It's cool when you find lotsa people to shroom with, the more the merrier... I agree that if you eat them too often the experiences will definately not be as pleasant than if you just eat them once in a while. maybe there is some potential for a shroom boom sometime soon :smile:

There was an acid boom in the 90's?
I must have missed it. The 80's and 90's acid situation seemed very similar to me. One difference was more liquid in the 90s (and better quality) but I was in college (for the first half) and I fugure I had better connections.
Did usage soar? Got any references?

Shrooms, as far as I can tell, are really popular. The only problem is, at least around here, nobody knows where to get them. And so the only people who have them are those who grow or are friends of someone who grows. TONS of people ask me all the time where they could get like a couple bags of them, and of course, always say no:) since I would not have any sort of idea on who grows them:)

i think its foolish alltogether :) i hear ya tho. i was the first person among all my aquaintences to actually take shrooms and have a good trip. about a year after my first purchaced trip. i was harcore into hunting. and once i started finding them i was finding them evryday. i even had my rotation of patches that i would check evry few days. it got to the point that i would see green grass and walk towards it. or take the scenic route through a pasture and emerge with mushrooms to share with people at my destination. before me, there was the occasional mushroom user in this area, mush was a rare thing. and only available in certain groups.
untill one day i found a huge patch covering about an acre of lawn after a major thunderstorm. i grabbed a few friends of mine who were hardcore chemical-heads and we filled a few ball caps and just put them in a big heap on a picknick table in the center of the park. i dug out all my dried mushies that i had saved in a pizza box and layed them out in 3 gram lumps on tha table. we then declared it mushroom day. most of the people never had them before, but it was a unanimous thumbs up. one guy was a little tripped out, but then he hopped into a new camaro and was given a crazy mystery drive. he became one with the back seat and speant the rest of the day grining and laughing. one group of guys got lost and found themselves on the army base, then they ran into MPs and freaked out. the thought they had run accross a military secret operation. i pretty much just stuck to a few people. it was fun, i gotta say i much prefer tripping when evryone else is also tripping. being the only person makes me sorta self consious. especially when im trying to bury myself in a handful of dirt in front of the post office so nobody will see my legs and arms are all twisted into spirals 100 ft long.

after that day evrybody had to have em. i was more than happy to share, but i never had them for long. ive since made the desision not to share with anyone but close friends tho, i got sorta tired of being called mushroom mitch.
but now evrybody got a taste for them. if that doesnt make them in demand and more available i dont know what will.
ive never once considered selling them and i got alot of flack from my peers for this. people started talking shit like i think their sacred or holy and therefore cant be sold. or i find it disrespectful to the mushroom. maybe i feel that way while tripping. but fact is i promised my mother i wouldnt become a drug dealer. and thats a good enough reason for me. i havent got anything against free enterprise. but a promise is a promise.
i think shrooms have evry potential to become popular. i also think however they can easily fall from grace if used to often or too many at once. take acid for example. its pretty hard to get too. the main difference is it doesnt grow evrywhere like shrooms. :) gotta love em. the perfect drug.
non addictive, no carcinogens, no lung damage, and they feel so damn good. if there was a way to make them cheap and easy to grow that would be sweet. as it is now i think most people cant be bothered.

There is no way DMT will ever become a cliche party drug like X. I don't think too many Rollers would be into the voyage this trip has to offer!

around here I guess the big thing is weed (of course) and X. some people snort lines on weekends and shit... so yeah I ask lotsa people if they want mushrooms or if they like 'em and I always get the same responses, ie: "shrooms are not my thing", "they make me too edgy", etc.

The reason shrooms are not popular is lack of availability. I know plenty of people who REALLY want mushrooms, but won't do acid, and never can find mushrooms. They want the "natural" trip. Whatever.

around where i live shrooms arent POPULAR, but more people do them than acid bcuz of the reputation acid gets--i personally dont enjoy shrooms (i only did a relatively small dose the first time (1 gram of cubies), so i only got very minor visuals) I like acid a lot bcuz i know it will definitely get me fucked up, shrooms vary in potency too much (with so many different species) and u cant measure the potency either so...ya

whats up with people saying shrooms are popular?? look they are not.. they are no big concern to the U.S. DEA compared to Ecstacy, LSD, etc. Well I would say they are popular at outdoor raves specially the psy-trance parties.

