>proven to have significant benefits for mental clarity, depression, eliminating drug addictions, DPDR disorders etc >no negative side effects especially at doses used purely for this purpose (outside of that it's horror stories, and of the ones that aren't complete bullshit they're horribly misrepresented and intentionally deceptive) >easily and inexpensively growable at home Imagine chugging your placebo supplements made with who the fuck knows what since the supplement industry is extremely unregulated instead of, taking a page from clickbait articles, the miracle drug Big Pharma unironically doesn't want you to know about
Don't put all your faith in me or disregard it as a knee-jerk reaction, do your own research on microdosing and come to your own conclusions, but I thought it was bullshit at first, tried it since I already had access when I was in the Netherlands and couldn't believe the effect it had the next day
Ultrabased but will probably be deleted by jannies
Anthony Martinez
I made this thread before but was a lot more subtle this time for that reason, I wouldn't be upset about it if the board wasn't already 90% off topic garbage
Caleb Nelson
Whats worth mentioning with DP/DR specifically is there's no medically approved treatments for it and literally "just stop being that way lol" tier advice from therapy is the only thing you'll get. Either way shrooms are being reevaluated for medical usage due to this trend skyrocketing and Colorado's efforts with legalizing it
Eli Hall
DR/DP is an associated condition with depression and anxiety issues from what I understand. It goes away when you get the other stuff in order.
Ethan Jones
can you give me more info i am interested
its provolone mushrooms or lions mane? do you grow your own from mason jars?
Liam Martin
Based, except macro doses are also awesome when done in the right set/setting. OP confirmed for pussy. Also fuck jannies
Jack Wood
I've had it for extended periods when not suffering from noticeable depression or anxiety though general insomnia and vitamin D levels being "one of the worst I've [my primary physician] ever seen" probably isn't helping. Regardless of the cause it did help me with those, however I've only done it on a micro scale a couple times and am waiting for my own to grow
Standard cubes for the strain, B+ and golden teacher are especially retard proof and ubiquitous. For growing I basically combined information from about 10 pf tek guides (added shaking the jars laterally which according to a ton of people speeds up growth considerably). For jars you'll need half pint mason jars with no inward curving lip such as the OP's It's still one of my favorite drugs at macro levels even though for a halluciongen it's tame, but I was trying to avoid bringing up recreational use to keep the janny and shitposters away
Aiden Adams
>Standard cubes for the strain, B+ and golden teacher are especially retard proof and ubiquitous dude I have no idea about mushrooms can you explain to me like im a retard, this sounds like gibberish. What is a standard cube?
Robert Lopez
it isn't off topic garbage, it's very much in tune with the original title of the board - health and fitness
psychedelic mushrooms, cubensis being the first example that comes to mind for me (if you want to look up a particular species)
Properly guided therapy, even in a non-traditional setting with another experienced user as a guide, is confirmed as one of the best palliatives for treatment resistant depression, anxiety, and dopamanergic drug addiction. Research on psilocybin (the active ingredient) started up again about a decade ago in scandanavian countries, and it's been gaining steam since then.
If you are intensely depressed, I would highly reccomend it. Get some shrooms, get one or two good friends (people who you genuinely care about, ideally who are experienced) and go on a day long hike/walk in the countryside, away from other humans. I've struggled with treatment resistant depression since I was around 11, and been dealing with PTSD since 20, and genuinely cannot express how much it has helped me stabilize and reorient when things get really bad. It isn't the only influence, but it would have been much harder to make it through college, let alone grad school, without being able to conduct my own therapy with them.
tl;dr just fucking get some already, and ask questions if you want
Psilocybe cubensis (cubes) is the family of mushroom that has psilocybin, B+ and golden teachers are common and non-fussy strains. You can buy a spore syringe in most states for like $20 online, I bought one in Amsterdam and just brought it back to the US; after your first grow you can make your own spore syringes by making spore prints and mixing them with clean water or some nutrient solution
Cameron Sanchez
I just meant recreational drug use threads is off topic but in the context of modern Jow Forums it fits in well enough. Regardless, I'm currently growing and hoping this fixes my shit after trying it for an extended period because my other option at this point is pretty much prozac
Chase Lee
Fair enough, brah
There is a genus of mushrooms called Psilocybe which contain psilocybin and psilocin, which are drugs you should look up on wiki. Cubensis is a popular species of said genus. You can buy spores online legally and grow them illegally, unless you’re in CA and two other states. Plenty of guides online.
