I recommend shrooms for beginners

They seem to be the most gentle psychedelic. You can tell they are shrooms. They have a great taste. If you can't find shrooms you can order cacti and take a cacti trip. dmt is harder to find and it is intense. LSD is more harsh, especially at high dosage. If you take a low dose you don't need to worry about LSD. Those are the psychedelics I have tried.

I wouldn't say shrooms are the most gentle psychedelic but they are good for beginners because of the duration, in my opinion. LSD and mescaline last a long time.

Shrooms should be easy to find because they are easy to grow. I ordered cacti before I found shrooms in my small town I live in right now. I needed to trip so bad I ordered cacti. Psychedelics should be legalized. All the danger stems from their illegality. You should take a course in psychedelics and get a license.

I actually feel the opposite. I do agree with some of your reasoning though, the short duration and benefit of knowing what you have. If the choice is mushrooms or something sold as acid on a piece of paper I'd definitely recommend mushrooms. Otherwise, availability being the same, I'd recommend mescaline > LSD > mushrooms mainly due to the gentle nature of the compound and the control the user has on them. Mushrooms seem more easy to turn dark to me, though that seems to be a very subjective thing, many find mushrooms more gentle, many acid.
I think we can all agree that mescaline is pretty gentle at low to moderate doses though, phenethlyamines in general are. This also assumes an open minded user. If someone has a preconceived notion that LSD is somehow more dangerous or mind altering than psilocin then regardless that that is not remotely true I would go with the mushrooms because of the whole set and setting thing.

Mushrooms have always been my friend. I've never had a bad trip on any psychedelic. I like tripping in the forest.

In my opinion it's all about dosage. I've taken mushrooms many times and love it but take to much and it's game over.ive also done lsd but never in high doses and have had great trips.

good one man
edit: Also I don't think the "shorter duration" is reason enough to recommend it over acid. By that logic smoked DMT would be best for beginners and to be quite honest at least form what I've heard....DMT actually seems quite optimal for beginners.
There's nothing really "short" about mushroom trips honestly. I've had trips that lasted 9 hours and I've had 5/6 hour trips that felt like a lifetime. LSD trips don't seem to distort time as much.

I've never done the thumbnail of LSD, but I've burned myself twice on it. A similar dose of mushrooms doesn't burn you. I've taken the 14 g shroom trip four times.

Thumbnail? You mean thumbprint lol.
What do you mean been burned? I've had a fair share of difficult and cataclysmic mushroom trips.

When I take two of these blotters, I totally lose perception of what's happening around me and I start walking all over the place without my controlling it. It starts to feel like someone is splashing acid on my brain and my brain sizzles. I'm pretty sure I got buzzed by a black helicopter on my first burn. There are microwave towers further up the mountain and they patrol frequently. I still don't know if the helicopter was there or not. That's about the same strength as 4 g of mushrooms. Anything like 7 g or over is always impossible to handle, but it doesn't burn you the same way. On 14 g I start to go blind and I can't tell so much what's happening around me. No one can handle a 14 g mushroom trip. I like taking 3.5 g of really good shrooms. I also like taking a single blotter of this LSD.

That's called a trance and just because high doses of mushrooms doesn't fuck up people's psyches as much doesn't mean it's better for beginners.
I find mushrooms no better for beginners than LSD in fact if anything LSD is more appropriate for noobs. Just because mushrooms don't "burn" you in the same way doesn't make them easier to handle. I know people who are very experienced with ayahuasca who are actually afraid to take mushrooms. For many people mushrooms can be just as serious, just as intimidating and just as intense as ayahuasca or iboga.

Years ago I was dumb and jumped from 7g to right around 14g the next time. I handled it, was hard, but I did. I was still aware of what was going on and could still walk. Buddy's mom used to do LSD and kept asking if I was ok. All I could come up with to say was, "Yes, I am just very intoxicated". Hell I didn't know how to describe it. People can handle 14g. I should not have jumped that much back then but I did and I was ok, kind of freaked a little at how intense things were but I was able to keep reminding myself I was fine and it would pass. ***Visuals were GREAT!***

How the hell are you guys able to remind yourself of shit like that on anything over 10 grams? How are you guys jumping from 7 grams to anything lol.
I see the 5 to 7 gram range to be a good stopping point.

This was years ago. I was a dumb ass to make that jump. I had some basic visuals, batter ones off 7g. I had always been told I could have true full hallucinations on them. Well I wanted to see. I personally saw a couple things that were not there BUT was it all inside my head and I imagined it or did my mind "project" it into my vision. I am not sure but fuck it was intense. I am also that guy who at partied drank 30+ beers or close to a half gal of hard liquor. Some way some how I was able to keep my mind on the fact that I did it to myself and it would go away.

I like 3.5 g. I've done it about 130 times. I started when i was 19 YO. I remember it as quite the adventure. I smoked $50 worth of cannabis every day. I used to like to go to the Dead lot and score a "weight" eighth from a Dead kid. I was lampworking glass pipes. I was practicing martial arts five hours a day. I was on top of the world! It was the bomb. I was eating Indian buffets and killer Thai food from the Thai house. I loved Rebecca's cinnamon rolls. They were the bomb, fresh every morning. California style Mexican burritos! That was in Santa Cruz, CA.

i find mescaline to be the best for beginners to be honest. Its very forgiving in low to medium doses
