Default So how much would you say this is???

I ate roughly, about 3 g's I suspect of mushrooms three nights ago. I bought an 8th, and I would say ate about half of it.

I think this is a gram. I am unsure, ya I should measure it and weigh it but I have no scale.

Anyways, I plan to eat the rest friday. What should I do to get the most out of whats left?. Should I drink grapefruit juice or orange juice?. Empty stomach?.

Thanks.

Note: Photos make bag and shrooms look bigger than they really are..its just a small bit

Lemon or cranberry juice will work better than orange. Higher the acidity the better.

Higher the acidity the better.

I never understood this. What difference is the pH of a fruit juice going to make to ingested shrooms in your stomach, where the pH is something like 2 anyway?

I'm not claiming its complete bullshit, I've heard people tell before of grapefruit juice improving or potentiating a shroom trip, and I know grapefruit at least to improve some opiates metabolise, but I'm curious as to how fruit juices are said to improve the quality of a shroom trip, I'd imagine an increase in the metabolism of psylocin.

Not really sure about the science behind it. From some a few googles, I got that it extracts the psilocybin into the juice which makes it better absorbed into your body. Also the vitamins in the juices are also meant to help.

Fair enough. From that reasoning, and if I didn't suspect it to be a pretty fucking bad combination, one could probably achieve similar results making some sort of shroomy vodka mix. Yum.

alright here is what you do..
i know....trust me..
get those "Emergen C" orange vitamin C packets and mix that in water and drink that with the shrooms..
Vitamin C enhances the Effect.
Or Grab a bottle of orange juice..
also...for better taste...
and enhancement.
heat up water for some tea.
JUST WATER.
put them in the water as to extract some more awesomeness..
then put some honey in the mushroom tea to ...
after you drink that..
DO NOT FORGET THE VITAMIN C.

I always just thought that the citric acid in those juices just makes you digest the shrooms a little more quickly as well as more efficiently. I highly doubt that the vitamin C itself does anything to intensify your trip.

I've also heard people say that it's just one of those drug myths that people tote around. Taken from the fact that a lot of people take mushrooms with orange juice either blended together or with an orange juice chaser to mask the flavor.

I always get the most out of mushrooms by grinding them into a big glass of orange juice. I did that with the last 8th I bought and came up really fast and really intensely. Almost too intense for my taste but with what you have I doubt it would be anything too intense.

An eighth is only 3 and a half grams so you probably only ate like 1 and a half or two grams ..

Caffeine raises the acidity in your stomach. Wouldn't popping a caffeine pill help it to absorb better, then?

Can anyone cite a source reguarding all this vitamin C/orange juice/citric acid shit? This is one of the few things I keep reading that doesn't either eventually have a source cited or called as bullshit and I want to know why. This there actually a pharmacological reason for this or is this just the one drug myth that even the drug geeks here believe?
