1..What is most often your favorite dosage I havent tripped in almost a year - 3-4 grams is usually good 2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short? Never really thought about it. I took 1.5-2g's for my first trip, and every time after i would do an eigth or higher 3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark? Well ive done 10g's +/- in honey once, it was an alright trip, the mush were weak and for some reason i think there was some potency loss. Overall, it was just to intense, not even enjoyable 4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose? Yeah, ive been able to hold coherent conversations - to an extent 5..What is your most sought-after effect? The visuals. Sometimes the cognative alterations, but mainly the visuals 6..What is the least desirable effect? Anxiety, and the way it makes u look. If your trippin hard its difficult to just go to a store with some friends, cause ull clearly look like ur on a drug 7..Has this dosage ever failed you? Yeah, the same much i did the 10g's on. Very week - from the looks of them they looked like they were grown on cakes, so im guessin BRF 8..How often do you use this dose? I havent in over a year, but i plan on dosing within the next few months - ill see where it goes from there 9..How often would you want to use this dose? Theres to many factors that determine if id want to trip - one major one being my previous trips and how they went. So far tho im really lookin forward to one 10.What holds you back? Experiencing something i didnt want to experience
Awesome thread btw

1..What is most often your favorite dosage
Most often, 0.25gr Cubies with Lemon or 0.5gr without (empty stomach)
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short?
Effects might be too mild
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark?
Higher doses result in emotional immersion with intense effects, this is fine and dandy on a trip but not in the run-off-the-mill experimentsd I do between fullblown trips.
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose?
A high degree of control yet as much looseness of mind without seriously challenging the Ego. The dose is tweaked to be like this.
5..What is your most sought-after effect?
In these excursions it is self-discovery through an altered state, through being yourself but one foot off the ground.
6..What is the least desirable effect?
In these doseranges I want to explore THIS SIDE with a bit of help from the OTHER SIDE, and not the other way around like I do in high dosing. Obviously the least desirable effects would be Ego dissolution. Ego dissolution isn't the be-all, end-all. At the end of the day its your Ego who washes the dishes and pays the phone bill. To Thine Own Self Be True; I am exploring my Own Self.
7..Has this dosage ever failed you?
In the sense of underhitting or overhitting: no. It was spot on every time. 0.25/lemon can be a bit rough though when you're on the rise.
8..How often do you use this dose?
Once every three, four weeks or so.
9..How often would you want to use this dose?
Once every one or two weeks.
10.What holds you back?
A mixture of concern that the value of the effects might diminish and the fact that often the weeks go by without the desire arising.

1..Anywhere between 0.5-2.5g's of dried cubes
2..0.5g's cuts it a little close, I couldn't imagine having much of a trip on anything less
3..I'm more confident about trips in this range just because I've dosed this range more often, I know somewhat how it'll affect me. For the most part I just feel a little uncomfortable about taking larger doses, especially in public, and I rarely get a chance to trip away from everyone else so larger doses just aren't something I get the setting to do them in very often
4..Physically, yes. Mentally, no
5..Euphoria and anything interesting that happense with thought, thought patterns, or thought "images"
6..The chills, if you mean effects that most people would like, then probably the OEV's, they can still be nice though...
7..Only once but it was during a time of high-tolerance when I was first getting into shrooms
8..Well, I only seem to trip now once every 2-4 months, and odds are the dose will be in the range given, although higher doses are not always out of the question.
9..I already use this dose as much as I want
10.

Dude, I have the same thing with 0.3-0.4gr, at least with lemon in  For me 3-4gr is "shut up and take it", meaning slumped in a chair drooling, with a LOT of out-of-body time. That kind of intensity is twice a year at most for me.

I think it was the mush i was using. It seems that (Shrommery.org) home-grown is real potent (besides most BRF). When ever i was able to get mushrooms id buy a lot - 4oz usually, so all my trips were basically with the same stuff. There was one time where i got an oz of the best mush i ever had, they were small - way before veils were open, cracker dry, and potent as hell. I took 4g's and it sent me flying higher than on the 10g trip. This is what im hoping my mush will turn out like. Ill give your lemon dose a try for sure

There is a LOT of variance in potency! But still, 0.25gr is in the range of 2mg 4-HO-DMT so individual sensitivity definitely plays a role.
I find it VERY rewarding to experiment with nonchallenging low doses, and that I can recommend to anyone. Once you learn how to *feel* and be content with low doses, you'll get so much more out of high doses that you probably wouldnt want to go that high anymore. It saves on shrooms!
Have a good grow man!

1..What is most often your favorite dosage 4.00 grams cubensis
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short? I hate to just "take a look above the fence". A weak experience is, by far, the most traumatic effect I get from mushrooms.
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark? As I usually travel by myself, I want to keep the security margin.
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose? It all depends on the strength of the shrooms, but yes, most of the time.
5..What is your most sought-after effect? Spiritual and/or intellectual revelations.
6..What is the least desirable effect? Body load an anxiety
7..Has this dosage ever failed you? Yes, depending on shrooms strength. Once I got a mega trip on 4 grams of Golden Teachers (a dark, scary trip).
8..How often do you use this dose? Once every 3 or 4 months
9..How often would you want to use this dose? Once every 3 or 4 months, but it depends on the intensity and nature of the last trip. Sometimes I need more time to take grid of the experience.
10.What holds you back? Nothing really.

