I grind mine to ~dust and pack them in 0.3 g gelatine capsules - no taste and 1 is just enough for microdosing.



you microdose mushrooms?? Interesting. Just for recreation when you want to relax or do you ever do it during the day?


I'm on a break but I used to take them for the general enhancing effect and going deeper into meditation. Sometimes during day even in public places, which was a big mistake in the generally nervous/anxious place I was in life. Perhaps I got too arrogant.

edit: then again a capsule or two and a remote cabin could be just what I need to reset from the upheaval in my mind..


Do you get any meaningful work benefit from a single 0.3g capsule? That sounds low even for a microdose.


It is possible I'm more sensitive to its effects for various reasons but ime one capsule starts working in 30-45 minutes and I get a noticeable effect affecting mood and bodily sensations. 1 capsule certainly gets me more in touch with the internal world when meditating.

I don't know how much one should talk about this stuff on open forums but it certainly can be a shortcut to achieving or visiting some powerful states of experience, which may not be always be or seem positive at least during, so Ymmv and be safe.


I've microdosed mushrooms maybe a dozen times and generally the last thing I want to do is work. Would not recommend to anyone looking for a productivity boost.

With that said, they're a great stress reliever.
