i have a few mushrooms left over, maybe 1.5 grams, but i don't know when i can get more so i've been looking into potentiating them. i know that MAOI's can potentiate mushrooms, and both nutmeg and passion flower have mild MAO inhibiting properties. is it enough to have a noticeable effect on the mushrooms? has anyone tried this?
Use Passion Flower, Nutmeg is nasty! Yeah, that should work just make sure you know what you're doing first as messing with MAOIs can be dangerous!
i actually took 1 1/2 nuts a few days ago and enjoyed it a lot. i didn't get any unpleasant side effects (nausea, dizziness panic, etc.) but i got the sedative effect; i was more calm the entire day than i ever remember being. i think that this would help keep me calm during the trip, but the MAOI factor would make the mushrooms more intense. i've haven't followed any restrictions while using passionflower tea or nutmeg, and i've been fine. however, if i combine these two, should i be more careful about my diet, etc?
i'm reading up on st johns wort, is that a more powerful MAOI? i was planning a trip tomorrow but i don't have very much to work with (1.2 grams of mushrooms), so i'd like an MAOI to give it a boost.
Use lemon juice! Chop shrooms finely, soak in lemon juice for 20 min, and drink the slurry! This will make your strip stronger but shorter. Not advised for first time trippers.
hmm i actually took a formula called "serenity" with kava kava, passionflower, damiana, some other stuff too. and 1.4 grams of mushrooms. it was a great experience, and i think the mushrooms were potentiated a bit. i was seeing patterns, everything had that soft "inner glow", and colors were extremely enhanced. a few tracers too. i think the serenity formula was great with the mushrooms, it also helped with the anxiety, but didn't fog my mind like benzo's or alcohol would. still, though, i would have liked the trip to be a lot stronger. thanks for that lemon juice advice, i'll have to try that sometime.
wtf lol anyways yeah st johns wort is actually ferociously powerful for potentiating drugs. I often drink it alongside a marijuana session and the difference it makes will blow you away. i can't even imagine what bomb shrooms + sja would do. also the lemon tek is the way to go. next time i will combine both.
Be careful, wikipedia says st johns wart + LSD can lead to serotonin syndrome http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_John's_wort#Pharmacodynamic_interactions
I prefer Harmine in freebase form as a potentiator. 150 mg oral then 50 mg smoked just as the peak comes on.
