    How long compared to eating does tea last.

    Should be the same, no?

    I think the duration would be the same, possibly a little shorter (not much), but the real difference would be the onset. Drinking it would make the trip kick in within 2-5 minutes of swallowing.

    The duration will be the same, 3-8 hours depending on dosage.

    I don't think a tea would make the onset that much shorter, I'd say more like 5-10 minutes.

    5-10 minutes is much shorter than 20 minutes - 2 hours

    The tea is basically liquid shrooms so the onset would be a lot quicker. It's all hitting you at once too so it might be a little shorter. I like to eat them though that way you know you're getting every little bit of psilocin.

    Yeah,

    Eating them isn't even as bad as some people say. They just taste like chewy dirt to me. Easy to put down with a glass of water even. To me they don't even really taste like mushrooms. At least the ones around here don't. I'll see when I grow some P. azurenscens.

    Yeah I was surprised when I first ate them, they don't taste like the mushrooms you find on pizza or anything like that. They taste kinda like you're eating a twig, but with a hint of chocolate or something.

    Maybe it's cooking mushrooms that gives them that fimiliar taste. I've never eaten a raw mushroom other than magic ones.

    Yea, the first time I ate mushrooms, I was a bit surprised as well. They sorta tasted like cardboard, which didn't really bother me at all.

    However, nowadays the taste really bothers me. I'm not sure if it's just in my mind, or if they actually do taste different in some way from the first time.

    Some of the shrooms i've eaten have been terrible, like hard, flaky turds. But some i've had have tasted almost like nothing. i've had the terrible ones far more, so i usually make tea from them. psilocybin is very soluble in hot water, so the loss is very minimal, and there's no nasty flavor if you throw in a bag of tea and some honey :)

    i've noticed a slight decrease in duration if you chug the tea, but drinking it over a half hour or so eliminates that effect.

    Same here. I think its in our minds and in the mushroom, psilocybin has a very powerful grip, naturally the taste of where it comes from reflects that :cheers2: If Im with people and cant make a tea, I just eat them down fast as possible and drink lots of cola to mask the taste. The taste often lingers for the whole trip as well, which kind of sucks.
    Never puked from them though, I count myself lucky. Lots of pain, but never had the urge to let it out, even when it felt like stabbing pains.

    The first time I ever smelled shrooms, they smelled like chocolate.
    No one else has ever smelled the same thing in them though, at least not that I've heard of.

    Back when I was growing a little bit of mushrooms I would always eat a little one fresh from each flush. Cause fresh I think they taste quite good. They also smell really good.

    Atleast my stropharia cubensis on grain did. I dunno about other strains. But just smelling them made me want to eat them, they smelled like the most delicious fungus ever. The taste I preffered to your store bought mushroom. I would totally chop them up and cook with them normally.
