My opinion about mushrooms vs LSD is a bit different. Even though I have had two bad experiences with LSD - one on the far left hand side of horrendous, I would still say that all other things being equal, Mushrooms are far more potent in the physical sense than LSD. LSD, even in a bad setting is a smooth ride, imagine a big cushy cadillac where mushrooms are a tough high standing 4 x 4, each bump in the road is magnified and the seats are hard and unforgiving. I can always be sure that I am on the manic side, the wild and unpredictable side when I take sizeable doses of Mushrooms - I consider anything over an eighth to be heroic and have never taken much more than a quarter over the course of a day. To tell someone that if they have taken LSD, they will be fully ready to take mushrooms is a bit disingenuous. Mushrooms are their own beast. Mushrooms are alive, they are a presence that you place into your mind, they can be companion or nemisis but they have their own conciousness where LSD is simply a powerful drug.

I have found that a truely heroic dose of LSD is still not as intimidating as a heroic dose of mushrooms. I respect both drugs but I have reverence for for mushrooms that borders on fear, always. I treat it as I would undilute acid or caustic solutions. Mushrooms are the mirror and you tread lightly when it is possible that mirror could be a reflection of yourself at any time for any reason. And... no one is immune to the effects of that mirror on the soul.

why are shrooms like that soo weird but as always ur spot on and I know it for sure!! and why isimt stuff like this documented somewhere like things that are a gsruntee

Do you still eat shrooms Canndo?


Oh, and; can a experienced mushroom grower make a couple bucks selling shrooms? Not that anyone on RIU would sell shrooms, just wondering if you knew a guy that knows a guy that got rich selling mushrooms?
I still take them. I take them before I make life changing decisions, I take them for an exploration with a friend, I take them to highten my experiences of musiums or a trip into nature, most doses are moderated, not the crazy doses of my past. so far a selling them, every grower I know eventually gets the message from the mushrooms themselves that they are not to be sold. Some are told that barter is ok, some are told that recovering expenses is ok but most are instructed that an exchange of money for mushrooms in a concerted and continual way will spell disaster for those growers who still insist on taking them. I am one. In the old days I sold them but I was, through various means, dictated to, I can recieve money for expenses but for the most part if I am ever to have another partake, it must be for free. If I want to contnue to inhabit the mushroom's world I'd best pay attention to it's edicts. I know of no one who got rich selling mushrooms - if for no other reason than the market for them is very strange and limited.

When I grew them, I used to take 1/8 or even 4gr at once. Depends on what kind this Columbian is. When taking Pan shrooms, 1-1.5gr is more than enough for a good 6-8hr trip. Cubes are much weaker. again Shrooms r not much as strong as acid.
Depends upon what you mean by strong, if you mean strong as in milligrams vs micrograms, certainly you are correct. If you mean the influence the drug has over you when you take standard doses, then I will differ with you. I would far rather take a huge dose of LSD than an equally huge dose of mushrooms.

Put it this way - what is stronger? a given amount of hash oil or a given amount of heroin? I would argue that the hash oil is more profoundly affecting of one's psyche than the heroin.

but ymmv.

Even with an 1/8 or more at once I couldn't OD. What was funny to me is that they say, you dont build tollerance against shrooms and it's outta ur body in a few days, I found out otherwise, when I took them more often, it took me much much more to have good visuals and a lengthier trip time.

I think this was my B+ grow View attachment 2822331 I miss those cakes
Depends on one's defintition of "od" though. If one figures that an "od" is ridding the fear and loathing train for 7 hours vs anything but dying, then one can easily od on mushrooms. Of course, no one has ever died from eating too many mushrooms, nor from eating to much LSD - it that is what an od is, then it makes no difference. If "od" means having taken more than one can comfortably handle, then I figure that there are more Mushroom "od"s than LSD "od"s.

Mushrooms have a capricious streak, they tend to play with you in a way that no other hallucinogen will. They play in the big leagues and can easily simply show yourself in any light they choose.


Mescaline seems to love you and let you see yourself in a good light, an illumination of all you CAN be. Mushrooms will most often show you what you are, in the worst pissible light. LSD has no such prediliction. If you go through hell for whatever reason, it isn't LSD's doing but your own. I know a number of people who (wrongly) believe that they have "mastered" LSD, they take a large dose of mushrooms and are invariably humbled.

Mushrooms have helped me make many life decisions now, and will continue to into the future. I'm actually preparing for a trip in the next week or so with my wife. We moved a few months ago, and are all settled into the new house, and doing good so it seemed like the perfect time. I really enjoy tripping in the fall, but even more so on mushroomy spring days makes me feel very intune.

That's just your morals. There is nothing wrong with selling shrooms. Just be fair about it, like anything else. There are plenty of people older than you still growing and selling them... And have eaten much more of them without ever feeling horrible guilt for it. You're also the one that says that one shouldn't bitch about paying $40 for an 8 hour ride that you can't get from anything else. Well, the same should go for mushrooms, right? I understand people think they are sacred and all... but people think church is too, and they make a lot more money than to only pay expenses!

I have taken shrooms the day after a good trip. If I take the same dose as the day before, then I get a really good 'body high' going. My legs get extremely sore though, especially my thighs. Now, I don't know if that is from just walking around a lot the day before from trippin or if the shrooms effect some part of the nervous system that will do that to the legs..... The next day trip is very lucid. You will get very high, dilated pupils, but be very on point ( mind functioning at a hyper level). Like a hightenned sense of awareness

I had a bad trip on shrooms only one time... I tried to use shrooms to fight a cocaine come down... I did over a gram of coke then was fiending for more drugs.... so I ate a eighth of shrooms. That was horrible, but there was other bad shit going on in my life... so in the end it was actually fantastic and enlightening. Helped me clean up some messes later down the road... that was just the start of fixing bad relationships and habbits
You and me both on this one man. Except mine was an 8ball and only a half 1/8 of shrooms but god those were some of the most terrifying / exhilarating visuals of my life.

Just looking at the numbers a lot of you guys chomp of shrooms is just insane to me. Kudos to you all, but I know my limits lol, and for psychs they're pretty low. Stims though..... But then you get nothing out of those. Well, a good night usually.