Connor Johnson
Maybe I’m taking too much or taking them wrong, but the last few times I’ve taken shrooms my anxiety has just gone through the roof. I think about all the terrible things I’m capable of in the moment. I don’t get the urge to do anything, but that capability. It’s like looking over a cliff and always freaks me out. Maybe microdosing is the way to go, but honestly I’ve just stayed away from psychs since I graduated.
Joshua Cox
Trips are completely different and subjective, microdosing results in real, physical changes. I've exhibited microdose effects following light (level 2ish) trips but not moderately high (4) ones personally
James Parker
I've had similar experiences. I wouldn't my trips weren't beneficial, but the intense fear and anxiety is almost unbearable to me at times. Although I probably shouldn't take any psychedelics considering I'm a bipolar retard. Been considering microdosing the last 4g I have left
Listen to these anons on having trust-worthy and experienced friends/guides around when you trip. Shit can get rough.
Levi Price
Brain gains Fuck jannies Also op that jar looks bad at the top.
Look it up somewhere. Nobody wants to give illegal advice.
Hunter Baker
Is that hericium How'd you get that
Jason Gomez
Off the top of my head, vermiculite, brown rice flower (brf) and micropore tape for colonization, then a plastic tub I forgot the dimensions of and perlite for fruiting plus anything needed for drying and storage. Again just Google "growing [magic mu]shrooms" and/or "pf tek" >illegal There's guides all over the internet that are easily Google-able, law enforcement already doesn't give a fuck about shrooms and you think anyone would get in trouble for advice on here. Nigga you stupid
Adam Thompson
Top is fine, I forgot what it was but ruled out any sort of contamination it could be. Was something to do more with heat or moisture or something I forgot but it's fine
Liam James
For the record a tripsitter is for like level 4+ trips (I managed level 4 myself alone my first time doing shrooms) and microdosing is at a level with no psychoactive effects
Trips are beneficial but not reliably and not for physical/brain chemistry reasons
Benjamin Thompson
I'm sure Ashwagandha is placebo fuck off with your stupid junkie drugs, loser faggot.
Isaac Barnes
Aw look, it's babby's first edgy straight edge phase. Go educate yourself on specifically microdosing this specific drug instead posting inane horseshit like this like you have any idea what you're talking about
Jayden Gutierrez
just because you can't into neurochemistry doesn't mean the rest of us are ignorant brainlets who can't follow a long instagram post let alone an academic article
Nevermind I read the wrong post. Still it's bait anyway
Charles Nelson
I unironically work in the mushroom industry. Feel free to ask me any cultivation questions. Might create a thread on the appropriate board if people are interested enough
Mason Fisher
Neat, a /shroom/ thread Can anyone tell me what kinda shroom this is? Found it while I was trimming hedges and if it's edible i'd like to grow some more
I mean pf tek isn't retard proof but unlike jars one contamination won't ruin you. If you need absolute retard proof just buy a kit which is already colonized substrate (colonizing being the hard part about the process)
Jayden Russell
Well, read the OP information and see if you're interested in microdosing anyway. For culinary mushrooms I'd try /ck/ if they decide to stop blogging about off topic garbage for once
Gabriel Young
No shit
Isaac Hill
I actually am very much but like most people who are I have no idea where to even start in procuring the spores or growing them
Eli Williams
Can order spores in all states but CA, GA and Idaho, like $20 for a syringe. Aside from that basically do what PF tek guides say thethirdwave.co/psychedelics/shrooms/grow-psilocybin-mushrooms/ Is a good one but I referenced a ton during my first grow to find consistent methodology
Landon Jenkins
what's the best starting point but non kit, jars or tub? there seem to be many different methods and i just want something relatively easy to get going.
Luis Torres
Jars is more work and less yield but your entire batch isn't fucked if something gets contaminated (of my 8 jars, one got contaminated meaning a monotub in this situation would have been fucked). Do PF tek at least once, collect spores via prints, make your own spore vials then look into monotubs if you want since you'll at least have more spores
Christopher Reed
Imagine needing drugs to cope with reality LOL
Brandon Collins
thank you, that is very helpful.
Brayden Brown
supremely based and true redpilled lion's mane mushroom
Caleb Scott
I get it, it's pretty overwhelming at first. Kits aren't that bad if you only buy one, take the spores and PF tek/monotub after but quality with them isn't consistent
William Reyes
microdosing is boring as peakings where its at
Blake Young
...
