caps vs stems
    #6692171 - 03/20/07 04:52 PM (17 years, 13 days ago)

hiya.. couldnt really think of what section to put this under so i decided for the pub :laugh: i know the caps are more potent than the stems but do the stems contain an amount of psilo thats worth the time? just wondering .. thanks for any input :smile:


--------------------
i know the pieces fit, cuz i watched them fall away. mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing. pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion, disenigrating as it goes, testing our communication. the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us, so, we cannot seem to reach an end, crippling our communication.
the poetry that comes from the squaring off between, and the circling is worth it, finding beauty in the dissonance.

They both contain about the same amount, I've noticed.

The web site that gave you the strength of the cap should have also give you the strength of the stem. I dont have the link, someone will. I think there are questions around the studies validity though as it cant really be confirmed given the illegality of shrooms.

edit- yes they are very similar. Personally I feel no difference.

i like caps better, simply because dry stems can be really chewwy and stringy.

if the steams arent though, i'd go with stems. i like the bruising and the look and feel of them going down when they're spungy. caps get really crunchy.

i've noticed that they are practically the same

when i ate 5.0gs of caps only, it hit me fast and it hit me hard

i think its because that caps get chewed easily as they just crumble so they get digested faster

i dunno but most of the time i only eat the caps and a like half the stem

Last couple posts make the most sense. Eat the whole mushroom, no reason not to.

Caps and stems are made up of the same thing, Mycelium.

ive tried 3g of only caps and 3g of only stems from the exact same batch, and had very similar experiences, i believe the content of both would be the same...

peace

the amount of psilocybin is the same but they do digest differently

eating a bunch of stems is diff than a handful of caps :mushroom2:

Um, how the hell do you figure that? If you chew the things up your stomach can't discern between mashed up caps and mashed up stems.

Its not "caps vs stems".

Its "Caps = Stems".

There's no discernable difference in my experience. Eat the stems.

if i eat 4gs of stems it is going to take longer to kick in than 4gs of caps

the caps are so dry and they turn to dust when i chew them and down with water
that shit hits me HARD

stems are different IME they are a little heartier, you (well i can atleast) feel them digesting

*oh and by longer i mean like 15-20 min maybe half hour :mushroom2:

I still don't see the logic in that. 4g of bone-dry stems will be the same as 4g of bone-dry caps.
