Micro dosing?

[Smoke_A_Lot]

I can get my hands on some Monk Envy shrooms and was thinking about micro dosing. Anyone do the same? My intention is to take the least possible, I'm not interested in tripping. This will be the first time for me trying shrooms.

Depending on potency a quarter to a half gram is where I'd start, but my body processes stuff crazy dosage wise for anything.
A friend of mine would do/does .2 grams in his routine and not notice anything other than a better outlook on life.

I'm trying to take the least, never done psychedelics before so I'm worried about a bad trip. I have prescription seroquel and xanax handy if need be. Should I put them in capsules or swallow the pieces whole? I know different shrooms have different potency levels so it's a gamble.

I'd think making a tea or tincture would be easiest to control the dosage. But idk for sure.
.5 to 1 gram is way above micro dosing. I would call that threshold dosing.
Micro is like 1/10th of a gram.... .1 g or under.

You might end up seeing the walls breathe a bit while finding the right dose, especially with how much potency can vary. As long as that doesn't bother you and you're heading into this with the right intentions, I'd say go for it.

Also, nothing wrong with starting small and adding on dose wise. You can always take more, but as they say, you buy the ticket, you take the ride.

Lemon tek is another good way to take them, grind up the shrooms, mix with lemon juice, let it sit 15 min or so then down it. Adding a little sugar or honey and a splash of water afterwards makes it much easier to down the juice. But don't overthink it, you can just chew them up and wash them down if the taste doesn't bother you.

And if you're worried about having a bad trip, do what you can to prepare yourself. Prepare light foods to snack on like melons and fruits, have plenty of water, etc. Throw together a playlist of relaxing music, clean your home, practice meditation and breathing techniques to clear your mind; set and setting can really make or break a trip.

i got into it this past year. i did shrooms n trips way back too. nowadays i like to small dose and if its mellow enough i can all my regular stuff. even sleep easy on it. but i found some chocolate bars online cheap from oregon that make it easier to control the dosage. that would be my suggestion to someone starting out. also i hv a busy household so i cant enjoy real trips unless its a beachday or something mellow planned.


i got into mycology eventually and it took a chunk of my growing time/space/energy. then i grew enough to whr i am good for awhile. mycology is cool bc when u eventually get it right it just keeps producing wt less input! at that point its mainly about controlling air exchange/humidity.

i got spoiled and like eating fresh ones the most now. kinda like when u grow own herb.
love the parallels 🤙

and fluffybutt is correct. get yr zone cozy first bc a messy house stresses me out and then i question my whole life. "why do we even make dishes dirty?.... " 🤣

The chocolate is a good idea, I can get my hands on those too. This person I know is offering eighths of shrooms for $15. He said Monk Envy is hard to grow and they have less side effects such as nausea. I don't know how true that is, when I lookup "Monk Envy" all I come across is articles about "Penis Envy".

The whole reason I want to try micro dosing is because I've heard about it helping with depression and anxiety. I'd also like to try micro doses of Ketamine, I heard it helps with those same mental problems. I wonder what would benefit me more? Maybe I'll try both but not together at the same time 😂

Thanks to everyone who responded, I got a lot to chew on (no pun intended) 😂
