I can't say I've ever had a mushroom trip last 5 to 8 hours from just one single dose.
For myself...With one single dose, consumed by eating them and not in a tea, the main portion of the trip lasts about 3 to 4 hours, with another hour or two of coming down and a lingering afterglow/buzz. But I'm usually quickly on my way down by the 5 hour mark after dosing.
If I take my dose via tea instead of eating them...The main portion of the trip lasts about 2 hours or so and I am coming down by around 3 hours after dosing. Give or take a wee bit.
Occasionally I'll have a trip that doesn't line up with the usual....last year I had a mushroom trip where I ate them instead of taking them in a tea, and for some reason the trip didn't reach the "peak" intensity until around 3 hours after dosing and the trip lasted a little longer than usual....
...but for the most part, with the doses I normally take, I'm coming down before the 5 hour mark.
I always give myself a 6 hour window for mushroom trips...From the point I dose to the point I feel sober enough to do something like drive a car or "function" in public is about 6 hours. I'm usually still "glowing" and "buzzing" for a while after the trip has settled down, but my cognition/executive functions are usually intact & working again by 6 hours after dosing.
Only when I continue to dose more have I had mushroom trips last around 8 hours (or more).
If your trips are typically lasting 5 to 8 hours it's probably just your individual body chemistry/metabolism/enzyme levels .

Yeah mushrooms always last 6 hours for me (even if I take a high dose), with most of the trip being over by hour 5. I mentioned 8 in my post here just because time dilation can make it subjectively seem longer but I wasn't suggesting it ever actually lasts 8. Sorry if I added to the confusion for anyone. In terms of actual time, it definitely only ever lasts 6 hours for me.
Sometimes it takes longer for me to come up like openmind is talking about if I'm eating dry mushrooms, but still.

Right, 5-6 hours, and that's with full doses as tea from fresh. If I redose at about an hour in it can be 8 before the last hurrah occurs, and with mushrooms that can feel like an eternity. Lower doses last less time, so there's that as well, but lower doses are never as rewarding, more of a recreational thing.
And my opinion is that that's all just about right.

I've only ever lemon tekked mushrooms and it's usually completely over in 4-5 hours

Back when, I used to be pretty disappointed by the shorter durations. But, nowadays I find my time after coming down to be almost equally enjoyable as the thick of the psychedelic experience... obviously in a different way, but it's become a part that I look forward to and sometimes seek out more than the trip itself - sometimes it's the explicit reason for me to have taken a psychedelic. Likewise, I find my rituals before consuming them also enjoyable.
So, all in all, the 'duration' is pretty much the whole day a lot of the time..
