I once ate 14 grams dry once. I can't begin to describe how powerful my trip was. I had total ego death, saw my soul, the universe, time as it flows, everything. I gained an infinitely valuable mass of information from the trip.
I actually cried for a day or so when I finally came to...I was over-run with joy, love, knowledge, and a emotion I cannot even begin to describe.
It is the most influential experience I've ever had in my life...

I am not an experienced greatly on this either, yet I have done shrooms about 6 times. They are without a question the most humbling, best drug I have ever used. I haven't gone way out into distorted time and dreams coming true yet but that's most likely because of the environment I have always taken them in is not ideal for that. I would say with confidence that they will take you as far as you and your surroundings will let them take you. I definitely don't think it's silly for you to wait until you have your own. I think that would make the trip even that much better. Good luck on your grow and I hope you have an amazing trip!!

one of the reasons i cut down on smoking cigarettes and weed is because of a shroom trip. i realized how bad they were for me and cut down after that.
actually, if i dont move in the right direction in my life, ill have trips where i just feel like shit because of where im going. but as long as im doing what i feel im suppose to be doing, my trips are great and i just think about how the universe could have been created.
not sure if that is what you asking for.

Your question doesn't have a definitive answer, quite honestly. To say how deep a mushroom trip reaches is not something a single person can articulate properly. Just read about some of the great psychedelic explorers and read from those experienced on here, and you will be rewarded with a solid preparation that comes with research. But that said, no preparation for a shroom trip can be so solid that it defies the ability of the psilocybin to break your *ENTIRE* conception of reality into forgotten shards. The concept of identity, the sense of proprioception (or realized ownership of your body), and even the constant things such as time and matter become altered or discarded altogether in the subjective sense.
Imagine yourself as a bodyless soul, free of all human characteristics, except the ability to exist and be aware. And imagine that you, as that soul, are flowing through an intergalactic network of energies and souls, and all you know at that point is this spiritual ecstasy, no wordly thoughts are tied to your stern to keep you docked in wordly reality. No thoughts like "Oh darn, I hope this doesn't end soon!" because words are part of the reality that has been sidelined.
I don't know how much deeper theoretically a substance could go than that. Of course the trip can turn the other direction for some people and those spiritual intensities are turned negative, or mixed.

It can take you deep down into the very core of everything you are, everything you will be, and everything you always have been. It will take you back, back to the wisdom you had as a child, the wisdom you will have as an old man, and the the stupidity of it all as well. You will, in a sense, know. And the hardest part is coming back and trying to communicate it, or even figuring out why you should communicate it. It's quite the experience, my friend. It is worth it to attempt to talk to people that have been through it, but you still can't. I am probably describing the complete shattering of ego.

start with a light dose, so you get the idea then work your way up. make sure you're in a good place physically (safe place with no surprises) and mentally (don't have any pressing issues, you probably wont be able to keep them out of your trip.). it's always good to trip after a success (growing your own shrooms, might work)
in my experience people are always surprised by the effects of mushrooms, their first time. no matter how many stories they've heard.
it's because the feeling can't be explained, I think. good luck

For me, taking higher doses of shrooms, does not equal a deeper trip.
I've experienced some of things mentioned here off less than 3 grams. I experienced time almost at a standstill. I forgot the concept of relative direction too. Like, I was up in the mountains, and it started to rain, and a drop fell on my head, and I really questioned whether the drop feel down or flew up. lol.
And one of the weirdest things was when I didn't know who I was. Like, I was thinking about people I knew, like my g/f, my friends, myself, and I didn't really know which one was me. I felt like I was kind of everybody. I kind of thought that all the experiences and interactions I have with everybody, could all just be memories in my mind, my interface with the world. Or that my mind was not an interface to the world, and really there was no input from the world. And the individuals I thought I knew, could just be one collective consciousness partitioned, using bodies as individual containers.
Is that sort of what ego death is?
I've also experienced where I felt like I woke up into reality or a different world, and everything before the trip was just a dream. When I say everything before the trip, I mean like the past week, past months, past years. It takes about a day or so for everything to normal out again. This is more like life becoming a dream.
I think I still have a lot more space to explore with shrooms. Instead of focusing on human consciousness and reality, I'd like to move in the direction of life, like nature. I think there are many paths to explore.
Reality broken into forgot shards, like matchbook said... sounds pretty deep to me. But I guess experiencing a different reality that seems just as real as this one, could even be deeper. DMT?
Anyway, back to what I was saying about dosage. Higher dosages tend to just make me erratic. I start to get stuck in loops like wanting to sit down, then stand up, then sit down. Or I need to pee, I don't need to pee, I need to pee. Yeah... anyone have thoughts on this?

