I have only experienced mushrooms once in amsterdam.
Finally, i have been able to obtain these beautiful little fungi at home.
They look entirealy different from the fresh Mexican Cubes which i had in my previous journey.
Please take a look and let me know what you think.
Also, do i just weigh the caps and stems too determine dosage? or do I need to count the "shake as well". This is an "8th". My gf and I plan on splitting the dosage so we can each consume about 1.7 grams.
In Amsterdam I had 15 grams fresh. How does this transfer? Because these might be old, will the content of psilo be less? (because where I live, everyone says an 8th is the proper dosage..but 3.5 grams sounds insane..especially for a second trip.
Thanks.
I appreciate any and all help which this community provides.

Also, when i ate the fresh mushrooms in amsterdam. I was on a totally full stomach. We were eating all day, and we consumed the shrooms with several slices of pizza. The trip was intense. and little to no sickness . Will this vary with the old dried shrooms? Should i fast? am i more likely to get sick?

Yeah those are Psilocybe Cubensis.
Sometimes a small amount of shake wont make a difference, but in your case it will.
Mushrooms are appx 90% water, so 15 fresh grams would roughly be 1.5 grams.
How old are they, how were they stored? Im pretty sure long periods of heat and exposure to oxygen will cause potency loss.
If they're old and wern't dried completely or became damp, mold might have begun to grow, the bad kind. So watch out

How can I identify mold? Basically, my provider tried mushrooms for the first time last week and loved them. He gave me these from the same batch. So naturally im confident. But I always want to take proper precautions.
I respect and appreciate these little guys, so there is no rush.