Liam Jones
Do you think i can make some ok amount of money if start growing cubes and sell them over the internet
Andrew King
Not him but if there was a large demand everyone would be doing it
Sebastian Garcia
1. How did you get into the buisness, What education have you got, are you employed or did you start sone company?
2. Been taking lionsmane powder (3grams morning and evening) for visual snow/DR for almost a month but it dosnt seem to have had any effect, do you think its the specific powder company thats shit or?
Jace Carter
3. Tell me about Big Mushroom
Angel Flores
>normies don't care because normies >addicts don't care because nonaddictive >because demand is low and it's a niche-ish drug, prices are high >people use existing, reputable sources since there's virtually no buyer protection >normies hypothetically suddenly care for one reason (likely due to MDing catching on) >demand goes up hard >big suppliers who can afford to sell their shit for next to nothing do so, everyone else is fucked >police also start caring by this point
Luke Murphy
fun fact spores are generally legal (minus the states mentioned) because the spores don't contain psilocybin. This is the same reason why you could easily buy cannabis seeds ten years ago on the internet, thc is illegal, cannabis seeds aren't.
Henry Gray
>imagine doing anything interesting instead of living a boring ass paste-eating life where you exclusively Do The Right Thing because of some dumb shit you were taught about drugs in fifth grade
also interested in the lions mane question - upregulating NGF is a worthwhile health goal in and of itself in my opinion, but I'd love to get an educated opinion on if lions mane actually accomplishes that or it's nonsense
Matthew Davis
Any info on how when and where you can harvest shrooms? My country is straight edge and I also don't want to give drug dealers money
Noah Price
>how links in this thread on how to grow your own easily for very little money >when they grow indoors in a small area, emit no odor, require no special lights >where under your bed if you really don't have space anywhere else.
Aaron Thompson
For what it's worth there isn't really violence around shrooms as far as illegal drugs go. Shrooms are expensive as all fuck being my main reason to grow, secondary can't be bothered finding a dealer
Samuel Moore
after it rains, near the edge of but not in fields or natural clearings are where you'll find liberty caps, under/growing out from cow patties you'll find cubensis, and under beds everywhere you will find any and every kind
Hunter Campbell
And then user misidentifies it and poisons himself
Logan Stewart
shhhhh no he won't it's fine
go for it OP
Aaron Jones
>I'm this user >If this mushroom were edible how would I go about using it to reproduce more of them You could create a spore print from it and try innoculating some liquid culture or even a pf tek style jar with supplemented sawdust. However this is pretty risky work because you're working with a wild mushroom that is very prone to contamination. Your best bet would be to clone the tissue onto agar and grow it out from there. But not everyone has the means or equipment necessary to do that
>Do you think i can make some ok amount of money if start growing cubes and sell them over the internet Yes you can absolutely do it. Mushrooms are very easy to grow in bulk once you know what you're doing. They're also incredibly cheap to grow so your profit js very strong. Demand for them on deepweb is high. Back when I use to do it, I had 500g dry sold in 2 hours at $20 a gram. Cost me about $40 of materials
>1. How did you get into the buisness, What education have you got, are you employed or did you start sone company? I started out by growing shrooms but soon got bored of it once I mastered the art. I applied to a local small business in the mushroom industry and got the job. Now I dabble in more difficult, culinary mushrooms. Business has grown a lot too and we supply a good majority of our country with mushroom cultures >2. Been taking lionsmane powder (3grams morning and evening) for visual snow/DR for almost a month but it dosnt seem to have had any effect, do you think its the specific powder company thats shit or? Most companies that sell dissolvable mushroom powders source them from China. They're an okay option but the environment over there is pretty shit and is rumored to effect the product. I'm personally a big fan of Paul Stamets supplements (host defence is the company) and can vouch for them anecdotally
Liam Cruz
I'm this user. Does anyone have any good discord tutorials. I've always wanted to create a community and share my knowledge with anons
Isaiah Cruz
There were precedents in my country when people got bend over by LEs for possessing the spores. I can't be entirely sure it was only spores, but it's still kinda risky. I guess I need to find some identification guide with pictures and go innawoods. Seems like the only safe solution
Angel Brown
Mushrooms are the ultimate mental health supplement.
Dose occasionally, I just did 3 g this weekend
>reflect on life so far, consider the forces which have shaped me >gain new appreciation for friends and family >reflect on whether what I am doing is truly interesting to me >engage in ecstatic dance in living room >everything is beautiful and fascinating, new appreciation for this beautiful world
If youre not doing mushrooms, you are missing out.
