Effects from taking capsules......

Me and 2 of my friends dosed up on 3 capsules (350mg approx each) of Subaeruginosa. It had no effect with one mate, and me and the other took around 1 hour and 15mins to come up! Is this slow comeup usually expected? They were all the same batch, also for interest sake, another mate took 1gram dried of ungrounded mushrooms from the same batch. He felt the effects within 20mins, which is also typical every time I've taken them whole. I have felt 25grams wet within 10mins!
My capsule dose was supported with the claimed MAOI St Johns Wort Tea (1700mg) which had little or no effect, I even believed it may have reduced the effect if anything.
I came up with the theory that the capsules may be sinking to the bottom of the stomach, and being pulled through to the small intestine which also may slow the realize once the capsules dissolve.
What are your opinions?
cheers

The hour+ long come up I would have to directly attribute to the capsule. The capsule itself can take a long time to digest, THEN the shrooms can begin to digest.
Your friend who felt them in 20 minutes did not take them in a capsule, right?

Capsules delay the onset - variably, because of the breakdown of the capsule itself.... The tighter you pack them, it **seems** the longer they take to take effect....
I am thinking (and this is just a theory*) that if you downed some mushy capsules with a glass of water and waited 20 mins, then went to a hardware store and jumped onto the paint-can shaker machine for a few minutes - THAT should make the effects come on faster....