>1. Shrooms are aren't avialbe (especially in the north!) as one may know of!

Yes, they are.

>2. There not as easy to conseal as acid, or any other drug!

They're not much different than weed in that aspect.

>3. There more expensive!

You can get shrooms for under $80 an oz if you have good hookups.

>4. Rumor has it, that your more likely to have a bad trip on shrooms vs. Lsd!

This is just completely untrue. Shrooms are far more forgiving than acid. Acid lasts longer and is a "harsher" trip.

>5. Lsd is the more popular drug of the ages!, now its X.

Agreed.

Join the cause! Legalize in Canada!

Yes, and because shrooms are not widely available, most people don't have good hookups and do pay $25 1/8 or higher!

Oh yea, it is outrageous what shrooms can command. The situation here is similar to that which other people describe, many people want them, pretty much no one can get them. Hopefully my monkey can get his spores and start growing soon!

c007jason ~ "4. Rumor has it, that your more likely to have a bad trip on shrooms vs. Lsd!"

And that is all it is, a RUMOR. No truth to that whatsoever. Individual experiences on psychedelic substances differ from person to person, it is entirely subjective wheather or not a person has a good or bad experience.

Just A Punk ~ "completely untrue. Shrooms are far more forgiving than acid. Acid lasts longer and is a "harsher" trip."

Just A Punk while it may be true that acid lasts longer than shrooms, your statements that lsd is harsher than shrooms is as false as c007jason's statement. It is subjective. You are spreading false information, please refrain.

and I must add that according to DAWN (Drug Abuse Warning Network Staff that Mushrooms are considered the number one drug of choiice by young Americans, not x or pot and followed by alcohol, than pot and then x.

dump19 - "To be honest I dont want any of these shroom booms because it will be abused my posers, which will eventually kill off its uniqueness"

So you 'like' shrooms because not everyone has done them and it makes you feel cool/special because you have done them? In my book that makes you a poser. How would a boom in the popularity of magic mushrooms make a subjective, introspective experience any less unique to the individual user? You are pretty silly.

I think that shrooms aren't that popular because they aren't as easy to get as marijuana/alcohol. I am in gr.11, and I have done shrooms a few times (maybe 8 times), but I've done weed countless times. Everytime I went to buy dope, I would ask about shrooms. Once in a while, he would have some...
Also, whoever said it's a "culture" thing, I agree... If rappers started rappin' about shrooms more often, and more and more people said "shrooms, what are they? Let me try them..." then they would be in higher demand, and they would get more popular... Right now, in my high school in Ontario, I would have to say that not many people have tripped on shrooms... I think this is because most of them don't hear a lot about shrooms, so they aren't interested in tripping...

shiznit, i dont disagree withanything you said, I just wanted to comment about your logo. it says, "marijuana info", but do you really know anything more about marijuana than the average joe? Do you consider your self to be a marijuana enthusiast? Are you a connissuar of fine cannabis and hashish? Do you know much about the 10,000 year history between marijuana and man. Are you aware of the social, cultural, politcal and spiritual impact marijuana has had on civilization and society over the centuries? Just wondering ;) check out jack herrers book, the hempire wheres no clothes

maybe it's because lots of people (most of the people i know) don't truely understand how shrooms work.

they think that anything that can "mess you up THAT bad" has to be doing it by killing half your brain and turning you into a freak.

i find that when i start explaining how neurotransmitters work, and how psilocin affects them, that they become more interested in the actuall experience.

in short: it looks like all the anti-drug propaganda actually does have an anti-drug effect.

Holographic Mind, you said:
"Do you consider your self to be a marijuana enthusiast?"
-I am to the best of my ability... What I mean is that I do as much "good" for marijuana as I can... I send letters, educate my peers, etc. I like marijuana. I want to spread the "good news" about it. Although I have never actually grown it, I consider myself to be a "newbie enthusiast".

