Possible to trip off airborne particles from nearby monotub?
    #26713580 - 06/02/20 09:43 AM (3 years, 7 months ago)

I had a series of wildly vivid and horrific nightmares which woke me around 5 am. For a minute or two I felt particularly off, but I have sleep apnea and woke on my back, so I chalked it up to the asphyxiation I’d obviously just endured. The world, however, looked and sounded different. While admiring the pleasing manner in which everything was made up of interlocking shards of stained glass, it suddenly dawned on me... I was tripping.

I hadn’t eaten any specimens, but I keep two tubs right next to my bed. The only logical conclusion I can reach is that I ingested airborne particles, but I couldn’t find any information about how likely that is (mostly because my searches pulled up more popular topics related to “trip breathing mushroom” etc).

It didn’t last more than 45 minutes. Obviously I wasn’t prepared mentally or logistically, so I ate a big meal which always helps me wind down. Then I went back to sleep. But I’m not confused or mistaking simple hyperventilating for a cubensis jaunt. I know that feeling, that distinct crispness of quiet, and kinship with oft overlooked details. I know what door I stumbled through.

Also, I have never been known to sleepwalk. Wife sleeps in the same bed and confirmed that the most sleep activity she’s ever noticed is a rare verbal outburst, so it’s extremely unlikely I had an undocumented sleep-nosh.

Any thoughts?

Airborne particles from mushrooms would be very  unlikely. Even if they did, the amount needed to make someone trip is far more than the amounts that could get airborne. Besides, the high humidity in the tub would make the possibility of creating airborne particles almost zero because of the surface tension of the water thin film.

However, it has recently been found that we can produce endogenous DMT, and that DMT can protect cells against damage from hypoxia. I wonder if there is a mechanism by which our brains produce DMT in response to asphixia. Those are my thoughts. Here is a link on the protective effects of DMT against hypoxia.

Sounds like somebody needs a sleep study!

Sleep paralysis maybe.

When I first started I could’ve swore I was having some cevs after harvesting my first couple tubs lol.

100% the airborne spores have no effect on your mental.

That alone is helpful, and certainly puts my mind at ease.

And this is just... well, wow. My body is creating DMT to protect oxygen starved cells from dying as I choke while sleeping, thus creating a miniature episode indistinguishable from a cubensis outing. Seems both absolutely wild and completely plausible!

Thanks so much for the reply and knowledge.

So does that mean if you were on a fiber heavy diet you could shit in the yard and grow cubes??

That makes me wonder how covered in spores I really am after harvest. Especially those ones where your hands end up black.

It’d be funny if they lit up in blacklight and you could see where they went while you harvested.

Yeah I don't think our gut enzymes do well for spores.
But now that you said black light. I use one to check my grain jars for funky bits. Wife originally got it to look for scorpions cause fuck those guys.


But it works on healthy  cultures. Baddies show up in green.
