Preparing for my first 8th
    #26460881 - 01/30/20 07:28 PM (3 years, 11 months ago)

Hey all,

As I'm coming down from a 2.4g mushroom trip, I've decided that I am ready for the full experience and to take an 8th for my next trip. I am going to give myself at least 14 days until I embark so I can experience the trip to its full extent. However, I am unsure about which method of consumption to go with. I can either eat capsules (.2g each) or empty the powder into OJ, lemon juice, or Tea. I made tea the last few times and personally cant stand the smell or flavor so I think I'm going to skip that. As for OJ or lemon tek, I'm afraid that might be a bit intense for my first 8th. And for capsules, I just dont want to swallow 17 capsules.

What are some of your thoughts and recommendations regarding dosing and preparing for my journey?

Tea. Always tea. (For me)
You can make tea nice with other ingredients.
Ginger. Cinnamon. Fruits (citrus included). Honey. Maple Syrup. Mint.

I used some spicy ginger tea, lemon juice, and agave sweetener for flavor but I probably could have used more of all 3. I like the high that is produced from tea, which I think is slightly less intense as OJ or lemon tek, but it's a little short (3-4 hours in my experience). I'm tempted to just swallow the capsules and buckle up for the 8 hour ride

8 hours? WTF. I've never had a mushroom trip that lasted longer than 5 hours

Look into making a tasty tea, by filtering out all the mushroom matter and using flavor.

You will only ever find your self in trips, let the mushroom guide you and fully trust it's for your highest good, the mushroom spirit will always show you things you are ready to experience, be aware of the mind/ego and don't buy into its thoughts especially during the come up, you're headed to a destination!

Lemon TEK for 30 min with ground mushrooms (add OJ right before you drink) if you want the least taste impact, hits quickly (not bad if you want the shorter end of the range for duration).

Intense, sure, but Terence says “if you don’t think you did too much, your probably didn’t do enough”.

Otherwise, capsules.

EVERYTIME i hear "An eighth of shrooms" i think of this song! :heart:

Cudi is a legend!

But i think he splits it so by lyric he took 1.75g which could very well still show you the universe :mushroom2:

Yes the correct lyrics are “split an 1/8 of shrooms just so I can see the universe.”

How have your experiences been thus far on taking 2g range? Everything has been going well I'm assuming? You like the headspace?

An 8th definitely grips you by the balls more, but still not too much where you become lost and unsure of what is going on. I've found 4/4.5g to be the sweet spot for me. Enough where I can still get lost, but still able to ground myself if need be.

I personally, don't have a preferred method, other than just consuming the mushrooms. I'm not opposed to tea, LemonTek or just simply eating them. I have yet to powder them and drink them with OJ - which quite honestly sounds pretty good.

I do enjoy a fast comeup.. but I also do enjoy eating them because the waves are so much different. They've both got their pro's - but take you to the same place just a different path. 2+2=4 but so does 3+1 kind of thing.

With any intentions on stepping up on dosage, be sure to make sure your set and setting are on point, have a nice solid playlist you've dedicated to a trip, strap in your seatbelt.. and let the trip come to you!

Things can get a little overwhelming, which is normal but if you have a good set&setting you will just laugh and feel the euphoria that these mushrooms give you. The decoding of the system it displays in front of you that you will not be able to put into words - but you WILL understand.

With everything, be safe and keep an open mind. You will love the journey. Pick whichever way of dosing you prefer. Nothing wrong with taking the capsules, eating them, tea and or a LemonTek... as long as you're introducing them to your digestive track, the magic will take care of the rest.

Good vibes my friend - enjoy the upcoming journey!

So far, I've really enjoyed my trips in the 2g range. Even though I get slight visuals (textures breathe and blend ect..) I'm still grounded in reality and can function within the confines of my apartment (interacting with outsiders is absolutely terrifying still). When I ate 2g with two of my best friends, we had a super fun and recreational night but when I eat 2g by myself I tend to meditate and get pretty deep and introspective. Although, I loved tripping with friends I might go solo for my 8th. My GF doesnt mind trip sitting too - she doesn't judge, she enjoys making sure I'm safe, and she actually gets a kick out of it so it works out well. Plus she always knows the right movie or show to put on when I cant figure out the remote.

There’s quite a few things I want to say to you,,but first, hello!

Don’t kid yourself that 3.5g is “the full experience”! It will get you a decent level 3, bordering into level 4 maybe. 7g would make the 3.5g feel like nothing. 14g would make the 7g feel like nothing. It would be near impossible for you to physically be able to consume a dose high enough to overdose on. The trips increase with dose, ad Infinitum.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating you take 7g! No friend, 3.5g will be a serious jump for you from 2g. You will really enjoy the jump, too.

But then also, dude, you need to man up! Tea every time. If the taste is so abhorrent to you, well then just pinch your nostrils so you can’t taste it!. But seriously, down in one. Less than a second; reward, 5 hours of profundity. I always do Lemon Tek tea - lemon and mushrooms and boiling water, strain after 20 mins, cool and down in one. But yeah I always rinse the glass out with orange juice, which quick;y gets rid of any after taste. The lemon does a good job of masking thenshroom taste too, though I find lemon vile 🤣

Don’t get hung up on the taste, Nd enjoy your step up to serious 3.5g psychedelic territory. You’ll ultimately find your sweet spot; a dose you really enjoy, for in between the “heroic doses”.

Much love dude, and stay safe
❤️

When I make tea, I put the whole or chunks of whole fruit bodies into the water for around 15 minutes then simply strain them out. Leaves behind almost no flavor.

My problem might have been that I try to savor and enjoy the tea while it's hot by drinking it slow. Maybe I just need to let it cool and down it then rinse with OJ like previously mentioned.

Only thing I’d add to that, corundum, is make sure you squeez4 the mushrooms dry through your strainer 🤣
