So a couple days ago I harvested quite a bit of mooshes off some b+ brf cakes. I used my dehydrator at 160 F until they were cracker dry. Today, my wife and I decided to take 3gs each. While we did trip, it was very subtle. I've taken 3gs in the past that has been a lot stronger than what I cultivated. Both me and the wife thought the trip was nice but pretty weak overall. At most we experienced amplified color and kind of a glimmer around things. But it didn't feel like there was ever a peak. And things just didn't seem to take off like they have in the past.
I know this isn't a tolerance thing either, I haven't tripped in over a year.
I thought I did a pretty good job with my first grow, the mushrooms were beautiful and I'm still harvesting more off my 13 cakes. But now that I've tried them I'm afraid they're extremely minimal in potency.. I used Spore syringes and got them from a very reputable vendor.
I just have no idea what I did wrong.
Do you guys ever have issues with weak potency?
What's your average dose?

Edit: sorry I didn't realize I posted this in the wrong forum section. I can't figure out how to move it..

Hard to say for sure but I suspect that it is due to their being B+. The strain, while easily grown and perfectly fine, is known for being less potent than other types of cubensis.

I had this happen recently with some ecuadors that I grew. Took a mid-level dose and just barely felt anything. But in the past I’ve grown those and had great trips. I think it’s just genetics. I grow some other cubies in exactly the same grains, substrates, etc and have typical strength trips.

How much food in the gut? How often you been tripping?

Genetics play a huge role, especially if you aren't working with isolates. If you're using agar you're not far away from a MSS grow IMHO

I used straight up brf cakes and verm. No agar. I haven't tripped in over a year. And I had some food in my stomach that I ate from 2 and a half hours ago. My wife didn't have much in her stomach. I'm worried about taking a bigger dose later and then getting knocked on my ass. Idk how to dose next time considering 3g barely did much.

I had the same reaction to B+. Healthy vibrant fruits not much buzz. They were very photogenic though!

That's B+ for ya lol. My little journal said B+ was the same for me from 4g-6g. But I usually step up a gram at a time till I find my dose.
