Picking Which Strain to Grow
While there is an overwhelming amount of strains and information about what strains are best for what we believe it is best to start with looking at the potency of the mushrooms. Here at DSC we do get all of our strains lab tested for harm reduction purposes. For proper dosing it is easier to stick with a strain that is anywhere from 9mg/g-11mg/g of psilocybin/psilosin. It is easier to calculate your dose when it is close to 10mg/g and also know your strain is not overly potent. Some strains that are very popular for microdosing are Penis Envy 6, Stargazer, Jedi Mind F*ck, Hillbilly and Golden Teacher. Although there is a lot of information out there stating certain strains will feel a certin way, everyone reacts different so try them out to see what you think and how you feel mentally and physically.
Dosing
A normal microdose is .1 to .5 of a gram. When choosing what dose is best for you, it is important to consider your body weight and sensitivity. Most people who are smaller will most likely take a smaller dose. We always recommend starting low. A good starting amount is .1 of a gram. If you see enhanced color or have any other noticeable effects, your dose is too high. You should not feel any prominent physical effects when microdosing. Please remember, you can build a tolerance. We recommend not microdosing everyday. We like to microdose monday through friday and take the weekends off, but some people do three days on and two days off, every other day, two days on one day off. It is important to play around with what regiment is best for you.
Dehydrating Your
Mushrooms
Properly dehydrating your magic mushrooms is essential for extended storage and potent effects. We like to use a dehydrator, this is the best way to ensure that your mushrooms are fully dried and ready for storage. We recommend drying at a temperature of 130 and are cracker dry.
If you are in a dry environment like Colorado it is possible to dry your mushrooms by laying them out on a piece of cardboard with a small fan.
