Shrooming: dose ?

Me and 3 of my close friends are going to go shrooming for the first time on Halloween. We will have one person that is sober. I got the shrooms for everyone. I was planning on everyone doing 1g crushed in a shot of lemon juice because I've heard lemon juice makes it a shorter trip(4 hours), but 2-3X as potent. Is this true and what would you recomend? Thanks for the help.

lemon juice does seem to decrease the duration and increase the come up and intensity. No one can say for certain what kind of trip you will have on 1g. But it is a safe starting point I can say. I have had excellent 'effects' from 1g doses, but not really a trip.

I bought 3/8 ounce to keep for a while. It cost me 90 which is a big part of my paycheck so i can't really be tripping off an 1/8 everytime. Should we initially take 1g and give the sober guy some to hold onto so if we aren't feeling it to much after about an hour we can take more? SHould we just star with 1.5g. The only thing is none of us have ever used halucagens (except salvia) so we don't really know what to expect. Thanks.

1 gram, lemon juice or no will not give you much.2.5-3 is a pretty good starting dose if you want to "see" what mushrooms are all about

Get them to chip in at least a tiny bit, and dose higher.

ya their paying me for their share. I think we'll do 1.25g powdered mixed in lemon juice for 10 min. Would this be good for level 3?

Not for a level 3. Probably a level 1.

so i guess the lemon juice thing isn't as good as some people say? I take 2-2.5 if lemon juice is a waste.

From what I've heard friends say, 1.5 grams could do fine for you. Something between 1.5 and 1.75 sent a close friend of mine into another universe once (he hadn't taken shrooms or any other serotonergics in a long, long time).
BTW, the lemon juice probably works because the citric acid in it causes one's stomach to absorb things more rapidly, thereby causing one to "digest" the shrooms faster and feel it all much more quickly and more powerfully.

Ya, lemon juice makes it hit a little bit harder but nothing like 2x harder. When coupled with powdered mushrooms there is no way it wont hit harder. Powdered mushrooms just absorb faster. No reason to explain how that works. For a variety of reasons this may cause the trips duration to be shortened a bit.
1.25 grams is not "threshold" as some total fucking dipshit mentioned before. My only problem with what that doink said is the fact that for some people 1.25 grams is far beyond threshold. So throw that "fact" out the window.
You could just start with 1.5 grams. Some people in your group will be very satisfied for their first time for whatever reason. Someone or all the people may wish they had more.
By the way.......... The level system is retarded and is almost useless to a first time user. There is no telling how far 1.5 grams can take you your first time. And thats not the only reason why I think the "level" per dose system bullshit.
Actually I think the level system is fucking stupid without considering dose in relation to level. If you think there are only 5 stages, or that 1 short paragraph worth of explanation of each stage is even worth reading I think you should find a new hobby.
Take a somewhat low dose your first time, and learn from it. That would be my advise.
This level sytem is best forgotten about. Thats my opinion anyways. There are people who dont get visuals from 3.5 grams I guess. Thats pretty weird. I get visuals from .25 grams or even way less although id more readily call them faint patterns and just general visual disturbances(although they are clear and awsome visuals if "treated right"). You will likely learn what amount you want to take next time.
make your own level system. This stupid level system is easily misinterpreted, and it has that effect on many people. Some people think, "well it all depends on my dose, and I want the level where I forget how to tie my shoes!"
Its just so much deeper than a level system, thus leaving the all too common level system to be a simple reflection of those who take these chemicals. Follow as you wish.
These psychedelics are just not that simple. So make a level system or one that tells you that you have "broke through", not someone elses system that may not work for you. It just seems plain old stupid to me. Thats how some users roll though. I already dont like the level system for a few reasons, but the main reason is because of the way that people apply those states of mind to the dose taken, as if it was written in stone.

lemon juice dosent hurt. at the very leased it helps you break down the mushroom and get to the juices inside.
dont be conserened with a trip rating 2, 3, 5 its all bullshit
your trip is going t be a completly unique expereince in the history of humanity. realise that and strive forward. god speed

I honestly have had very good experiences with just one gram. Hey, if it's going to be your first time, it's best to always start small anyways. It's not like you won't feel anything. You'll definitely feel it, it just won't be as intense or mind-bending as an average shroom trip. But there's no reason to just jump right into that. You want to know how you react to shrooms, first. Get your feet wet before diving right in.

Take 1.75 grams each. This will give you each enough to trip two times. If the mushrooms you have are are fresh and good, 1.75 will give you a good trip. Start small as I have had a level 3 trip off 1.7 grams dried of very fresh stropharia cubenesis.
Then again if your mushrooms are very blue and damaged I may suggest eating 2.5 grams each. That would leave you with 3 grams for you to have another trip.
Don't drive, Keep the Party Small, Not Many People Who Aren't Tripping(1 trip-sitter should be a requirement though), Make Sure You Have 8+ Hours of Free Time, Glowsticks. These are the rules I live by when I trip.
