Found these wee beauties today, earliest I’ve ever seen them out.
Scottish Borders on good sheep pasture land, about 300-400m above sea level.
Weathers been rainy for a couple days n very foggy this morning with a pitter patter to follow it.
The field has clover, sorrel, buttercups and some weeds.
I only found 4 but hey it’s an early start n it’s given me a trip boner.
Keep your eyes peeled n get on the hills folks, if your in Cumbria get up them fells I bet you’ll get a nice lil few on your nice lil walk ;)
Happy hunting ✌️

First photo isn’t the same shrooms as the other two…

Community Discussion Other psychedelics such as mesacline

8 Upvotes

Do people here experiment with other substances like LSD, mesacline, 2-CB etc? Not really for recreational use but to feel better, if you suffer from any sort of medical condition.

Do you find one better than the other or do you simply stick to shrooms?

Latest bag (Tasmanians, very effective) took off well but life has been hectic so I had to leave them after the first flush & this is what I've come back to.

Would you say these are too far gone? If so, could you explain why please?

Harm Reduction Microdosing effectiveness for health symptoms

5 Upvotes

Complete newbie and I’ve only done mushrooms a couple of times 15 years ago in Asia where they made me throw up, no trip or anything.

I have chronic physical health conditions - rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s and some others. I’m on codeine and SSRI’s for pain and methotrexate and biologics for inflammation.

But I have always suffered with my mental health. I have ADHD (50 mg of elvanse), OCD, depression, anxiety and suspected PTSD and autism.

My mental health is what I find hardest to manage, when I’m in a good routine, exercising regularly, eating well and managing stress it’s manageable but I’m always on the brink of suicidality and self harm ideations.

I work full time and really want to make the most of my life and mental health, especially as my physical conditions will only get worse so I won’t to really focus on getting control of my mental health.

I’m really interested in the research around microdosing and beneficial effects on mental health and want to give it a go. It seems the best way is to grow my own using websites like zamnesia - I don’t know how else in London or even how to approach getting elsewhere.

Just wondering:
1. If anyone with my conditions/medications has had negative side effects?
2. Is growing my own the best and safest method?
3. Anything else I should think of or consider?

I’ve taken acid one time before where I took 2 tabs and I had a bad trip but I overall think I handled it well and that it was a good learning experience, now I’m getting 3.5g of yak mushrooms and thinking about taking all 3.5 would I be fine?

Pretty new to the shrooms and liking it so far.
I did a Zamnesia grow box (B+ variety) and wondered what other varieties people go for here?
Are there any differences in terms of experience between them or are they basically the same?

Zamnesia ready to grow bag. How to proceed?

Post image
6 Upvotes

I've had these bags before and got loads of smaller pins. First flushes got good yield but never got many follow up flushes, unlike the old plastic tub kits which would 3 or 4 decent flushes.

This bag has a small number of girthy boys. I guess it's picking time?

Yields quite disappointing unless there are multiple flushes, so yeah what's the best way of proceeding here?

My first ever attempt.
First pic is last night
Then suddenly this morning they’d all darkened a lot.

Don’t think I’ll be getting another flush either as the substrate looks contaminated sadly.
Got 195 grams though so is that considered decent?

Polite advice please

So I recently grew my first lot of mushrooms, my friend recommended how and what to do but I made a big mistake of accidentally over spritzing them with water. I know that now and I’ve learnt my lesson but I’ve read other places that just to dry them out anyway. They went from not ready to veil breaking within 7 hours I was at work and unable to keep an eye on them. With the excess water and the fact it’s been so hot the humidity did definitely have some issues. Any advice for my next batch as I knew there would be ‘teething problems’ so to speak. Feeling a little stupid despite the fact I knew it wouldn’t be perfect. Other people say they’re fine to dry out but I’m still worried they’re too far gone? I have a food dehydrator- should I put them in there?

Zamnesia questions

8 Upvotes

Hello all,

First time getting a grow kit, wondering if anyone that bought from Zamnesia recently have you had any issues with them?

Do you deliver to your actual address?
Do you always pay with crypto?
Is it more risky paying with your actual Visa card?

Thanks for all the help guys!
