Newbie just picked up

So I just picked up a quarter but have never tried mushrooms. I will be trying them sometime soon, maybe tomorrow night and I'm pretty excited. I smoke weed fairly often, about once a week, and I love getting philisophical with others so I'm curious and excited to see what mush is like. I've lurked around on the forums every so often and don't know too much about mushrooms but I'm not completely lost.
I thought it might be a good idea to ask some questions and these are some I'd like to know...
I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to drink orange juice or something with a similiar acidity level for my first trip, like maybe a glass of orange juice and 2 grams? Would that sound like an appropriate dose for an almost 19 year old weighing about 170, lol I'm really not sure if that matters whatsoever, but meh.
Also do you think it would a good idea to pop them around 7 or 8pm so I might start feeling it just as it starts getting dark, I'm not sure if it would be a better experience to pop them when it gets dark and then start peaking around midnight or so, or if it would be cool to actually watch the daylight fade as I'm tripping.
Also, an experienced friend tells me it would be a better experience if the people I were with for my trip would be popping them as well because he claims it will kind of take away from the experience if I'm the only one tripping.
Thanks in advance. Sorry if this may be in the wrong forum, but it seems to fit.

1. you probably should just start out with 2 to 2.5g of shrooms. just chew them up and swallow them with water.
2. 7 or 8pm is a good time to eat them you will start to peak after two hours. I usually get more visuals in the dark and everything looks neater in the dark. 3. being with sober while tripping will get you paranoid and could ruin your trip. Sober people tend to laugh at you and fuck with you. If you are going to trip with people make sure they are good friends that wont laugh at you if you do something stupid

Your dosage sounds about right, I went 1.5 my first time and could have handled a little more.
Some advice : The outside will be incredible, perhaps spend your time coming up going for a walk.
On how to take them, if you're really not interested in the taste, dump them on a spoonful of honey. Note: This makes it hard to chew them, meaning they'll kick in slower.

Your curiosity is a good thing, but don't go into it expecting it to be anything like weed (is once a week really considered often? everyone I know smokes several times a day)

I don't know if it affects the intensity like lemon juice does, but I always take my mushies with OJ or grapefruit juice. 2 grams sounds like a reasonable first dose.

Personally, I'd recommend dosing a little earlier, I love being outside and starting to trip while it's light out, then watch it progress from twilight to nighttime.

Your friend knows what he's talking about!!! I never ever ever under any circumstances recommend tripping with sober people. Ever.

Take 3 grams, or at least 2.5, for you're first trip; trust me, you'll be glad that you did.

listen to me bro take two grams with a glass of orange juice at around 730-800 so u can see out side in the light a ittle bit while coming up you must go outside, like 3piece suit said, it will be absolutely incredible and it will seem like a wonder land, plants will become alive, youll be able to hear anyhting and everything making noise etc. you have to listen to some music, try to pick one of your favorite cds and begin listening to it a solid hour into your trip, it will sound completely different and youll repeat this in your mind "man i looove music" it will be great turn on some cartoons for at least 10 minutes, u will fucking laugh your ass off...i swear cartoons are like made to fuck with you when your on shrooms basically you will love it man. it will be one of the best experiences you will ever have in life and you will never forget it
some advice: try to trip with a friend or two, but ONLY if they are tripping too, if they cant trip with you u should be fine by yourself, just rememeber to let things flow, RELAX RELAX RELAX, remeber everything is in your head and it will be over in a few hours write a lil note to yourself saying your tripping and ull eventually be fine basically man, just kick back, RELAX, and let the mushies do their thing

Also heres some pics of the stash Since this is my first time dealing with shrooms I really have no clue what the count is supposed to look like or if the mush is good or bad.
Oh and Entropymancer I meant fairly often as in on a regular basis, but not all the time, its more like I'll pick up a quarter, smoke for a week once or twice a day and then go a week without it. I don't have a regular schedule, but anyways, let me know if this looks like a quarter and if the shrooms don't look bogus or anything, thanks again.




Good night

Yeah dude dont chill inside your house the whole trip I would Highly recommend that you chill outside most of the trip and listen to some tunes, it makes you love music so much more and unless you have a very good friend that you know will be Cool and dosent wanna try and mess with you and stuff I would say invite him over and have him smoke a few bowls so he wont be sober but could watch over you and make sure you dont do nothing stupid 
I wish I had those 2 grams right now lol i gotta pick me up some.

Take them at about 4:30 am, go outside wander around, enjoy the empty streets, then whatch the sun go up while peaking! Whatching the sun go up makes everything 3d-ish and since everyone is still sleeping you can just smoke a joint right there on the street!

Hello again, so I will be doing them tonight with a very good friend and I'm very exited. I've got a couple more questions just because I'm one to make sure of every little detail.
Should I just be eating them as I would eat a normal mushrooms? I can imagine they'll be a fair bit chewier than a normal mushroom but I'm not sure if I should eat it like normal food or I should pay more chewing to it to get more of an effect or something. Will it be alright if I throw them on a pizza or will that mean I might now chew them well enough before I swallow them? Could I just put them on a food and make sure I chew the mixture thoroughly before swallowing?
Also what can I do about the nausea? Something like gravol will do the trick or what?
Thanks again, can't wait to post the report:)

Chew them really well...it helps to get the most out of them...
smaller particles = more surface area = greater absorption.
You could also grind them up and mix them with damn near anything.
Don't neat them up too much...though. In other words don't cook with them, apply your dose to the food after cooking.
Smoke a bit of weed for nausea...just a hit or so on the come up. it's really not that bad.

Focus on chewing them as much as possible, and as for gravol, I've confirmed that they both help and have no negative effects on the trip. 
Enjoy!

Wow, it was like nothing I've ever experienced and I can't wait to do it again when I'm feeling a bit better mentally and phsyically... I had a sore throat, wasn't feeling great, wasn't feeling great mentally either and it is still a very memorable event. Some things positive some a bit negative, but no regrets whatsoever.
