Freshies and Lemon Juice?
    #5518554 - 04/15/06 10:43 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I cant find a good post where people discuss fresh mushies and lemon juice. It always goes off topic. But anyway, i was getting 10 grams of fresh Puerto Ricans and cambodian mixture and was wondering if soaking in lemon juice for a little bit would be good. Would it help at all? I am even willing to soak it in it finely chopped for hours, has any one acually tried it this long? Thanks everyone

Well, if the basic thought is that the lemon juice extracts the psilocybe or whatever from the shroom, it being wet or dry shoudln't matter. Just maybe put it in the lemon juice for a longer time? Maybe an hour or so to be sure?

What are you trying to accomplish with the lemon juice? Are you going to just soak the shrooms in juice then drink the juice only, or the shrooms only, or ingest them both?

IMO, lemon juice making the trip stronger is mearly a myth. If you really think it helps, I suggest just blending the shrooms up with some OJ. It will taste better and you'll still get the whole citric acid/vitamin C thing.

It should work with both wet and dry shrooms. I would think you would need a longer soak with wet than dry shrooms tho. Since you can't powder wet shrooms, the drink might be a bit 'stringy' if you consume your mushroom material with the liquid. Orange juice is nowhere near as acidic as lemon juice, thats why lemon works so well:)

While I am still skeptical on the '2x the potency', soaking in lemon juice does affect the trip, and does help. The 'good stuff' is more readily available for your system to digest, so your body asorbs more/faster - which in turn, can lead to a more intense peak, as you have more comming into your system at once.

It also reduces stomach upset/neasuea that can come with mushrooms, and all around - provided me with one of the best mushroom highs that I have had in a long time.

While I am still a skeptic on the 'make it 2x more potent!' - the lemon method certianly does have an impact on the trip and does make it better IMO, and its more than just a placebo/myth.

*note: I filtered out all of the solid material and drank only the juice.

It will definitely work, maybe not that good as with dry ones though.
Look, fresh shrooms are about 90% water, so the total acidity will be somewhat weaker than in case of dry mushrooms.
Still, if you blend 'em in the mixer and let soak well, I guess they'll work just fine. Again, try freezing, it may even work better with the fresh ones since more ice will form inside and cells might break quite well.
In this case though filtering will be a tougher job I guess. After defrosting they will probably turn into a yacky jelly, still a good filter will handle it fine.

What works with dry will work with the wet but not necessarily in the same way(wet mushrooms take up more space in the stomach for the most part).
Lemon juice is acidic, it helps to break down the shrooms and will help your gut absorb the nutrients. I have not tried the lemon juice method(no real need for it in my opinion) but its pretty obvious why it works so well for some people.

Basically your just eating shrooms either way
