Need help with understanding my Lemon Tek experience

Fellow shroomers,
At the weekend I lemon-tekked a low dose of Penis Envy Cubensis (0.5g) and ended up having an extremely intense and powerful experience. My original intention was to test the waters of this strain (as i had heard about it's infamous potency) and was expecting either one of the two following outcomes - 1) it doing nothing 2) it just producing a mild Level-1 (stoning) experience.
I was also prepared for the unlikely experience of this producing a full blown trip (as it did), but i thought this would be very unlikely.
I wanted to test the potency first so that i could gauge a proper dose (1.5 - 2.0g) in the near future.
I decided to do the lemon tek method because i wanted the trip to start quickly. However this didn't happen! I drank the lemon / ground up mushroom mixture and the first effects took around an hour to appear.
I won't drivel on with the details...but i ended up having an extremely strong, unnerving and (in the end) beautiful experience. At times it was so intense that it felt like my whole mind was being rearranged...strange effects such as experiencing multiple (conflicting) emotions simultaneously and thought loops - in short it was a white knuckle ride which lasted for around 4 hours. Mild visuals were also present, but it was the mind fuck and body high that really got me here.
Luckily my partner was on hand to assist me and comfort me through the rough journey...but man, this really was something else for such a low dose.
Now - i'm aware that placebo can play an important role here, but i'm pretty sure this wasn't the case. This was the most fucked up drug feeling that i've felt for a very long time (for the record, i have tripped hard on 1.5g of Liberty Caps and also Mescaline).
As a result i have a new found respect for our sacred mushroom mother.
Is this an experience typical of using the Lemon Tek method? I have heard stories that it makes the mushrooms stronger, but i don't believe that. Or is it the case of Penis Envy just being unbelievably potent? or is it a mixture of the two?
I guess i'm just dumbfounded at what happened the other day and need some clarity on why this happened.

I haven't tried PE but from my incessant reading of trip reports here I feel like I can comfortably say that it is the variety which is producing these profound effects at a low dose. Lemon tek does potentiate the trip but lemon teking half a gram of standard cubensis would probably still not produce a full blown trip. PE is also well known for producing more of a "mindfuck trip".

Interesting - I should probably read some other trip reports here then. These didn't feel like regular Cubensis, that's for sure. They felt even stronger than the Liberty Caps that i used to have back in the day.

Ok so after reading some other trip reports it sounds like i'm not alone. The complete mind fuck that i experienced seems to be a common theme (like you said).
I guess i should probably write my own report about this.

never tried penis envy strain before but lemon tekking basically turns the psilocybin into psilocin, also known as 4-OH-DMT. maybe it was the direct DMT-like nature of the trip that blew your mind...

Yeah, 0.5g of regular cubensis would not have done that. I haven't tried PE, so I don't know how much more potent it is.

The slow onset isn't IME. Within five minutes I feel something and things are really taking off by the 1hr mark. Lemon Tek, I think, makes the trip more intense for a given dosage by compressing the length of it.

Where if you're alone, you know, you either come through it or you die, but in any case you avoid the fuss.'" - Terrence McKenna

Funny, it did remind me of DMT actually.
