As I drink this Copelandia cyanescens potent brew, mixed with about 100ml freshly squeezed orange juice and a day's worth of picking mushrooms (about 3 cups water hot but not boiling poured over 3 cups smashed mushroom sludge with acidity)

, after tripping for a few hours already and halfway done with tea, I hold the gulp-fulls in my mouth for 5 min durations before swallowing...

Is this useless?

I honestly don't mind the taste/nausea at this point, mixed with chronic marijuana smoke.

Just wondering if I'm wasting my time bulging my cheeks.

Be patient. You're going to trip balls regardless.

Next time, dry them up, grind them in a coffee grinder, then put them into gelatin capsules and wash them with grapefruit/orange juice.

I've found that despite taking a little bit longer to kick in (having to dissolve the capsule) they hit much harder in the end.

These copies dry out to be alotta mass to shove into pills.


I'm contemplating making a second tea with today and last night's mushrooms in the filters. Breaking them up etc. add boiling water for another.

Would this make an effective tea, or not worth it?

Even when making tea- drying them out and grinding them into a fine dust makes it more potent.

I heard putting them into a PB&J works nicely.

The only reason it would be necessary to keep shrooms in your mouth longer would be if you were eating them and they were not grinded because the stomach has a hard time digesting mushrooms.

If you grind them up and put them on a sandwich or funnel it down your throat then there is no reason to keep them in your mouth longer.

Considering what was said above, holding shroom tea in your mouth would probably not make you trip harder.

hmm... well the spit would pre-digest them more in your mouth, spit speeds it up and makes it easier, so yeah, that probably is a good idea.

The only things you hold in your mouth before swallowing are Listerine and good whiskey.

i drank a bunch of jack daniels last night.. i can't stand the taste of whiskey.. fucking vodka tastes better IMO.

I couldn't think of any benefit of keeping it in your mouth any longer than it takes you to swallow it. I'm pretty sure that when people say you should chew them longer/have them in your mouth longer, it's just to grind them up and produce more surface area for your stomach to digest. I think this just makes the effects kick in faster, but no stronger. I could be wrong, so somebody correct me if its the case.

sub lingual diffusion to the blood vessels.. hcl damages psilo, bypassing hcl=donut? i mean good.

along the lines of why you hold spit in your mouth when you dose. why do people drop on top of their tung? shouldn't dropping it on the blood mass under your tung work best?

I don't even remember if I was holding it in my mouth or not - those first few posts are complete rambling. I was frying hard. ;)
