Frequently Asked Questions

Are freshly picked mushrooms stronger than dried ones?

Drugs Info = Mushrooms
Difficult to say. Growing conditions, age, and species can all affect the amounts of psilocybin and psilocin in mushrooms. Psilocin breaks down easily and doesn't survive the drying process. Psilocybin is much hardier (it survived over 115 years in one tested sample). Psycho activity depends on the ratios of the two in the mushrooms, which varies from species to species.

How many mushrooms should you take?

Drugs Info = Mushrooms
Psilocybin content varies widely from species to species and from mushroom to mushroom. There are no hard and fast rules regarding dosage. As a rough guide, however, a medium dose is equivalent to three grams dried, or 30 grams fresh. First time, aim low. You can always increase the amount another time, but you can't undo a far-too-large dose. Be wary of over-confidence. Each psychedelic trip is different and each level of the experience has its own intensity and pitfalls.

Which is stronger: dried or fresh herbs?

FareShare Home: Spice Rack Tips & FAQs
Dried herbs are stronger in flavor than fresh leaf herbs. When adding dried leaf herbs to a recipe that calls for fresh ones, substitute 1/3 the amount called for in the recipe. When using dried herbs, crush them in the palm of your hand or between your fingers. This will release the flavor quicker. Whole herb leaves are a better choice than ground or powdered herbs because they hold their flavor longer in storage; pulverize just before using.

Should I spray water on the freshly dried cement to keep it cool in hot conditions?

Welcome to Concrete Innovations
No, this was a practice used for many years. Frequent wetting of the freshly dried cement causes the cement to become hot then cold, resulting in expanding and contracting. This reaction is not good for the cement and may cause it to crack and weaken. Additionally, applying water too early can wash out color on your decorative concrete.

Are magic mushrooms poisonous?

Drugs Info = Mushrooms
No. Psilocybin mushrooms are not toxic. The National Institute For Occupational Safety And Heath (NIOSH) in the US Psilocybin (641) is rated less toxic than Aspirin (199) and Nicotine (21). However, the main danger is in mistakenly picking poisonous, non-magic mushrooms. Do not gather mushrooms unless you know what you are doing. You can find a guide here

No - it doesn't work. High temperatures destroy psilocybin, the active ingredient. Plans for that 'magic pizza', 'magic soup' or 'magic omelette' should be shelved.

What is your favorite recipe for preparing dried mushrooms for consumption?

Shroom Wizard "Mushroom Travel Agent" - Frequently...
This is my favorite recipe for those people who do not like the taste (or thought) of eating fresh or dried mushrooms. It is very easy to make, tastes good and takes very little time. It’s enough for 4 people using only 7 grams of dried mushrooms. Place 7 grams of dried (or 70 grams fresh) mushrooms in the small cooking pot. Add two cups of water and bring to a boil over the stove while stirring with a fork. Remove from heat.

How do I identify non-poisonous mushrooms?

Drugs Info = Mushrooms
It's possible that too high a dose of psilocybin could lead to a catatonic state but there is nothing in literature about black outs. How much are you taking? If you are taking relatively small amounts, it's likely your body is telling you something and you've made the right decision to stop. If you are taking large amounts (4 or 5 grams dried or more), it may be that your dose is just too high.

Can I replace the objective lens in my Night Vision monocular (binoculars) with stronger ones?

Leisuretec - Night Vision Frequently Asked Questions
While it is technically possible to replace the objective lens, please note that the standard factory lens is adjusted to align precisely with the position of the Intensifier Tube, so that the unit can be focused correctly for both close and far distances. Any replacement may jeopardize the correct focusing ability of your Night Vision Device and may also limit its light amplification properties thus making the device less bright during night-time use.

Is it true that heroin is stronger than it used to be?

Drugs - Info = Heroin
Purity varies, fluctuating on a local basis depending on availability (dealers reduce purity when they don't have as much) but generally, yes, heroin is purer now than it has ever been. Part of this is because former cocaine cartels are now branching out into heroin as well, flooding the market. Higher purity also makes snorting and inhaling an alternative to injecting without too much compromising of the intensity of the high.
