Wouldn’t be my jump off point personally but if you’re in a rush I’d block out an afternoon and start with .5g dried maximum.
Personally I’d look at purchasing some cubes (golden teachers, B+, mckennaii) and easing yourself in. Obviously I’m biased and think mine are the best but there’s tonnes of sellers out there doing 3.5g for around the $30 mark. This gives you a 1g trial and then a 2.5g threshold dose to see how you get on before experimenting with bigger doses.
With the focus being on ptsd and anxiety I wouldn’t recommend you go all in too early. Always happy to talk mushrooms so feel free to message.

Thanks for the advice. Yeah I plan on keeping the day free. If I made a thin soup, and put a gram in it, would the soup degrade it in any way if I didn't have it all in one day? Also, do you eat with shrooms? Some guides say to have a light meal beforehand, and others say that affects the amount absorbed. Thanks again

Better to do on a reasonably empty stomach. No real harm if you are doing low doses if you have eaten. Higher doses can sometimes cause nausea. Heating shrooms won’t degrade them much. But if they are dried, then just sprinkle some on some marmite toast and you’ll be golden.

Thanks!

Pans are very potent so go carefully. I'd start with 0.5-1, see how you get on. Drink with a tea, empty stomach in the morning with a free day. Once you swim, you'll know how the water feels. Then you'll be able to navigate it on your own. Remember; set your intention, set your setting and get a good sitter to be there if you need some love.

Mush love,

You can always take more. You can never take less.

Half G for a mood boost, little body buzz and nice afterglow.

sorry mate I dont know much about shrooms. you could ask spacemen or fungal-cate they seem to be knowledgeable on the shroom world...

Thanks for the info. I may do that.

Jesus😵‍💫

Whatever happened to “Make drugs legal to make them safe”?!

It's more like make them legal to allow legal money to be made, and just like every other industry once it makes money the profits steer the decisions and they will happily shit on the consumer.

If this is what happens when there is some regulation and testing, then what's it like over here with no regulation or testing? Assuming uk weed is safer is mental.

Grown here not flown here

Seriously though, Stiizy, West Coat Cure et al are products I was planning on trying when I visit CA next year so it’s a pretty concerning report, cheers for sharing

I might just take a rucksack of GVC’s fruitellas instead. Had nothing worse than a couple of lost days on them….

The actual fact is if you didn’t grow it you don’t know what’s in it 🇬🇧 or 🇺🇸 it’s a worrying thought that will drive me to quit (eventually 😸) but trust no fool.

I did try to find out about the general quality in the US when it first was legalised; saw so much complaints of mould and seeds etc. there was an interesting article about how some corporate finance types have eyeballed the weed market value, sank some money into setting up huge companies growing without having a clue or even employing knowledgable people from the industry, cutting corners all over the shop for maximum profit.
The results were as you can imagine so I am not really surprised sadly, especially on such big commercial scales, with zero love, care or skills going into it. I can’t remember where I read it but it was very interesting eye opener - if I find it later on, I’ll post it - was quite detailed. Not saying all of weed available is like that but from what I could tell, it is a big problem out there.

Been saying it for years the worst thing to happen was certain states in the US making it legal,well have you seen the chemicals they allow in food that the rest of the planet ban so cannabis was always going to get messed with the second big money got involved.
Also they are trying to drive up prices around the world by marketing their products as "the best" shit we dealers have been using that one since the 60`s and the fact is you get good and bad from everywhere and sticking it in a fancy artistic package and charging ridiculous prices does not make it any better than what you can grow personally.

What are you rambling on about?

The only reason we know about pesticides in the weed is because labs can test it, those labs only exist because of legalisation.

Plenty of people not being arrested for weed is such a horrible thing right.

Legal weed with some testing will always be better than black market where growers can do whatever the fuck they like.

Anyone arguing legalisation is a bad thing needs to go to the doctors as they are becoming senile. Legalization provides the very basic things we expect. Black market provide nothing and allow growers and dealers to do whatever they want, including spice and fake thc.

Please stop pretending legalisation is responsible, it's not, it's capitalism.

