That’s awesome we owe our lives to them all! Thank you very much I appreciate it… I did a year and a half over in iraq. In baghdad specifically. But my green and my shrooms is what helps ground me besides my family. It makes it much easier to live a semi normal life.

If it doesnt, bump it up a few points. Like I said you gotta find your sweet spot.

This thread is getting really interesting! Thanks for all your advice and experiences @bizzybone802016 @Pgilpin02!

And a big thanks for your service @bizzybone802016, you guys would deserve so much more support of your country. I hope you managed to get your life back on track!

About the microdosing : I took 4 times 1g of truffles and I got the same effect every day, I’ll start a 3 days break tomorrow. I would like to grow some mushrooms myself as I would prefer to pay less and make little capsules with the dried shrooms. Do you have any specific variety to recommend?

Thanks and happy growing / tripping! :cowboy_hat_face:

id recommend golden teachers for your first attempt, very forgiving, i messed up straight away with these by putting too much spore solution in my kit (probably baked when i was reading the kit instructions) and i still got a decent yield come fruiting time.

No problem man. If I was to start out. I would use pf cakes (look at out grow all in one bags, rye grain and manure only) buy quality spores. And make a shotgun fruiting chamber and you too can grow your own for about a 100 bucks and 6 weeks from inoculation depending on strain. But do your research, but I know you wiill😎

My favorite kind that I have tried so far are called albino penis envy. They are potent but they work wonders.

@bizzybone802016 just had 3 3lb cakes of albino pe turn into penicillin on me bro. But I got 2 cakes of gt and 1 cake of blue meanies ready to go into chamber. And some b+ just inoculated. I’m intrested in these blue meanies.

anyone ever use LED to fruit shrooms? im on buying bits for an FC now and would rather use LED than Cfl for lighting if its possible

Yep they actually like it as much as regular sunlight. Are you going to build a shotgun fruiting chamber and keep it in a tent? Fresh air exchange and humidity are going to be more critical than light. I got two pf cakes of golden teachers fruiting right now. Growing mushrooms is a cool little hobby.

ive got all the bits ready for a chamber im just gonna use natural light this time round, only the second time ive grown them and i just got a full kit with a humidity tent included first time. my substrate was only innocluated about 10 days ago so few weeks until fruiting yet.

No problem dude. Yea the only thing I would recommend is using 2%h2o2 and RO water for your misting. It helps against contamination dramatically.

Hey
I found shrooms a few months ago and had to try them. Good and not so awesome experiences for me.

I have a lot of horrible childhood trauma and when I do a full trip I need counseling after; OMG the stuff shrooms bring back.

So, I keep to microdosing. If you go to Third wave.

The guy who started the website, Paul Austin, is known as the expert in microdosing. The site has classes, charts, podcasts, and books. I bought their course and learned tons. If I can share it I will ( if you are interested).

Another place rife with information is MAPS; Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies. Their annual conference is in Denver this month ( 17-29 I think)

Then, if you want interviews and other expanded states of consciousness (other than shrooms, but including) the Shift Network and the Heart and Mind Institute both broadcast tons of stuff about altered states.

But start with the Third Wave. They have all the information on the Paul Stamets ‘stack’ and his micro-dosing program.

Typically I micro-dose every third day. If I pop a few canna caps with the shrooms I have a good shot of being rather silly and giggly. If I stick with just shrooms ( acid from citrus fruits can compound the affects) I can pretty much count on nobody being able to piss me off all day.

I will say this, I am 60. I have very few childhood memories and while a traditional trip dose brings back the trauma, microdosing has been fun. I do get random minor memories; like the other day I stepped outside and the smell from the cut grass on the golf course brought back in full spectrum of color and smells a memory of walking to the barn one afternoon when I was probably around 8.

Very interesting and fun.

Find your dose and timing and enjoy
