Canndo can you give more detail about difference in trips between dry and fresh? Curious as to characteristics. More visuals more energetic etc. Also is there some generally accepted ratio to estimate dry vs fresh dose equivalent. Eat 10x fresh for 1x dry etc. Thx.

Very nice, just keep it up.
Let me ask about one little issue. Actually, I saved the images but when I start them, the image is
not generated. Clarkston Workout
Can you see the problem?

I reiterate - this could be just imagination even though everyone I have ever met that has tried them fresh has the same experience, I know of no science that backs this up. The trip seems to be more ... sparkely, brighter, less disorienting, perhaps even a bit more friendly and comforting at the same time. I usually do 9 to 1, there is some loss of psylicin (or the other, I don't recall which) in the drying process so I find that the fresh ones are slightly more potent than dried.
Thanks for the background and the caveats. Good info. I'll just have to try both ways and see for myself. For ah... Field research. Hehe
No kidding? I'll have to try it this way, that is if I can eat them fresh without yakin all over the place. I can barely eat them dried.

They don't taste nearly so bad fresh, some people actually like the taste - I don't though, you can also crank them through your juicer and drink the stuff - I don't now how much is wasted, it depends on your juicer I suppose - you get a pretty blue substance.

^ I have to disagree and say they taste worse fresh. either way it's bad. I would prefer the fastest method..... which for me is tea
lol first trip ever on your own stuff would be funky. I'd be afraid that I messed up and poisoned myself if it was first trip/first grow.
nah you should probably eat them all to get the full experience.
I hate how everyone likes to start small.
DOSE BIG, LESS OFTEN

I've only ever made tea once and I don't feel like much was lost. I used them dry though. Psilocybin and its chemical friends are water soluble as I'm sure you know, so if you grind them up well I think you get most of it back. When I did it I ate 3.5g and it felt like I ate like 3g or so. Other than the small loss, the only real difference was I started feeling it after 20min as opposed to thbe usually 45min or so. I think the biggest advantage would be for people who experience gastrointestinal problems eating them whole. I only ever get mild gas and very mild stomach upset, but as a tea it was pretty much eliminated all together.

Dry them, powder them with a coffee grinder, add the dried powder to "00" gel capsules at .5g's each. I stopped having stomach problems this way, only mushy taste you get is if you burp an hour or so later. Pop 5 or 6 caps 30min before your ready to rock, easy to dose before concerts, events, etc.... Also easy to just add the dose of powder to a bottle of OJ, just shake it up and drink. I can't bring myself to eat them fresh or dry whole any more. Finished capsules look just like Ginko Biloba you get from the vitamin store. I store 75% of my harvest in capsules in the fridge, they keep longer that way

Wow. Look at those things. I'm hot for Teacher!!! I'm growing Ecuador and the rhizo is really ropey. If I could get half that yield Id be thrilled. Might try PE next especially based on how you describe the buzz. Exactly what I'm looking for. I can couch lock with some indica. On shrooms I want to fly baby!

Ecuador throws off some pretty massive fruits. I'm running a coco mono right now and just harvested the 2nd flush a few days ago. I should have taken some pics. Nothing like the size up above but pretty impressive nevertheless. I've run probably half of Spore Works cube menu and still go back to their GT and Ecuador. Think I might give PE a try too next time I order.
Would you guys who've tried it say the yields with PE are similar to the yields of other cube strains? I always hear people say how the yields of specialty strains like that are less than your conventional strains. That was my personal experience with AA+. Cool looking but are difficult to fruit and small yielding.