"Do you know much about the 10,000 year history between marijuana and man. Are you aware of the social, cultural, politcal and spiritual impact marijuana has had on civilization and society over the centuries?"
- I'm not the most educated person out there, but I do consider to know more than the average "joe". I learn as much as I can about weed, and I'm sure that the learning will go on indefinitely...

BTW, the picture that says "marijuana info" in my info. is the title of my MJ web-site...
<a href="http://www.angelfire.com/art/dank"> Click here to view it... </a>
The site is not done yet, and wont be for a while, but basically I created it to let others know the truth about MJ. I'm sick and tired of all the lies concerning marijuana, and if my site changes one person's mind about weed, then I believe that it served its purpose...

I hope that you did not take offense to my marijuana info pic... It's just representing my site... Peace.

I mean that i know that shrooms are less intenst, and shrooms are not as long lasting as acid.

But its a general fact that shrooms have a less tendence to have a good trip then acid. Im not saying that there difference in that way, im saying that in a small percenage, say that they have had more bad trips on shrooms then acid! Even though its shorter, doesn't mean that your going to have a good trip, i understand its a mind-set!

Plus shrooms are very hard to find even in big citys, so growing is the best way to get them!

Where I'm from people will pay almost anythnig for mushies. Coke is easier to get!

Back in the 60's you could get a vile of POTENT psilocybin extract which would only require a few drops on the tounge for a hefty experience. I think there is alot more behind mushrooms then people think. Alot of people are sketchy about taking a shroom they think it's going to kill them or somthing.

c007jason---Dont make statements such as---"But its a general fact that shrooms have a less tendence to have a good trip then acid". -- I dont know where you came up with that idea but its pretty much false info.

As a matter of fact the opposite is true for me and for a lot of other people I know. I have always had better trips on shrooms than on acid, and the same goes for most of my friends too. I know a lot has to do with the person and perhaps what he or she is use to and familiar with. Say for instance if all you ever knew was acid, then you might not feel as much at home on shrooms. But from my own experiences and from much of what I have heard from other people it would seem that shrooms tend to produce better trips. And I would say they are a hell of a lot more fun and colorful too.

i still support my theory, of statisics, and facts from what i have aquired!

i want you to know that i love shrooms, and i love acid, i probibly love shrooms more then acid, but im just stating the fact that most see!

Im not spreading false info. this is mostly a factual/opinonistic fourm! But i recommend everyone to try shrooms, or acid! there both great!

The thing I LOVE about shrooms is you never hear some hippie saying "the shrooms were much better back in the...." Shrooms are and always are shrooms, varying strains, various levels of potency. I despise those who are of the mindset that everything they tried in the 60's and 70's couldnt hold a candle to what is around today. They are likely right about the acid today but soooooooo wrong about the weed. But the shrooms are a constant, they cant have been 'better' back then

About shrooms being less intense than acid....you havent taken enough shrooms. Yes by weight, a tab of acid is more potent that an equal ammount of shrooms. However, I suggest that you eat 8-10g's of shrooms and then come back and post your claim about the strength and duration of shrooms vs acid. In my experience acid will not dissassociate you from reality as far as shrooms will, you will trip but shrooms offer such a deeper trip. IMHO of course YMMV

All this talk of trippin is makin me crazy. Considering I havent tripped in??, damn it would take me awhile to remember. I know "where", it was the Moody Blues at Radio City probably around 84, 85 had some botter acid. Ive tripped about 20 times in my life maybe more I cant really remember and only one of those times was with mushrooms and it was a lite trip on Christmas eve, it was cool no big visuals just a perpetual shit eating grin type of trip. But I love trippin and miss it alot and am looking so forward to my first flush (havent started yet though still waiting for my spores). Im looking forward to the legendary "mushroom experience". I really need to leave the realities of city life accasionally. Hoping mushrooms will give me a better perspective and help me get in tune with my spiritual side. If anybody needs some spirituality its me. Think mushrooms will do something for me? I basically stay away from other drugs. Im very interested in the psilocybes thanks to you guys here at the shroomery.
Peace & safe trips...

the reason shroomz are not popular is because we don't want them to be, can u just see the cops pulling you over and after they ask that mandatory question about if you been drinking they ask "U been eating shrooms today??"