None of the strains in the 60s are around anymore, my dad was growing back then and he would laugh in your face at this comment, so much hyperbole and made up nonsense.

Oh and you get angry at packaging like a proper adult. Hahahahahahah

Unfortunately no suprise.

Need the market to demand the quality assurance required.

Unfortunately we humans are to short sited and care more about price.

With the addition of medical mj in the Uk. It.would be a great time to focus on the quality standards required. I note James Hutton institute have a natural products wing now and appear to be ramping up testing of cannabis products.

Just need the market to demand it now.

Rux if your reading this they were looking for scientists also 🤫

Two outcomes;

A) Fees eventually drop down to the level you sent with and your transaction gets confirmed, you get a refund from the borgs.

B) Two weeks pass and your transaction gets forgotten by nodes and *reappears* in the wallet you sent from.

thx for your info.

Yes just to second what others have said it seems the network is super congested this happens time to time but generally they seem to iron themselves out over a week or so.
It is rather a pain though in general for the whole community ;(

Definitely is a pain :( especially when I need my pain medication 💨 thx mate

Refund borg will take 2-3 days usually after you send the information they need to process the payment back into your btc wallet.

thx for your help

Yeah network is very congested.

Copy and paste your bitcoin transaction i.d to mempool.space to get a rough ETA

Cancelling an order just send a request to the vendor to cancel then the vendor decides if he wants to cancel or not.

After he agrees you’ll get refunded by refund borg. Might take upto 1-2 weeks

You’ll get a message from the “refund borg” asking you for Btc address so he can send the refund .

thx for your help

No problem you might get contacted in 3 days but no way are you getting refund in 3 days with the congestion.. it was 51Sats/VB now it’s more than 200Sats/VB so network fee’s just quadrupled..

Let us know if refund comes in 3 days or 2 weeks

3 wks and 2 days in and still not been refunded. Crazy huh. The sat fees keep fluctuating crazily high, feels like I’m gonna have to right off that $330

Damn no way don’t write it off .. it’s defo not lost

If you can send me your BTC transaction id and I’ll have a look

3 wks ouch. I def keep you posted thx mate

Use HodlHodl it’s a P2P platform … you just transfer money to normal peoples accounts and they send you btc.. all done under escrow.

Message me if you want me to give you a step by step tutorial.

hi thank you for your help! ive never heard of hodlhodl I will def look into this! and if you dont mind sending me a tutorial I will message you now! thank you so much! :) x

I’m with Santander and never had any problems buying bitcoin through bit panda

Im with halifax never had any issues been buying for months now with coinbase.

brilliant thank you!! x

Also look into getting a Canna card, you can just Google it. It's a scheme set up to protect medical users, you either get your GP to endorse it (fat chance) or request your husband's med record from the GP and submit it yourself. Upon seeing a medical condition that benefits from medicinal use they will issue a card that explains this. Should you have issues with the law you present your card. It doesn't necessarily solve everything but any prosecution has to be in the public interest. There's a lot of anecdotal evidence of no further action being taken even when people are growing! On that note, and not to take away from the amazing vendors and community here maybe check out autoflower seeds. Personally I prefer this site but when it comes to medicinal use it's nice to have a self sufficient fall back option. NHS needs to catch up, the herb changed my Auntie's life

Good morning! thank you so much for your in depth reply! we have looked into canna cards before and as you said GPs are a no go. (in fact us and the whole national homicide service= nhs, dont get on at all! ) but totally agree the NHS do need to Catch up (on all psychoactive substances, if Mother Nature made it available for all of us, that tells me we need to utilise it! dont get me started on the cannabinoid system we have inside us!)
I didn't realise I could access the card myself without a GP, excellent!
we used to grow our own and we used to make our own Ricky Simpson oil from the trim but due to my husbands mobility/medical issues worsening we cut our losses growing and decided to buy on little biggy, it's actually cheaper buying on here. but now because of the "powers that be" have made it a bit more difficult buying it. (wont stop me trying though!) thank you again for your advice and im really glad the magic herb has helped your auntie! sending positive vibes to you and your family. :) x

