If you are truly ready for your suffering to end, then I would highly recommend the book "A New Earth " by Eckhart Tolle. Saved my life, now I'm the most grateful person on Earth

Checked it out online and my first impression was just another 'New Agey' thing of which there are so many. Like pot some strains work for one but not the other phylophises do too tho are worth looking into. I found a site that has a good synopsis and will give it a read then if intrigued enough will see if I can get it from the library.

Thanx and a Merry Xmas to you and yours!

:peace:

Get 5 1lb bags of sterile rye from shroomsupply (or make your own via roger rabbit rye tek), make a simple still air box and get some spore syringes from r/sporetraders or expensive ones online, wipe everything down with alcohol then knock the bags up in the still air box, wait a couple weeks till they are done then do damion5050s coco coir tek and dump it all into a monotub.
Wait 10 days or so then start fruiting conditions. Enjoy your half p or so of dried shrooms. It's really not that hard especially taking the grain prep out with presterilized grain. Shroomery is a good place to learn but I've been growing them for 15yrs and have it down to lazy science lol

I have felt that the anxiety is much more mindset/setting and dosage based then it is strain-based. I've grown and eaten 10+ strains of cubes over the years. While there has been some differences, its mostly seemed to be potency based, not some repeatable specific high I got from any particular strain. In a given batch of mushrooms, there can be drastic differences in potency even among the same strain.

For depression, I would consider trying micro-dosing. Only eating about .25-.3g. You shouldn't actually trip and should just get a mood enhancement. Some people will eat that a couple times a day as a microdose treatment plan. I've ground mushrooms to a powder and filled capsules so you can take them whenever you need really easily.

Some strains are much more potent like the Penis envy and Albino version. While strains like golden teachers and b+ are very common starter strains. Personally one of my favorites over the years was Koh Samui. They were potent enough and grew really well. There is a strain called blue magnolia that I'm looking forward to trying soon. Its supposed to be potent like the penis envy.

I've got some albino burmas that I"m hoping to eat tonight for the solstice. I tried a gram worth fresh last weekend and they seem like pretty standard cubes, so I'm probably gonna eat a good 3ish grams and have a fun night.

KSSS are my favs too but I like all thai strains. I've been grinding them into powder and melting 50/50 dark and semi sweet chocolate and mixing them into smiley face molds I got on amazon lol. They fit 2g in each perfect which is a good trip for me and I think the chocolate makes it stronger from the alkaloids or whatever.

So what are some good ones that don't induce anxiety? It to a lesser degree anyway, lol. I'm a noob to different cube varieties. I remember years ago it was like a coin flip whether or not I was going to have a good time on shrooms. I'm like @BigHornBuds I like L more myself, but am going to be giving a go a growing some cubes soon myself.

to me, dosing was a major part of the anxiety and making sure you were in a good space/headspace before even starting. I grew my own and they were much milder than any acid or such my friends were in to. Couple caps and a jay was a fun evening around the hot tub.

Very easy to grow and I was always too nervous to eat something I found out in the wild, too much chance of misidentification for my tastes.

I'm hoping to keep all types of grow supplies sourced here in Canada to reduce complications and there seems to be a few that have all the supplies needed other than magic spores which can be got elsewhere.

I may have a contact now for some dried 'shrooms so may just score an oz for a decent trial run then decide whether to jump into growing my own. Trying to learn the ins and outs of stock trading and make some use of the broker account I opened almost a year ago. About as far out of my areas of expertise as I've wandered yet but could be the most rewarding. I hope! :)

I joined up at the Shroomery a couple weeks ago. I pretty much would like to grow the basic psilocybe cubensis like we used to pick in the Fraser Valley back in the day tho I knew of 4 or 5 more varieties that were good for a buzz too. Whichever method is best for species like that is where I'll likely start if and when I do.

Thanx for the tips and a Merry Xmas to you and yours!

You can grow em with just household/grocery store ingredients. To me the hardest part to find was vermiculite. Jar method is pretty easy for new people and it is just an interesting and fun hobby like growing anything else.

That's my thoughts too. Like don't eat 7 grams and expect things to not get intense, lol.

A half gram of the dried and powdered 'shrooms we used to pick would have me talking to god so I won't be starting off eating a quarter oz. lol

I've done 'cid well over 1000 times and a few hundred trips on 'shrooms, peyote buttons and whatever new stuff came down the pipe out in Vancouver back in the day. Was high every day all thru junior high and wasted every weekend. Last time I did acid was the end of my first year at BCIT taking chemistry in June '88.

Hey Thunder, I tried to PM you but I can't get to your profile anymore? Anyway I was wondering what your thoughts were about this. The wife and I took about 3 grams last Saturday and had a great night (good dose and the effects we were hoping for) These were my first grow and I was pleased with the results. Now we would like to trip again on New Years eve which will be only 10 days since our last, so do I need to increase the dosage to have the same effect? Or is 10 days in between plenty of time not to worry about it? In the past we would be lucky to do them a few times a year as they have always been hard to find for us but now that I have them on hand???? How often can we do them without really building a strong tolerance? Thanks and Merry Christmas and Happy holidays to everyone!

A week is usually the minimum I try to wait at this point, 2 weeks is better, 10 days will be fine. If you wanted to eat an extra half gram it wouldn't hurt you ;). Usually unless I know the mushrooms are real strong I eat 3.5g if I wanna "trip". Dosing more then once a week builds tolerance pretty fast. I've experimented with redosing on the same trip and find its best to up the second dose to get much effect.

The first time I bulk grew mushrooms was this month in 2008. I had decided in november I wanted mushrooms for New Years, and was harvesting them about 12/28. I ate 45ishgrams of fresh ones new years eve. Then the next day (about six hours after I came down) some friends showed up and wanted to eat mushrooms. I knew I would need to up my dose pretty good if I wanted to actually trip again. So I ate 7 dried grams of aborts (which are usually pretty potent). Was a life-changing 24 hours to say the least.

Another option which I think doesn't get discussed often enough is eating them fresh! They actually have an extra drug in them when they are wet which they don't when dried. When cubensis mushrooms are wet they contain both psilocybin as well as psilocin. Wet mushrooms definitely have a different trip, and when I have the option it is what I personally choose. It usually takes a little longer for the effects to start, because your body has to digest the wet mushroom more, but it also usually lasts longer(just like weed edibles). If I wanted to eat 3.5 grams of dried mushrooms then I would actually eat 38 grams of wet ones, they are about 90% water. I chop them up and either put them on a cheese burger or swallow them kinda like pills.

Yeah I like when I can do a good therapeutic trip once every couple months or so. That seems to keep me aligned.

Mushies, LSD... Those really change your perspective.

now we're talking yeah you definitely can't take them too often or they won't do anything. spread them out at least a month apart between doses. And I've tried microdosing and in my opinion this shit doesn't work if you don't get the trip so definitely take a sufficient dose
