a lot of people are under the impression that caps are far more potent than stems... therefore, the more regular clients and friends alike usually gobble up all the caps, and the stems are what's left. It is irritating, yes, but the ones with a bag full of caps really aren't getting any better of a deal than you are.

If you are truly fed up with it... grow your own. then you can munch on caps all day long.

I've always heard the potency of caps is greater... I just think they're easier to eat.

I've experimented with this theory... I've tried 3g of nothing but caps, and 2/3 weeks later I tried 3g of nothing but stems.  The trips themselves were like night and day, but the intensity was pretty damn equal.  It is pretty easy to believe that the caps harbor most of the psilocibin, but in all actuality there doesn't seem to be that big of a difference.

Yes it is stupid to take off all the caps, but like I said, some are just simply misinformed.  And like you said, there's no way he needs that many spore prints - I can agree with that.

Can you believe that some folks actually believe that those gold flakes you get in your bag or on your mushrooms means that they are REALLY potent? :lol: its vermiculite - that's another common mistake that many people in my area make.  I'm sure you were already aware of that one though.

I've always heard that the cap has minimally more in it and that it doesnt really matter. Its just weird that people would cut off the caps

I am always a bit cautious when getting shrooms cuz obviously I don't know if someone picked something deadly so when I see the verm I feel good cuz I highly doubt anyone is gonna grow something deadly.

It would make sense that caps are a bit more potent than stems, but I prefer stems because they taste better.

Taste better? or a more appealing texture?

Personally I love the cap and stem equally... I used to gag at just the thought, but I've grown very accustomed to them. Hell, if they sold dried gourmet mushrooms that tasted just like dried psilocybes at the market, I'd buy em up and eat them out of the bag on the way back to my car. I love 'em!

I'm sorry that you don't like the taste and smell... I take it you grind them up and put them in some kind of tasty dish? imo you are missing out on part of the experience. But maybe that's just me, I like to be a caveman.

Some people simply cannot handle the taste and/or smell... I feel extremely fortunate that I love both. Yea I know they smell like "shit", but that smell makes my mouth water. It's not so much that I like the smell as it is that I know what it signifies. But I do LOVE the taste, there's no denying that.

there's no experiential difference. however still, i think you should get an equal amount of caps and stems. i mean it's not like you're asking for half a mushroom.

No they're not, with caps you get a mouth full of spores. Stems got a nice texture too, chewy and stuff.

Indeed,
I hate when and if I eat a big fasty nasty cap how the spores wanna spread around in my mouth while chewing ..it makes for a real disgusting feeling
Then I end up coughing up purple spit and when I vomit its always purple/black and goey like syrup

Thats why I try and go with stems only like wiccan

Hah! I have a friend who thinks caps are 'better'.  I tried explaining there is no different in potency but he wouldn't have it.  But it works out because I dislike caps for the same reasons :smile:  He gets the caps, I eat me thems stems.

I agree with WiccanSeeker about stems tasting better than caps, but i do love eating caps as well.

I think if youre going to be buying your shrooms you should get the same amount of caps as stems, and intact.:dancingshroom:
