The Shroom Thread

FFS sounds dodgy as hell

Only if you don't follow the instructions. I'ts important to use a solvent that doesn't leave any residue.
Don't use denatured ethanol for this specific reason. Naptha, or lighter fluid, is quite expensive here compared to the states. Though I've used Benzine, which is very similar, if not the same.
Of all the tek's out there I'd recommend Norman's Tek, it's pretty straight forward.
For materials you can try wakingherbs.
 
I contacted 420m today and they said they can't assist with shrooms. Seems like they stopped selling. Where can I purchase shrooms online
 
You guys should try to grow your own shrooms. Its not hard - the hardest part is getting hold of spores. Luckily there is a good supplier in the UK.

I've now had shrooms in my eyes for about 5 months. At any point in the last 5 months, I've had enough for a massive trip.

The interesting thing is that, I haven't felt like having massive trips much. I've had one or two, but not many. I tend to microdose more often, or take doses that are around 1g.

So, one interesting thing is that my experience completely blows the whole "its addictive" thing out the water. Its not. I don't even know how much shrooms I have right now, but I'm in no hurry to take all of it. I'm thinking of tripping tomorrow - if I do, it will be more like 2-3g. I definitely don't have this compulsive urge to trip, despite having access to almost unlimited quantities (assuming I put in enough effort to actually grow them).

My favourite thing to do with shrooms is probably take 0.5g to 1g and then have an afternoon nap. It needs to be at the lower end of the scale or else the visuals are too distracting, and its probably a good idea to wait a bit, you will have the best afternoon nap of your life. If anyone has trouble sleeping, take a small dose of shrooms and then have a nap. You will sleep like you've never slept before, and wake up refreshed.

Also, the right dose can create this euphoria in you that feels pretty intense. Still, it depends heavily on your state before you do shrooms. If you are in a good space, the euphoria is more likely to occur.

I feel like the combination of shrooms and a bit of self hypnosis have led me to making more progress this year - personally - than in many other previous years. I feel like I've dealt with something very personal that I've been grappling with for a long time. Sure, it hasn't turned me into Jesus or anything, and some old problems remain, but I feel like I've made a lot of progress this year. Family members have remarked on my progress, not knowing it is because drugs. Or at least, I feel it is. I feel like frequent use of shrooms really does add up. A few trips, a lot of microdoses, a lot of mini doses.

Fixed.

Totally agree... I don't actually enjoy the whole coming up experience at all... I usually find a magic space of unbelievable bliss just after peaking as the rush is over.

I'm finding I usually find that place of bliss / euphoria when I relax & deep breathe into it from my belly. It's indescribable... just wow... no words can explain it. It takes practice to reach that space in my experience.

Yeah! It seems to increase my deep sleep according to my Oura ring.

Sometimes I want a more trippy experience. But, lately I'm starting to think that those are best shared with friends.

If I'm really tripping, stuff like that won't even occur to me! What I usually try to do is time my meditation for a bit after the come up on a small dose, that seems to work pretty well.

Its good and bad I suppose. Like, it can make me feel sleepy when I don't really want to be. But, the cure for that is generally a good nap, which is never a bad thing!

Growing is easy. Maybe I got lucky, but just by reading the instructions, I managed to produce mushrooms on my first try. I did have some bad jars that I had to throw out, but it wasn't like it took me multiple tries to get it right.

I took about 1g last night and after about 2 hours while watching TV I started drifting off into a half asleep lucid dream like state. It was more entertaining than YouTube so I switched off and woke up this morning feeling refreshed and defragged.

Weird, because never fall asleep so easily. I don't usually get tired on low dose shrooms.
 
Low dose doesn't make me tired, higher doses do. But even smaller doses make me sleep much better.

The highest I've done is 5 grams and it didn't make me tired, in fact I have great difficulty sleeping after that.
 
I think the shrooms that I'm growing are weaker than normal shrooms, I don't know. I'm still trying to work out what I'm doing wrong. The thing is, microdoses perform roughly as expected, but higher doses don't really work the way that I'd expect. Higher doses seem to be around one quarter as strong as they should be, and I don't really know why.

I had 2g of shrooms in South Africa, and had a good trip. I took 2.8g of my own shrooms today and had nothing but mild visuals. It made me more introspective but it certainly wasn't a proper trip.

Anyway, the reason I bring all that up is that earlier this year, I had 5.6g dry coupled with syrian rue. Syrian rue makes any psychedelic about twice as strong, and it also makes them last much longer. That was undoubtedly the trippiest trip I've ever had, with the most colourful visuals I've ever seen.

Because of the syrian rue, at one point I went down for a nap, tripping, and woke up an hour later, still tripping. That was strange.

Not that I'd recommend syrian rue. It works, but A) sometimes you actually want the trip to just end so you can get on with life, B) the physical side effects like nausea lasting for 48 hours after you do it are terrible! I think in future I'd rather just do a huge dose of shrooms, maybe make it into a tea.

From reading about trip reports though, my 5.6g with syrian rue together was only about a level 4, not level 5. I never felt ego dissolution or anything like that.
 
Whereabouts can one obtain shrooms in JHB?
I'm going on holiday so I might want to try it once.
But I'll need someone to tell me this piece is 1g etc.
 
If our friends had to use daily I hear he has the odd minor "panic attack" but passes quickly and he carries on with his day. He definitely focusses better and is able to put all attention onto the task at hand without thoughts wondering off into the blue yonder. He uses Generic Rit. Not the Navartis. If he only uses now and then it seems to work best. He says its excellent to drink on too.
Would still need a script for generic Ritalin I think though right?

Ritalin is a schedule 6 medication, the highest we get. I was on for a few months in uni and your doctor can't even give a repeat script if you use it chronicly.
 
I started doing therapy a few months ago to deal with some mild but very long standing depression. I don't feel like the talking is really getting anywhere and I am hesitant to use any medication other than SSRI's.

I've done a lot of reading up on the benefits of psilocybin and I think that this might be the right way to kickstart the healing process. What interests me most is doing deep trips in a guided group setting but I am struggling to to find any info or references to where I could do this (and probably for good reason).

Does anything like this exist, preferably not too far from Durbanville area.

Alternatively perhaps someone could hook me up with a few grams for me to try out some smaller doses on my own.
