Inoculated 4 jars today. Fingers crossed for fruits instead of overlay.

ha yes the overlay is a PITA
I never returned to Nats after the one round of tubs that overlayed two inches thick, eventually fruited a bit, but then were not very potent either 
On that genetic roll of the dice I crapped out good. I think I have a print still, may try again at some point

They say natalensis overlay is edible. Why not.

You ever peel it off and hold it? Lets just say its not the most appetizing looking thing ever. Ive wanted to try nats for a long time now. Ive had plenty of overlay. Could never bring myself to eat it.

I just recently got into nats, and I know that I'm preaching to the choir, but I love them so much. As much as I like shrooms, the anxiety and body load from cubes really put me off from wanting to do them more than a couple of times a year (microdosing with them has been lifechanging, though).
What's your favorite dosage?
I did a test dose of 1 gram from my harvest and had a great time by myself. This weekend, I'm planning to do them with a friend, and I'm leaning towards doing around 1.25 - 1.5 for each of us. I wouldn't imagine that a slightly higher dose would make it more likely that either of us would experience anxiety (and I have a hard time seeing these resulting in a "bad" trip, but you never know). The only negative thing that I experienced was a mildly-uncomfortable rush of adrenaline on the come-up, but I wouldn't really call it anxiety-inducing.
We're both experienced shroom users, and my friend has a bit more tolerance than I do. This might be a silly question, but do you think 1.5 would be a reasonable dose to jump into?

if you're anxious about anxiety then there's a good chance you'll end up anxious imo. if your setting's good then you two will probably have a wonderful time! welcome to the shroomery! i'd stay under 2g if you'll be interacting with strangers

it is definitely an icky wet squishy mess of tissue, but pretty and airy when dry. it's a fantastic trip too. i've been thinking of doing another tub or two of my overlay culture just to have it available when the mood hits.
still want some fruits though, i'm crossing my fingers with ya

Thanks! It's just going to be the two of us in a private place, so it should be a good time.

Janus62 said: 14 days since S2B at 1:4 with a 1" top layer. First tub of 3 is starting to pin. Unlike the cakes, overlay is minimal.
Growing in 30L plastic tubs with 4 x 0.5cm holes at sub level on long sides, 3 x 0.5cm holes 5cm from top on short sides, lids turned upside down. Daytime temp 70f, night time 58f.

Given that between 1 and 1.5g fucked me up on Friday, I'm not too fussed about a canopy on this grow, but all 3 tubs are looking good so far (unless anyone sees something suggesting otherwise?).
I'll update in a week or two. 
Looking good now. Minimal overlay, likely due to wonderful genetics in the print Moopers gave me. I was using totes with opaque lids, figuring they'd be fine seeing as how some growers stack their tubs, but as soon as they started pinning I noticed the babies were straining towards the sides, suggesting that light really matters to nats. I swapped the lids for clingwrap with slits in a couple of days back - I had to guess how many slits, but surface conditions seem fine so I think I got lucky. All new pins seem to be headed up now.

Yes, welcome Brother.
I'm new to nats too. My first 'go' was about a month ago - I need at least 5g of cubes for liftoff (likely due to some meds I'm on; not SSRI), so I went for what I thought would be a safe 3g. I went in having asked the shrooms to dig around the dark parts of my mind and clear stuff out. Things were pretty intense, with tears and wailing, but I still counted it as an excellent trip.
Last weekend I took 1g in the hope of a nice gentle buzz, but even that kicked the shit out of me and lasted over 6 hours. Fabulous little beasties!
I agree with NFG - start low.

Same with me. I hate cubes for the same reasons. However, I took 2.9g of Nats and it was amazing. With tea, the onset was still a bit uncomfortable, but so lightening fast it didnβt matter. Then I was clear headed for the rest of the trip. It felt about 1.5-2 times as strong as cubes for me.

There will always be some anxiety when transitioning into a different state of mind. I take nats weekly and I still get some anxiety, but it is most definitely an easier transition than some other species for me personally. And the experience for me is clear and uplifting, large doses of cubes sometimes get kind of muddled and confusing for me.

I thought this was interesting and may explain a bit of why Nats help my wife so much with her multiple scleroses, an autoimmune inflammatory disease.

That's really interesting, even if 95% of it went right over my head.
I wonder if cubes have any of the same compounds.

I havenβt read any studies confirming, but Iβm almost certain they do. Theyβre very closely related and my wife started micro dosing on cubes over a year ago. She only recently switched to nats. The only difference she notices is less negative side effects with, but all the same benefits.

I have actually read all of that information before, but the study I read was done with cubensis, pan cyans and natalensis. And yes they all have anti-inflammatory qualities.