Hopefully it helps. A lot of people aren't aware you can request a copy of your medical notes. There's normally a small fee and they take a while but after that you've got the full file. Also handy if applying for certain things like insurance ( travel etc) good luck

massive help!! thank you so much! x

Open revolut online account, transfer money from your card to revolut buy btc on Revolut send to your own wallet if you have one. Or use revolut to send cash to coinbase or whoever your buying btc from.
Hope this helps.

hiya! I was looking into Revolut but as I hadn't used it before I wanted to check with the bigga's just to make sure I didn't get penalised again! but thank you very much I will make an account today! have a great day. :) x

Mobile bank Monzo aren't being soppy wet ones about crypto yet. I have no problems buying. Available on both android and apple app stores.

Buying from Coinbase myself.

I heard about monzo but they didn't have a good write up on trust pilot, so I didn't bother looking into it any further, however if they are allowing crypto and you have had no issue I will check them out too! (lots of researching and account making me for me today!) I buy from moonpay and they are alway fab for me just the stupid highstreet banks being wank! lol have a great day! :) x

No real problems for me and I use them for my salary. Get paid the day before everyone else too.

You could just use themto pay into then buy crypto from your preferred exchange.

excellent! thank you so much. (hopefully we can get our hash sorted today then!) x

Oof. Maybe not today... You have to wait for the card first and then activate it within the app. Mine arrived the next day.

I literally just came across that as I was researching! typical the hash will have to wait! lol thank you again!

Yep, Monzo, Revolut (don't use this one for normal banking though, the FCA don't like them) and Barclays seem to be playing ball. All happy with Coinbase (for now)

After what happened with me and my husbands bank, I thought to just have a "kosher" account and siphon some money into a separate bitcoin account, was tricky trying to find a good one and then I was concerned that if I had a Revolut or monzo account would my bank get weird with me sending that account money, (probs just my lil mind going into overdrive!) my new bank after the switch as said is now nationwide and the bitcoin I buy is from moonpay so I hope monzo and Revolut will be okay! thank you so much again!! :) x

They're never quite right for me with regards to length or width, so I maintain the habit of sticking 3 silver Rizlas together, like a dinosaur.

We call those thunder trumpets where I'm from 😂

Dude!! It's been SO long! Everything alright now?

Yeah man, it's been a while! Everything is a-okay these days, how are you holding up?

If it's a-okay I'm assuming you did the thing. You're a better man than I am. Everything's holding up fine, other than the fact I'm up to smoking an oz of bud a week now, roughly. Never mind the concentrates, the edibles, the RSO, the shrooms, the Lucy, etc. Still have gainful employment though!

Just finishing off my 7th thunder trumpet of the day, and I try not to get up before noon... Could roll an 8th...?

did indeed my friend! It's sure good to have it over with 😅
Can't make light of keeping a job while smoking all that my guy, I'd be way too fried to function 😂 I haven't had the time to dabble too much in the reefer since my return. Budget is about the same though, but I go for high quality occasional smokes rather than the cheap constant ones. I think it works better for me than how I was smoking before tbh 🤷‍♂️ Good to hear you're holding up bud and I'm glad to be back ❤

Well, I think I'm functional, at least!

So, this is my public statement that I'll pay for 7g of any bud you want off here, or any combination to make up that. You're an inspiration to anyone, especially anyone who has the privilege to know you, my friend. Glad you're back too!

Its all too rare to see people having an amicable and friendly interaction respect to both you good sirs, frankly the site could do with less shit housery and more of this 👌🏻

I wholeheartedly agree! How a site where you can order weed to your door can generate so much hate and anger is beyond me. Should be a hippie dippie paradise 😂

More than functional I'd say, you're a superhero!

That's way too generous my friend, your lovely words are more than enough for me ❤ And maybe a pinch of your expertise, if you'd recommend me some good value high end hash or concentrates 👀

People are making me blush a lot lately! I'm far from heroic, but thank you.