1..What is most often your favorite dosage 2-2.5g dried. 2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short? Visuals would be really tame and the trip seems to be a lot shorter. 3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark? I rarely trip at high doses anymore. 3g+ puts me in a place where I can't really do much but lay there. 4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose? At 2g, yeah. Still possible to hold conversations, although they normally get pretty deep and weird. Walking around and performing basic tasks is a little more taxing than usual, but still possible. 5..What is your most sought-after effect? The warm, fuzzy feeling you get in your stomach and the ability to talk about stuff you would never even think of when sober. Mild bending and warping visuals are a plus too. 6..What is the least desirable effect? At 2g, ego loss. It's happened before and I was no way ready for it. When I'm psyched up and more ready for it though its a welcome effect. 7..Has this dosage ever failed you? Nope. 8..How often do you use this dose? My past 3 or 4 trips have been at 2g. 9..How often would you want to use this dose? Once every three or so months. 10.What holds you back? Lack of people to trip with. Sometimes my friends just don't fancy it for months at a time, and I rarely trip on my own anymore.
I'm really curious about this lemon method now. Will try it for my next trip

1..What is most often your favorite dosage
3.5 grams cubensis
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short?
I dont have any experience with other types of mushrooms, but I know that often times 2-3 grams of cubensis usually doesnt take me far enough, unlees I get lucky.
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark?
Never comfortable knowing that theres a chance im gonna go absolutely fuckin insane. I dont think I like setting both feet entirely in mushroom land. Ive done it, and ill know when I need to do it again. Just not now.
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose? Yes, unless the shroom have hidden powers (super potent)
5..What is your most sought-after effect?
Realization of myself and of all that is around me.
6..What is the least desirable effect?
Confusion
7..Has this dosage ever failed you?
Yes
8..How often do you use this dose?
80%
9..How often would you want to use this dose?
Whenever I have the time to let loose and go slightly insane, but not completely fuckin bananas, which is only every couple of months. I find myself embracing routine sometimes.
10.What holds you back?
The thought that I might forget that in the end I am still *me*

1..What is most often your favorite dosage
3.5 grams
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short?
If I take less, I don't get quite the mind fuck I'm looking for. I like to be so into hyperreality that walking is difficult. 1.75 grams is my min dose.
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark?
anything over 5 g get s a little out of control. This is something I do like, once a year. My highest was 7 grams
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose?
yes, I don't have freak-outs at 3.5 g. I've gone out to parties on this dose. It just seems to be just enough, but never too much.
5..What is your most sought-after effect?
ego softening/insight
6..What is the least desirable effect?
The chills
7..Has this dosage ever failed you?
never
8..How often do you use this dose?
once a month to once every two months
9..How often would you want to use this dose?
as often as I do now
10.What holds you back?
nothing.

1..What is most often your favorite dosage
.5 to 1 gram
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short?
Nothing. I seem to be becoming ever-more sensitive to shrooms, so I'll probably start cutting down the dosage as I go along.
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark?
Too much anxiety with higher doses. Like you said, I want to bring the shroom into my world, not the other way around.
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose?
Yes. That's my goal-- to be able to master any state of conscioness I find myself in.
5..What is your most sought-after effect?
OEVs and the feeling of freedom.
6..What is the least desirable effect?
Anxiety and body load.
7..Has this dosage ever failed you?
Once 1 gram was way too intense.
8..How often do you use this dose?
Every couple of weeks or so.
9..How often would you want to use this dose?
About that much. 10.What holds you back?
I just wait until it feels right.

1..What is most often your favorite dosage
I guess I love all doses, depending on situation. 1.5-2.5 grams normally, because anything more than that and I like to be prepared properly.
2..Why not a lower dose? What will fall short?
I've taken doses as low as 1 gram where is still felt great. Certainly not psychedelic, but it feels like an instant detox, and I just feel amazing.
3..Why not a higher dose? What will overshoot the mark?
I've had 20 trips, all went well for me, ranging up to 4 grams. My first trip, when I was a reckless ignorant teenager, was 5.7 grams, and I had no drug experience or knowledge at the time. I experienced an alien takeover of earth, I hid out in my friends room for 200,004 years until all the aliens had gone extinct, and then returned home, just to see if it was there. It was, and when I got inside and saw a clock and realized only 5 hours had passed, I realized just how powerful mushrooms are.
One day I will return to that dose in a proper setting.
4..Do your retain a degree of control on this dose?
I have great control up to 4 grams. Beyond that I'm not sure. I certainly had great control on the 5.7 gram dose, except that I completely misinterpreted the events around me.
5..What is your most sought-after effect?
A feeling of absolute bliss and interconnectivity with all things, while living in the most beautiful surroundings any great artist could ever imagine.
6..What is the least desirable effect?
Physical or mental injury.
7..Has this dosage ever failed you?
Mushrooms have never failed me.
8..How often do you use this dose?
1.5-2 grams = 6-10 times per year 3-4 grams = 1-3 times per year +4 grams = once per year
9..How often would you want to use this dose?
Whatever amount I feel is best, is the amount I use...see above answer.
10.What holds you back?
Mushrooms are not appropriate for most social activities (MJ tends to be more appropriate). Not appropriate when there's tests or projects or work in the near future.
