Dried is the correct answer. I will never try them fresh. Yuck! Grind 'em and throw 'em in some OJ, if you ask me.

Yes, fresh are more potent. Though potency lost during drying depends on the type of shroom. With our local Ps. Subaeruginosa here in New Zealand, dried shrooms are more or less the same strenght as fresh, whereas with cubes, which have a different chemical composition, quite a lot of potency be lost during drying.

If dried correctly, there's no noticeable difference in potency. They taste better fresh though, but you need to chew and swallow a lot more bulk The fresh ones seem to melt into nothing in your mouth and don't taste unpleasant, but for someone like me who likes to do 5 grams dried MINIMUM for a nice level 4 trip, I can't see the point in eating 50 grams of fresh ones.

Bottom line, no difference in potency if you dry 'em fast and thouroughly.

The correlation between shrooms you've bought and shrooms you've grown is misguided ;p Just because you've eaten shitty dried shrooms, and then ate good fresh shrooms does not mean that dry shrooms are really any worse. 

THEORETICALLY, fresh shrooms are more potent.  This is due to the damaging property of O2, heat, movement etc. that makes the very fragile mind-altering compounds of the mushroom deteriorate.  What does it take to dry shrooms? Heat, O2, Movement. (some form of some of those, anyway) Older shrooms will theoretically contain less psilocin (again, deterioration) but environmental conditions seem to be more a factor than mere age. Colder, non-agitated, and as little o2 as possible is best.

AFOAF prefers dried shrooms, because he can eat them when he wants.  He has yet to feel a difference in the affects of dried vs. wet.  He's had weak trips on FRESHLY picked shrooms (35g fresh) and then extremely potent trips from dried shrooms OF THE SAME FLUSH (3.5g dried). He's also had/seen the opposite. 

You will be hard pressed to find any difference in the two. If we could get gas chromatography / chem. analysis on thousands of samples, we may be able to draw legitimate conclusions.  But it is still more of a "i guess its stronger/weaker?" game.

That's funny! I was reading it and was thinking like WTF, I've seen this guy on here forever, why the hell is he asking such noob questions, then I looked at how old the thread is LOL.

So, what conclusion have you come to on the issue?

I much prefer fresh. Either make an OJ smoothie, or just much them. Or sometimes make a smoothie, then end up munching a bunch more later.

I don't see why people think fresh ones taste so bad. I think they just taste like mushrooms. I think they taste like ass dried. The part I REALLY HATE is when they get all stuck in my molars and shit, then come dislodged later. Gross!