>>Eminem raps about shrooms all the time, there's even a whole song about them (My Fault).

And you want to talk about one uneducated drug user..."just let the x destroy your spinal cord..." nevermind all the stereotypes and such in "My Fault." Like his beats but he defiantely has no idea about the drugs he does.

I can't stand Eminem, he has no idea of the drugs he talks about, and I don't like his beat.

I don't like it when people say the your more often to have a bad trip on mush. over another drug. when people hear that they will have a disposition towards that drug, and if a first timer does happen to try mushrooms that disposition is in the back of there head so when they start tripping (body rush, carpet looks like the ocean, ect...) it will come up and they think they are having a bad trip. now I've never tried lsd and probably never will (I like to consider myself all natural) but i don't think that lsd has the queziness that mushrooms have, so when you combine the rumor that you'll likely have a bad trip on mushrooms over lsd, and you combine the possible nausea they will think their having a bad trip yada yada.
the key thing to remember is that YOU controll the trip, if you have bad thoughts before the trip you'll likely have bad thoughts during the trip, vice versa

well, i find em to be rather unpop. for several reasons, first like previous people have mentioned there just isn't as much concern about em, 2nd the lack of news coverage, 3rd well lets face it they aren't easy to get, and growing isn't that easy either (at first), compared to say pot; its a plant and almost everyone has had a plant of some sort before if not your parents probably had one. So you kinda know what to do with plants, but who's parents grow mushies?(maybe a few)

and well i find it good that they arn't popular, there are so many idiots out there, and unless a caring drug dealer gives em the correct dosages and good mushies they really shouldn't do em, do you really want someone who dosen't know much about em trying to go out picking ??

I talked to this fof and what a fucking retard, his story wass something like; they were out cannoeign in BC and they decided to go mushie hunting, so they stopped at a smal island and looked around, when i asked what kind of m. mushies they were looking for he replied: "i think it's a little brown mushroom" luckly they didn't find anything. It kinda scares me when i hear something like this, those guys could have killed them selves in the middle of a BC forest.

I've traveled all across the USA and am a very big electronic music enthusiast,I can't believe there's a post (why shrooms arent popular) - Thats outrageous!!!! Everywhere I've ever been shrooms are the one thing people are always looking for-but can never get ahold of.The people I know who sell them are never consistant Cuz they run out right away.

I think mushrooms are popular but there is no supply. And people are starting to rap about mushrooms. Eminem has a song about mushrooms and so does X-zibit (sp). If there were enough good fields or if people knew what to look for the supply would quickly be met. Luckily people are fools and will not look up the right kind on the infonet or in books. I have yet to see a psilocybe in a field. One time after a rain I went to a huge pile of shit (from a stable) and looked and looked. Only wierd inky caps and then bam. These white mushrooms with a reddish brown dot were growing in the cracks of the composted horse shit. I got a huge paper ba full but the gills were yellow and they did not stain blue; but these fooled me and would have easily and propably killed someone not as informed as I.

I have never heard or read about "the great acid boom of the 90's."

Now that these rappers are rapping about mushrooms people are talking alot about them but seldom have seen or done them.

There seemed to be more LSD available in the late 80's through the 90's and it continues...I don't remember ever coming across gel tabs until the early 90's.....

>>1. Shrooms are aren't avialbe (especially in the north!) as one may know of!

>Yes, they are.

No drug is "always" available

>.>4. Rumor has it, that your more likely to have a bad trip on shrooms vs. Lsd!

>This is just completely untrue. Shrooms are far more forgiving than acid. Acid lasts longer and is a "harsher" trip.

Both are psychedelic drugs and have the potential to produce negative experiences. The one benefit of shrooms is that they don't last as long. IMO, LSD has a far more comfortable body buzz.
