True or not?
    #8070279 - 02/25/08 09:25 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

I saw this passage....

http://www.fungifun.org/fanaticus/birthday.htm

"The secret to potent mushrooms is in their age when picked. It has been scientifically proven that the small immature specimens are significantly more potent than the larger mature specimens. Over half of the small primordia that first form will abort (cease growing, convolute and deform). Pick these before their heads turn black. A pointed knife blade works well for removing these high potency primodia. These are among the most potent. The abortive mushrooms are also high potency. Harvest them when they are young and before their heads turn black. When the fruitbodies are normal, harvest them before the veil under the cap breaks. The mushrooms will be smaller and their heads will be roundish. It is important to note that the mushroom cakes pictured in this book are all mostly well matured. While these mature specimens are beautiful and perfect, they are not as potent as the diminutive specimens. The mature specimens are good for spore collecting and showcasing but are weak in psychedelic potency."

Alright, I get the aborts will be potent, but the part about before the veil breaks I'm questioning... Is this just a way for them to keep business up by having you buy their spores every time, or is it true that before the veil breaks is the best time, aka more potent, to pick?

Smaller, more immature mushrooms do in
fact have a higher potency. It is not
a scheme. Generally the same thing goes
for cannabis plants - the smaller leaves
will contain a much greater level of
cannabinoids.

That's not to say that eating one huge
shroom won't cause your brain to spill
out, but eating a smaller amount of little
shrooms is much better on the 'ol taste
buds.

http://www.shroomery.org/8756/Are-aborts-more-potent-than-fully-grown-mushrooms

There is a reason mushrooms can increase their size ten-fold from pins to mature fruits in such a short amount of time. The cells are like balloons, they fill with water rapidly during maturation. So yes, immature/aborted mushrooms will generally have a higher alkaloid content per wet weight then the same mushroom if given a chance to grow to maturity. I believe (am not sure) that the mushroom continues to produce alkaloids during maturation. So to get the most alkaloids one should let the mushroom grow until the veil tears. If I'm wrong, please correct me!

click

Here's an example. Notice how all
of the smaller leaves are covered
in trichomes? The plant uses these
as protection from moisture loss on
its more delicate parts.
