There has to be a better way
I have been microdosing psychedelic mushrooms for a few months now and I have started to get really sick of the taste of these things. At first, they weren't too bad, but after a while, I started to get sick of when the pieces would get stuck in my mouth and I would taste the mushrooms for a while after I was done drinking whatever I had mixed them in.
I had just started off taking a mushroom out of the container and weighing it to get an idea of the dose I was about to have. At that point, I would cut pieces off of it to get it close to 0.5 grams, or I would add a bit of other ones if it was under. Well, that was a pretty inefficient way to microdose. I also was doing too high of a dose whenever I was doing it.
So I began to research different ways to microdose and that was when I found out that around 0.1 to 0.2 grams is the best dosage, but the way I was doing it before would have led to some pretty inconsistent doses of the main ingredient for microdosing: psilocybin.
I found out that the best way to get a very consistent dose is to grind it all up into a powder and measure it from there. Duh, why had I never done that before?
So I bought myself a cheap coffee grinder and dumped all the mushrooms inside and ground it up. Now when you do this, you need to make sure that you let it settle inside the grinder for about 15 minutes or so because if you don't there will be a cloud of dust that shoots out of it and if you inhale it, you could inadvertently set yourself on an unexpected trip to outer space.
The next step after grinding it all up is to find out how much of the powder is the correct dose. So I got some super small measuring spoons and weighed out some of the scoops on my tiny scale. I found that 1/16 of a teaspoon is exactly 0.1 grams.
You want to use about 0.1 grams per 100 pounds of body weight to get a perfect dosage. So I would need around 0.2 grams whenever I microdose and not the 0.5 grams that I was doing before. Some people microdose every other day, but I have been doing it every 3-4 days and have found that to be successful.
Microdosing mushrooms will not get you high or give you any visuals or anything. Instead it helps with so many different things, such as reducing depression, increasing creativity, reducing anxiety and many other positives. I used to be on so many different medications from the VA and have been able to remove all of those medications thanks to cannabis and microdosing mushrooms.
The pills that I was prescribed were literally killing me from the inside and now I have my life back and my health has turned around completely. It is crazy to think that about all the benefits that we have naturally, but these are not always accepted by society because of years of lies from the government and pharmaceutical companies. They want you dependent on them and they do not want you to be able to heal yourself naturally on your own.
This powder can be used in several different ways. You can sprinkle it on your food or mix it in with your favorite drink and with it being a fine powder, the taste is minimal. I have rolled it into pieces of salted caramel and it was amazing.
It is crazy to think of all the different plants and stuff that we have available to us and the healing powers that they contain. For me, I will continue to use natural medicine instead of pharmaceuticals that have a ton of negative side effects.
Another thing you can do is buy some pill capsules, then you can put your recommended dose in the cap, and then just swallow a pill once a day. Thats sick that you found a great alterative to those nasty pills.
I have looked into buying the stuff to make pill capsules. It is a lot of work setting all of the pills up and then capping them. I think I might stick to just mixing it in drinks and food for now.
Sounds pretty good, but I've grinded truffles and found out that the active substance disappears after a while sitting in an container or Glas
I guess the moisture in the air react with the substance and convert it, however I'm not an expert, might be different with mushrooms 🍄🍄🍄 Hive on
I have never heard of that, but I do know that with truffles, you will need to almost double the weight since they are lower in psilocybin. I once had 3.5 grams of truffles and didn't feel anything from them. Different strains of shrooms also have higher or lower potency.
I wanted to trip with a friend, so I ordered some, dryed them (carefully) and then powdered them with a coffee grinder
I stored them for a month, then each of us took 7 grams and the effects was maybe a bit more than microdosing...
Anyway, I think I have to order a grow box for regular mushrooms next time
Its insanity. Profit over health, so wrong.
Preach brother!
Can you get this legal? Where you are?
Also have you tried rolling 0.2mg into a joint? xD
Ya, the pharmaceutical companies have been ruining so many people's lives. I can't get any of this stuff legally where I am. I do have medical marijuana where I live though, so I can go to a dispensary and get it, but the cost is insane. It is much cheaper to grow it all myself. Plus I have found the quality to be a lot better. I need to get another mushroom grow underway.
Ohh, so you grow everything yourself! Thats awesome! I love trust that so much more than getting it from anywhere else!
I have thought about trying to do mushroom microdosing for a while now, could be neat. Not sure my roomie would be pleased or if I have space for the right growing condition.
Growing mushrooms is pretty tricky. The conditions need to be super sterile and it can get messed up very easily. My second batch got contaminated and I had to throw it all out. It is easy to lose everything.
I have seen a few documentaries on grow mushrooms and such and ye they say the same.
My 3 roomed apartment with a roomie is properly not big or sterile enough :p
Great information and totally agree with the comments on the PharmaCo Mafia.
Thanks man. Big pharma is ruining people's lives.
LOL, I could use some outer space, send some over in a jiffy bag?
Maybe the next Hivefest?? lol
Once you start learning about natural medicine, it is so empowering, there is a remedy in nature for everything that you need. I am happy to hear that you have been finding the mushrooms helpful, I know some folk who make chocolate balls with the powder or mix it in with honey also. xxx
Now that sounds delicious, but we are doing the keto diet right now, so I will have to hold off on chocolate for a bit. I did get a Levo2 to infuse my cannabis oils into different things and I am planning on making gummies in the future.
Lol...we just had some nice chocolate ball mushrooms here recently..they were well good. They also had a bit of Harmala in them 😉
Try with a mouthful household lemon juice people it makes them 3x stronger...
Helps the body digest them more efficiently...

I have heard some citrus can do that.
