spot!!! I see b peer out the full door window, seeing nothing but darkness, he, s and t all come outside and call my name a couple times before running around the house, one after another, in rhythm, thinking the others found me. I watch them follow each other around for what seems like 10 minutes, searching everywhere but the most obvious, conspicuous place, finally b, coming from my left peeks in and declares his find to t and s. I stand up through the skylight and once again, we are squared off, just I'm about 8 feet away from them. We talk for a moment, jokes are cracked continuously, and we eventually decide we are going to the abandoned fire station down the road, of which I've never been!! Excitement welling up, I can't wait to finally check it out!! So we head in one last time to finish off the jar. I let them know that anything we take now would only prolong the trip, and probably won't intensify it anymore-- but I immediately retract my statement, exclaiming I really had no idea what to expect at this point!! As they get ready, I head back to the fire outside, still slightly blue in spots. I melt down onto the bench, feeling extremely fluid and a sharp sense of adventure!! I check the shroomery threads I'm involved in and decide i can't read shit and should put my phone up. Turned it off then right back on to check the time. 12:29.I look up and see t heading out the door and towards me. He shakes my hand and says thanks for the juice and that he's never tripped but one other occasion in which he had to calm down his company and play babysitter tripping balls.. No fun.. I reply, not a problem and reassured him that tonite would create some fine memories!! Off we go to the firehouse, but not before we totally trip out on the laser show in the trees and dance like fools for a moment! The walk over there seemed very long with a clear view of a busy highway behind us most of the way and a steady stream of conversation all around. Right before we get to the firehouse, a really intense trip hits all of us simultaneously!! And without warning!! All of the sudden, b starts yammering quite loudly about a porch light in front of us looking like a train.. He gets louder and starts laughing extremely loudly, I'm thinking oh shit he's freaking out!!!! We gotta help him out!! Someone's gotta-- and he stops.. And we talk shit to him about it!! Lol! 1:15 We arrive and duck under the single horizontal 2x4 blocking the entrance. And a New world started creating itself two feet at a time in the pitch black of the barricaded building. A phone light gets turned on, revealing fallen ceiling tiles and air ducts hanging. We explore together for a bit to get a feel of direction and then We headed to the tower shaft and climb on up.. Climbing a ladder in the pitch dark on mushrooms.. Ridiculous!! The view at the top of the tower.. Humbling. It turned into a moment of reflection on the last year of my life and I'm certain I'm on a very special path!! It does start to get hazy here but I recall looking at my phone and making out 2:??. Climbing down a ladder in pitch black on mushrooms-- insane!! Sobering almost!! The walk back was short although we were still going fairly hard!! Wild thoughts and loops kept trying to plague me but I tried not to think too much at all. Just focus on walking. We made it back to the house, but not before a stray dog peaked in and out of the shadows a few times, just a little final excitement.!! We stand and talk about the previous events for a while and I end up departing at around 3, realizing I was still deeply intoxicated as I attempt to drive straight(OH NO!!) Oh yea, I made it, unscathed! I open my door, struggle to find the light switch, and gaze at my huge waterbed that's about to swallow me. I go potty and immediately start stripping to my boxers on the way to my bed.. Turned on Netflix, nah, wasn't feeling it.. Minus the bear for the win!!!! Relaxing creative music and closed eyes took me in between dimensions! I saw kaleidascopes of office workers behind their desks.. I saw the classic color changing striped swirls and before I knew It... Retrospect 9:38am! Stretch yawn and spark a bowl, cuz I felt great! Not 100% mentally but I've been in the groove all day!! Physically feeling great! Easily a level 3 trip, and my first lemon tek which worked as it should have imo and also my first trip outside of my room/house.. An enjoyable experience, no doubt!
