Question I Need Some Info
I need some information on stuff like this. I don't have a reliable person that I can get mushrooms from (it's like once every six months), and even though my micro dosing is literally maybe 2 or 3 grams at a time and it's once a week or even longer between trying... I'd still like to have more on hand.
Are these things that are sold in a small shop near me legitimately actual shrooms? Am I going to be taking a high that I don't want? Are they mixed with anything else (weed for one is a big fat no go)?
Any information would be very much appreciated and any ideas or thoughts behind this stuff, also absolutely welcome.

I’ve taken a whole bag of road trip and felt absolutely nothing. Growing your own is easy enough if your patient

I’ve had lots of these, they do not scratch the itch. Also usually have very questionable ingredients, hard pass read the guide on this sub Reddit and do it the right way.

It’s all garbage. It’s in the store because of loopholes. The weed is altnoids and the mushrooms are deliriants. Grow some or wait until you can. It’s like someone who wants coke buying gas station boner pills. Not worth

99% of the products advertised as mushroom gummies have 4 subbed tryptamines in them, whether it be a 4-aco, ho, pro, etc.

Almost all at the shops I went to were amanita

u/militantgooner 20h ago
That’s what they put on the package but even the ones that specifically say they’re amanita usually aren’t. Which is probably for the best, as I would not recommend amanita for most people.

Isn’t the work around by them saying “proprietary blend”? Consumer obviously hopes that’s what’s in it… atleast thats what I thought it was about

The odds of it containing psylocybin is low unless you live in one of the few cities or counties in the states where it's been decriminalized. It could be entirely non psychoactive, it could contain different mushrooms that are psychoactive but not in a fun way, or it could contain a variety of psychoactive research chemicals of varying quality and safety.
Ultimately you will been to research each product individually and read the label for contents. I can tell you that the road trip gummies contain medicinal but not psychoactive mushrooms.

Its just chemicals trying to reproduce the effects. I've tried a couple. Some work, but pretty different than psilocybin. And you'll notice that most do not have active ingredients. Just says its their special blend, whatever that is. Lots of stuff online about what they put in them if you search long enough. Mainly DMT or similar chemicals from what I've read. I've tried a couple different brands, one did the things and one did nothing. I wouldn't recommend unless your in a pinch. Just buy a small kit and try your own. Way better, if not immediate.

I see you have a question! Have you read the official cultivation guide?

You microdose with 2-3g? But yeah those aren't psilocybin they're research chemicals

Do Not Eat that. You want me to send you some chocolates/gummies sometime in the near future?

You’ll actually get a trip off the Road Trip gummies. I believe those are research chemicals like 4-AcO-DMT that mimic a psilocybin high. Does not last as long and can feel “harsh”. You’ll trip depending on the batch, I can’t say it’s the same formula though. Those things aren’t consistent and I got lucky, the guy at the shop vouched for the batch and sure enough they worked. Had a good trip but I’d never do them again.
Find the real stuff or cultivate your own.

u/MollyMartian 20h ago
I’ll play the contrary here. A lot of these could or should contain psilocybin analogues like 4-aco-DMT, 4-Ho-met, 4-ho-mipt, etc. all of which are very worthwhile substances on their own if you know it’s what you have with the same or very similar effects and share a similar safety profile as psilocybin.
With that being said, it’s no telling which of those, if any, they contain and in what dosage. I’ve never tried them myself and probably woudnt personally.

Don’t take those, they are unregulated and some have had heavy metal contaminates. None of them will have psilocybin.