I'm sure we can do both? Vendors, hit us up! RealD had some decent hash going on... Whatever you want though, genuinely.

Gotta adming your words had me a bit red in the cheeks as well 😊
I've seen you fight for what's right and stand up to injustice, that's heroic in my book!

I think I read RealD had some isolator on the way, will definitely try to get in on that 🥳

You're a real one!

I have an incredibly focused sense of justice, and always have done; hence my offer dude.

You can keep that chit and call it in at any future date though, as long as I have a little notice.

That's a very admirable quality to have, and it's more than most!

I appreciate you greatly buddy, gonna spark a thunder trumpet now in your honour!

If you smoke your joints pure then elements and OCB’s are literally what you want! OCB’s I find easier to roll with but elements leave literally no taste or ash apart from off the gum. baffles me how people smoke with raw papers taste like cig 🤮

Recently changed from RAW black to houseplant brown rice by OCB free from all the crap

I use Raw cos they come with a pretty tin

what kind of Raws do you use?

I’m lazy so I just buy elements cones on Amazon 💀

thats the way! 🤣

Been using Smoking (black package) for years. Love them!

what do you like about them?

They're very thin and burn well. I know there may be others just as good as the ones I use, but never felt the need for change! 😅

With you there, been on blacks for years, but then then the Smoking reds came out (even thinner)!

I personally use blazy Susan's, clean burn and a thin vegan paper also. Plus you get 50! in a pack so all round great product for me. They are pink though so do a few odd looks from fellow stoners 🤣

getting all the girls with GIZEH Pink!! 😆

So I used to use the Raw Organic Hemp papers all the time...until I realised that most of the ones sold in shops are fake. I think there's only one authorised outlet that sells them online here, where you're guaranteed to get authentic ones. Smoked them for the natural ingredients etc and god knows what they put in the knock-offs that are sold everywhere in the UK. So I either get Raw Organic Hemp boxes online or OCB Premium papers in the shops, where you can verify the authenticity with a QR code!

we actually had similar issues when purchasing Elements Papers, as those are in our opinion, the best. Bought 5 boxes of knockoff papers and only noticed because the papers wouldnt stick...
fck fakes! fck fake selling vendors!

Absolutely! F**k the fakes - the Raws I was smoking were actually pretty decent knock-offs (except that I don't know what ingredients went into them!), so I didn't notice until I realised the Raw filter tips from that same shop had 'Made in China' on the back haha...so they don't even try to hide it! Then I looked up the issue online.

What I don't understand is - given just how widespread it is with Raw, including on Amazon etc - why doesn't the company do anything about it?? They must be losing shitloads of sales! And it's not like the fakes are any cheaper I think. Maybe it would be a losing battle to try to whack-a-mole the fakes...

Used to do 2 skinners, licked gum from a 3rd paper then peeled off, stuck remaining 2 papers together, less paper, but now getting older it's just the longer single skinners, blue rizla, silver ziz zag, or raws lights

Used gum from zig-zag papers to stick together 2 papers in the middle of joints, strong gum with the old zig-zags

Blue Elements. 💨

Raw Blacks or Browns, OCB's or Elements. Or if I've run out I'll stick a few greens for cigs together, only when I'm desperate mind.
So whatever my local shop has when I walk in I guess 🤣

Didnt have access to all the fancy skins available these days back in the day in lil old Ireland so it was red or green and the looks you would get even asking for papers like they knew what you were at 🤣🤣

Greens are emergency use only! 🤣

Cant teach and old dog new tricks now man im red for life 🤣🤣

I must be the only one using standard short red rizla's. Will disgust a lot of smokers but its my thing. I love the ritual of sticking 3 skins and building my joint, 20 odd years at it now, i aint changing now🤣
Which way do others roll, left to right or right to left??

Roach tip on the left, but I'm a lefty 👈🏻

I taper 3 skins by folding the parts above and below the fold, and it's always angled so that the roach goes in the left and the larger part of the slightly tapered cone is on the right.

I've never been able to roll any joint with the roach in, and I always add it at the end. I'm right handed, if this is significant in any way. I rarely fuck this up, but it's often commented on as if I'm an aberration.

