Im nearing 6ft,weigh 165pounds and have done mushies 4 times before, I did 30grams of some fresh columbian cubensis last weekend and didnt get anything major at all.....am I dosing too small for my size or what?

hm. I'd recommend using a dosage calculator (just google for one) and then almost doubling that amount. Also if you have maoi's take those, or if you have salvia smoke that while tripping. Thats just crazy but beware, it often induces bad trips to the inexperienced.

Try 30-40g wet or 3.5g dry. Hang in there, many people don't trip their first time. Plus mushrooms are very variable, each shroom is different. Sometimes they could be very potent, sometimes they won't even get you off. Just keep at it. Sometimes people require a large dose to break their mental set before they can trip. Of course, that means a very powerful experience.
Have you been eating the same shrooms all four times? Did you ever trip off of them?

I just took 3g dry EQ's last weekend and they took me much further than I expected. I used single hits of lsd a few times many years ago, and low doses of shrooms twice before. I ate only light foods that day and I didn't eat anything for three hours before I dosed the mushies. I chewed them dry and washed down with water. I would try to take them on an empty stomach before you increase your dose too much.

I belive dosage doesn't have much to do with the size of your body. You may just not be too sensative to psilocybin. I'm 5'11 and 172 IBS and I can benefit from 2 grams dry. Maybe the mushrooms weren't very potent.
Here's the dosage calculator on Shroomery:

Don't jump to a heroic dose. Keep taking reasonable doses until you trip (which you WILL). I had to eat shrooms 3 times before I trippe, but once I did, I could trip on even LOWER doses.

hmmmmmmmm always best to start low and work your way up. I've never achieved a level 5 trip but i have had very good level 4 trips where everything freezes and time kinda stops LOL......this was on 90 grams of fresh copelandia though, some people think i am mad, it's just my tolerance. what i am trying to say is, no one can tell you, not even a calculator, it's trial and error. i would say to you though, try 10 grams wet of copelandia. I've ate 60grams of cubensis in Amsterdam, it didn't do nothing, well i think i felt bit giggly!

Your BMI shouldn't have anything to do with your dose.. unless you have an abnormally large or small brain.
I'm 5'11, 215 lbs and I trip harder on eighths than my buddy who's about 5'4 and 150.
