The amount to ingest will depend on the type of strain you will be consuming. I would also suggest that you try to stay away from a level 4-5 trip unless you have exp. with other psychedelics. If you find out what type of shrooms you will be eating, then check out the dosage calculator here on the shroomery. It is by no means exact, but it can give you an estimate. In fact, shroom tripping has a lot of variables. Set and setting play huge factors in trip intensity. As for prices, I don't have a clue.

It's diffrent for everyone, i know poeple who hit a level 3 from 2 grams, i on the other hand have to take a full 1/8 and upwards. it's 90% likely that the only strain your dealer will have is cubensis, this is by far the most grown strain. If i were you i would take about half the 1/8th my first trip, because an 1/8 can totally blow some people away and a bad first trip can turn you off to shrooms entirely. I tripped with one of my friends once..it was his first time..and i always had tripped off an 1/8th...so i gave him an 1/8th...big mistake..he was on the floor all night talking about the government and aliens laughing uncontrollably by himself...then at the end he started flipping out.....he won't trip at all now because his first trip was so bad.Anyway have fun and be careful..and remember you can always take more your next time. -Primate ------------------ ~~"Oh, welcome to this world of fools, of pink champagne and swimming pools, where all you have to lose is your virginity.

I would suggest taking half an eighth your first time. That's what I took, and it was my best trip yet. Bet hey, that could be just me.

You said:"I need to know how much to take to get a level 3-5 trip and which kind to buy, and what are the prices generally?" To find the number of shrooms required for a Level X trip, divide your body weight in nanograms by the trip level. Remember to double the dosage if you're eating Semilanceata. What kind to buy? Go for the Amanita Phalloides (also known as Psilocybe Dickwadensis). Prices? Is that in dollars, yen, or pounds and shillings? In England, they're about a guinea a bushel.

you should ask your friends who have tripped before about that sort of thing. potency depends on strain, when they were picked, and what type of evironment theyve been kept in since they were picked. i took a half eighth my first time and it wasnt all that great. the second time i took a full eighth and i truely tripped for the first time. personally i would recommend an eighth. yeah, there is the risk of freaking out your first time, but if you do, you probably would have ended up not liking shrooms eventually. on the other hand, you dont want to have a weak trip your first time, you want it to be memorable. as for how much, that greatly depends on where you live. where im from, they run about $10 an eighth but ive heard of them costing as much as $50 an eighth in other states.

you said:"what species are liberty caps, and are they good?" They're P.semilanceata, not to be confused with P.fimeata, which has a white veil at the margin and grows in horse 5h1t. Are they good? No, they've got a terrible reputation, some of them have even done prison time.

You said:"stop fu*kin with my head!" You want serious? Alright, here ya go. You said: "I need to know how much to take to get a level 3-5 trip" Depends on your body weight, and the type of shroom, and how long they've been dried and how they were dried, and how they've been stored. If 'shrooms have been incorrectly preserved, there is no guarantee that they will contain any active ingredients. It also depends on what kind of mental shape and mood you're in. What you've ben doing recently. What you've had to eat recently. Any other drugs you've taken recently. The only person who can answer all these questions is you. So you need to know that you should be thinking about all of these things before throwing something into your body just because a drug dealer told you it was good shit! "which kind to buy," See answer to above. If you don't know your P.cubensis from your A.phalloides from your P.semilanceata, you're in trouble. If you have no idea what you're after, what it looks like or what it's going to do to you, then you could find yourself buying any old crap, including 'shrooms that can kill you dead. "what are the prices generally?" Anything the local drug dealer thinks he can get away with when he realises exactly how much of a clue you have about the whole thing. Wearing a sign around your neck, saying: "I know nothing. Please rip me off." wouldn't make it any more obvious than it is. Now, shall we carry on with the serious stuff, or shall we just go back to f**king with your head?

well, thanks to you guys and some experienced friends, i now know what i am talking about and how much the general prices of shrooms are. so i now know enough that i will no longer be wearing the sign saying, "I know nothing. Please rip me off," as sasquatch so eloquently put it. thanks for all your help guys, and look for my trip report fairly soon!