Oh, and I get the whole idea with you wanting to experience what you grow. Kind of like me with my cactus right now. I could just go buy and consume a cactus right now, but instead I'm waiting for my cactus to grow to a certain point. So... really, it's all up to the cactus as to when I'll have my first cactus trip. :-)

No, that's just forgetting shit. Ego Death is ceasing to have a self point of reference. Ceasing to exist.
Ego death is probably the deepest you'll go. You're not even an entity anymore. Total separation from mind and body. Your sole function is to experience.

you will start to feel like something is wrong, tension, something in your head yelling at you. some people think they are dying,
you will go to the depth of your every fear and insecurity. your body will go limp and flow instead of move. music might even shake your spine or make tears come to your eyes. you will look at a cloud and realize that a starry night is beautiful indeed. then a ker plunk might happen.

shrooms are such a beautiful experience that you will not be able to describe it accurately for our language does not encompass things so simple as what mushrooms will show you. if you dose high enough you will be separated from your body. and have no restrictions. this realm is somewhat like a dream state where anything is possible. i ran through my childhood and spoke with mother. came out of dream stae got up and smoked a spliff.
shrooms are the best
grow some and eat them.

years ago on some acid from a deadhead (similar affects are possible with shrooms) I walked out of a bathroom at a friends frat. outside of the door was a large circle painted on the wall. I got stuck staring at it, like I fell into it. then as though someone had flipped a switch I forgot who I was, where I was, and what I was doing.
I have no idea how long I stood there, but eventually I decided I needed to look around, trying to figure out what was going on. I wandered into someone's room where several people were smoking a bong (I didn't know any of them). I guess I must have really looked messed up, because they broke out in furious laughter, I think they tried to talk to me, but I don't think I said anything. after a moment I drifted away from that room and somehow found my friends and the place I had left to use the bathroom. not knowing who you are is an odd feeling that causes some people to really freak and there's really no way to prepare yourself for that. that kind of experience is really thought provoking after the fact though.

All the way to infinity and back. 
I think the real question here is, how far are you willing to let mushrooms take you? Depending on the circumstances of your trip, you can go much 'further' on a smaller dose than you could on a stronger one in a different situation. This is especially true regarding the set and setting of your experience.

mushroom is like a technology that will take you deeper into the realm of mind and space dimension.capable of trancending time and conciousness similar to experience of all masters of awareness,it is a gateway breaking through the ego boundary. the filter is bypass temporarily.if you know how to navigate it will be fun and full of surprise amazing drug to explore.i say mushroom is a great vehicle where all posibilities are encountered, there are positive and negative effect depends on the setting, the mind must make necessary preparation.Good luck.

Mushrooms can, and usually will, push you to the very edges of your conception of reality. You can have a laugh and a giggle, but there is also a very extremely EXTREMELY powerful mind expanding part to mushrooms.
Start low, and have a few trips to get used to the visual/auditory/mind effects of mushrooms.
And once you can feel your way around a mushroom trip with all senses tied behind your back, go for a large dose.
But yeah, its fucking beautiful.

I think how much you dose strongly effects the feeling of the drug. Kind of like taking 1 shot compared to 5 shots...
How far mushrooms will take you? Well quite frankly they will take you however far you would ever wish to go. They will make you realize the beauty of life and realize what it is like to be real. They will push you over the edge of reality and like others have said, into a dreamworld where nothing seems to be real. And if you are really lucky, complete ego death. A place where you don't even have a chance to be scared, a place like this can only be described one way with language,?

It's funny, because every time I've gone on a trip, I always felt like that would be the way I'd feel when I'm in my 30's or 40's. It was way more prominent in my earlier days than it is now, but it's still an interesting feeling.

7 grams is like an entirely new drug. Its very strange. You will lose the concepts of certain things, its hard to explain. The Colour orange was very new to me and this was the first different effect I noticed while coming up. The mindfuck is the difficult part of the trip. Other high doses include extreme delerium. I thought I shit all over a pool and toilet papered it as vandalism. I saw the cops outside waiting for me and went to go talk to them. None of that happened.. it was like a dream. all in my head. Its interesting to say the least

Taking shrooms is an amazing experience that words can never describe.One time while walking down an empty street I felt as if I was looking down at myself from the sky watching my life go by, It seemed as if I saw old memories from my past moving in the opposite direction from which i was walking.And the road that I was on was the path I was taking in my life. This was deffinately one of my top spiritual/touching experiences of my life.