I used to do that too man when i started out, roll it, stick the roach in after, its how i was shown, what does it matter man, smoke your way, i was always questioned why i roll left to right as if i was doing something wrong. What ever works is my take, we all just want get stoned 🤣😎

It all ends up as ash anyway right? 😂

Fact man 😎 and all is right with the world again once youve gotten there 🤣

I get the black pack of OCB with the roach book in. Tesco know the score...

Quite partial to a page from a cheap bible you find in hotels.

Usually a blank page in there too 😂😂

RAW Ethereals 🔥

I'm still using rizla blue king size which is what I was using back in the college days. The green card at the back never lasts two long though which results in me having to use last years Christmas cards as roaches, I knew they would come in handy one day lol.

I’ll change the price from $70 to $66 now.. 😂

And if you can wait Until Friday I’ll be doing shake promo so you’ll get it for cheaper if you can wait

RealD
Got a few oz of it and its going down a treat

Dunno if I can hang on til Friday dude, that ounce is nearly gone. Seems to have evaporated or summik

lol based! got to check you out now!

Judging by how quick he sells out and his almost flawless shake reviews, I think RealD wins this one 😂 but hey we’re not far off ! 😇

Recently I have had some of RealD’s skittlez - can confirm it’s lovely stuff plus timely dispatch + excellent stealth too, can’t ask for much better than that👌 edit: wasn’t the shake but might be good reference for overall ordering experience

Never tried Strainburys Shake but can tell you RD`s shake is bloody awesome especially the zskittles,lost count the number of times i have bought it goes great as a joint filler with other weed and is a good smoke on its own as well.

RealD's shake arrived last week and I'm impressed! fantastic valvue

That's a really tough one. Strainsburys is consistently good, but as RDs is only around occasionally, it wins for me. It is excellent

Great question.... FIGHT 2 B 👑🤴

100 bucks on RD - street fighter!👊

Can't speak about Strainsburys ( yet ) but got a zip of the Skittlezs shake 10 days ago and its cracking stuff, spot on comms replied within the hour, very few twigs, 2gms of little buds ( I picked them out with tweezers out of curiosity)stealth great and the added bonus of an extra 3gms I'm happy to put my tick in the box for RealD.

I do like RealID’s shake, but for consistency of availability I have to go with Strainsburys 😁

Try my shake and brick weed the cheapest on here ;)

quality stuff :)

I've had both. I had the zSkittlez. Friend had strainburys. Id go zSkittlez every time.

I clearly got a bad deal on the Skittlezs, got an oz of brown weed which I won't consider putting in my lungs - doesn't smell right either

Why didn’t you contact me and let me know then?? 🤦‍♀️

I'm past caring about bad deals on LB, if it was proper weed I was out of pocket on I'd make a fuss, but when it comes to shake you win some you lose some. bad luck, fuck it

Neither 🤮 Pure all the way

Get a bong smoke it pure or if you really want a joint professor herb tobacco replacement burns decent. After about 2 months of no baccy, high is nice and clean lasts longer, no urge to smoke for the want of nicotine and you will probably save money on bud/hash in the long run

American spirit rolling tobacco (its organic), get in sainsburys tesco ect.
perfect dryness and tastes very nice.
quite expensive tho, 22-23 quid for 30g.

Saw an earlier post of yours about American Spirit and got some of the yellow. It's great. Thank you for the reminder - I used to smoke American Spirit cigarettes and completely forgot they do rolling baccy too. Been using inferior tobacco for ages.

Fantastic, happy trails Joe!😁👊❤️

Hand rolling baccy gone up from 22 November by 15 percent

American spirit yellow or blue? Which is the lightest

I'm smoking the yellow one currently (it's the lighter one of the two) and it's really good. American Spirit all the way, as BBDoom says - in fact, I'd been using Cutters Choice for a while and another earlier post of BBDoom's made me remember about American Spirit and just how good it is (so thanks for that mate!). No chemicals and perfect level of dryness for bud as he said.
