Some Questions About Shrooms.

Well, last night I did shrooms for the second time. The first time, I ate 1 gram of dried cubes and got very little from them. Just slight giddyness and a slight shift in perspective. Last night I made tea from two grams of an unknown variety of shrooms. It took a while to kick in, but I was noticibly high when I laid down in bed with the lights off. There were some visuals, similar to, but not quite like the closed eye visuals I typically get from a good cannabis high. All in all, it was rather anticlimactic. It wasn't quite what I expected from shrooms, which I have heard so many good things about. In all honesty, I found it rather boring.
Does anyone have an idea as to why my experience was so lacklustre? Should I up the dosage for the next time? I'm a large guy, 6'2

i can tell you that making tea from 2 grams is nowhere near enough for me.
typically when we made tea, it would be with 2-3 pounds of fresh shrooms per gallon.
If the caps are dry already anyways, I would suggest eating them dry, or grinding them up and drinking them down. Everyone is different, but I usually aim for around 5g (dry) per dose. I'm about the same size/height as you.

I agree, eat an 1/8th, and you'll be amazed. Good luck my friend.

Well, 1 G isn't enough for any of the fun stuff. In fact, it's not enough for any fun stuff, maybe feeling kind of giddy. Generally, you need about 2 or 2.5 Gs at the least to hallucinate at all.

I don't know If I have a low tolerance to shrooms, or the ones I've had are just potent, but 2grams of mush in tea will get me pretty high... An eighth and I can see things like rivers flowing in wood/marble etc...

Sorry but Im sure that many people here have felt effects from low doses like 1gram and had wonderful experiences. Just ask Wiccan Seeker who is an advocate of low doses, as am I. In regards to your last comment, its not really all about hallucinating anyhow, there is much more to it than that.

Some people can get great trips off of only 1g, but some also have a natural tolerance and get nothing from 1g. I say go for an 1/8th. You wont be dissapointed, and later on you can start to find your threshold dose. Mine is around .7 -1g. But my favorite dose is 3.5g (1/8th).

Ok this is how it is! It's always smart to start with very low doses when starting with a new drug and work your way upwards. THERE'S NO RIGHT OR WRONG UNIVERSAL DOSE, IT'S DIFFERENT FOR EVERYBODY. Some people think that 3.5g is a normal dose, others say 5g. Personally I'm 6'2" and for me a half 1/8 (ie 1.75g) in a well made cubensis tea is fairly strong for me.
So keep in mind that dosage is something you just gotta work out for yourself, starting low and upping dose 500mg - 1g every dose.
As for mushrooms seeming boring, if you find mushrooms boring then they are simply not working for you (for some reason or other whether that be low dosage, bad batch, degraded psilocin/psilocybian). If you get a proper hit there is nothing boring about psilocin.

I agree with you on your dosage opinions...
But I know several people that think shrooms are boring- I know what they mean in some ways. Sometimes during a trip, don't you ever find yourself asking 'what am I supposed to be doing?'
