Beginner- where do I start?

Looking to learn what I can about home grow kits and the basics for a safe/fun grow experience. Looking to experience my first “natural” trip. I’ve tried commercial gummies from TRE house and didn’t like the idea of not knowing exactly what I was consuming.

Outside of here, and leads on videos,books, etc.

Safe source for a grow kit?

TIA

Smoking psilocybin?

DMT can be smoked, is there any way to smoke extracted psilocybin for a faster come up and potentially shorter trip?

took 2 and a half stems, slept for 3 hours after

the come up was really peaceful and i just closed my eyes, it probably didn’t help that i was already tired, but i assume taking more wouldn’t boost the trip again, right? i’m just sorta sad i slept through it when i could tell after waking up how great it was.

I finally experienced ego death

I'vev tripped dozens of times in my life and never really understood what "ego death" actually was. It's on is those things you can't know until it happens.

I took way too much of the shrooms I just grew. I took 3 grams and waited an hour or so and didn't feel much, so I took another gram and a half because I thought maybe that strain wasn't as strong as I hoped.

They were strong. I've never tripped harder in my life. I was actually fighting it, I tried to throw up and couldn't, I tried to eat something and couldn't. I knew I made a mistake, eating more. I was having a bad trip, something I haven't had since I was 16.

I was losing the fight to stay tethered to reality and I finally just gave in and let it happen. I was terrified.

I lost my vision and everything became this abstract geometric existence. It's hard to explain. Eyes open, eyes shut, it didn't matter I couldn't escape it and for a few minutes there I was revealed the fundamental fabric of the universe.

So I think this was ego death. I wasn't me. Everything was me and I was everything. I can't explain it but it was profound.

I lost respect and reverence for the sacred mushrooms over the years and they decided to put me in my place.

I'm finally coming down enough to feel half way normal and can write this.

Do my shrooms have mold?

I’ve grown these shrooms for about 2 weeks now, 2 days ago I saw them and they were really normal, but today they look as if they have become infected, do my shrooms have mold? Is that possible? If so, what can I do to make them edible, and how can I prevent this to ever happen again. Thanks in advance <3

ER Visit?

Good morning, last Thursday my friends and I decided to do some psilo shrooms. It was my first time trying them and made a huge mistake of not thinking I was feeling them soon enough so my friend gave me more. This was also her first experience so it's hard to say how much I was given as they were in capsules .What followed was HOURS of being messed up. Wasn't necessarily a bad trip until night time when I became extremely hot and dehydrated, yacking. Etc. We read that antipsychotics would stop the trip and happened to have some so I took some. Now, days later I'm still feeling sick. Diarrhea ,Unable to eat, thirsty,going pee a lot, can't sleep, feeling heavy and weak. After googling my Symptoms (I know i know) I'm honestly worried I did some damage to my kidneys. Any thoughts? Would an ER trip be worth the clear embarrassment?

What positive effects have you found with microdosing? I've just started (with a tincture) today

I've just started microdosing with a tincture. I'm not quite sure what the dosage is to be honest, it's from a reputable individual, but it's specifically for microdosing.

I'm interested in what positive effects others have experienced.

Why did 10g of truffles exploded into full on psychedelic experience?

Last year in Amsterdam I had 10g of mild truffles from one of those shops (this one looks the most legit). I took them on a mostly empty stomach and after some time felt a bit high and light and everything was just funny but no visuals whatsoever.

about 2-3 hours later, I smoked some weed (not sure exactly what type) and very shortly after I had a powerful and intense psychedelic experience which lasted about 3-4 hours. It came out of nowhere and took me a minute to realise I was in the dream world, tbh.

I heard someone from the group saying "It must be the weed that triggered it".
I still don't know what went "wrong". Have you ever experienced anything like that? What do you guys think happened?

Nature showed me an eternal Garden of Eden. It was like I manifested it in me and then there I was.

Walked through the creation of the New Eden and found how to talk to the mycelium of life. I saw the malkezedic ( misspelled) in a waking green and found the key to sitting or not moving is. Complete identity of mine separated from body and soul and inside is another eye. It is like a vibration sonar that chemically communicates through our glands. If we harness this with technology and pheromones. I believe we can program nature to listen to our dominion. Imagine a crosswalk and prophet for nature. I just became an environmentalist with rebellion growing to overthrow the dominator culture. They/ it keeps us programmed and not disconnected like Buddhism. Impossible for the mind to grow amid contamination. It’s just noise and anxiety. But to go in and have your brain remember and forget and add the moments between the brain resetting every 8 minutes. It’s like untieing a form of thinking that no longer connects to my painting.

URGENT HELP: Ate a few grams of PE, didn't chew enough, been wanting to vomit for 14+ hours.. When is it an urgent concern?!

I am wretching as we speak. I'm so sad and mad at myself... I always lemon tek... I don't know why I decided to half ass chew my dried PE. I knew something was wrong QUICK and it has not stopped!

Ginger, chicken stock, forced vomit numerous times, nothing is stopping this insane nausea. I'm completely sober now and just sad :(

Is this just the unfortunate outcome I have to get through, or is something majorly wrong?

Am I cooked?

Not sure if mold. Forgot about a grow bag for a few months and she looks like this. Was waiting to open after the whole bag was white like institutions say... I'm new to this, sorry 😅

Why the age limit? What are actual negative affects of psilocybin consumption in brain development age?

I would love to get people's thoughts on this topic. From what I have gathered, the age limit for psychedelic use (most people advocating for use after the age of 25) is pushed for mainly for ethical reasons and anecdotal evidence.

The bulk of research behind the neurological effects of psilocybin seem to contradict the popular belief that psilocybin use harms brain development. Science instead seems to say that neural plasticity is increased, neural protection to oxidation and aging is increased, and even evidence for actual brain GROWTH? It is obviously incredibly unethical to research this because it would involve administering drugs to minors and observing the effects and thus causing skepticism for people to advocate for use of psilocybin for people younger than the age of 25.

However, there are cultures that give mushrooms and ayahuasca to their children/adolescents and that it is significant for their growth into adulthood. The research we do have seems to SUPPORT this?

Obviously, the psychedelic experience is one of profound intensity and most definitely requires maturity, but why should use among younger users be looked down upon if used properly and if the benefits seem to greatly outweigh the downsides?

I would love people's thoughts on this topic please

EDIT: This is purely for discussion about the topic and I am looking for good reasons to dissuade younger people from use and to wait!
