If you grew some b+ mycelium, in a mycobag, after 100% colonization and it did not start to pin could you eat the cake ? If you could get an effect from it how much would you approximatley need to eat to equal your typical 5 gram b+ dose ?

[srgtm1a]

Don't eat substrate.

[letaripper]

Any explanation ?

[acriddesolation]

Choking down substrate isn't worth it in my opinion, imagine how pissed you'd be if you actually ate the entire thing and didn't catch a buzz at all :lol:... Seriously though are you really that desparate to trip? Come on now, none of us here are psilocybin junkies :special: are we? lol Listen to srgt, and don't eat teh substrate! The verm in that bag can't be all that good for you ya kno? Not bashing ya or anything, just sayin give the substrate more TLC and start some PF jars for your tripping pleasure...who knows that mycobag might end up fruting enough for you to trip x10 :teeth:

100% not worth your while...
if it's fully spawned, it should pin up eventually. just be patient!
its like this:
you could eat that whole cake, not trip, and get the glitter shits (lol)
or wait a couple weeks and eat nice fresh mushies! :D

[srgtm1a]

Any explanation ?

no.

hehe just a question that is asked a lot....don't do it....it'll kill you:eusa_naug j/k.

sorry for the lack of explanation, but I've seen this question about 1.5 million x's now hehe..

The only way this would be feasible is not to eat the cake, but to do an extraction and drinking it. Even then, the most you are going to get is a slight body buzz. In order to get a really good trip, you would have to drink A LOT. IMO, it isn't worth it at all....try to spawn the cake to some poo, or start over.

[nomoreusmc]

No don't eat the cake and here's why - There is next to no magic in it, if it doesn't pin, scape it and dunk it. Don't eat it, yes people have done it, I don't remember any one getting harmed by it but their is truely no point.

[troutlips]

get the glitter shits :D

:lol:

[thafunkyone]

man I love reading that question...every couple months....;)

[sandman]

if you want to trip real bad you could always go buy some gold spray paint....

[srgtm1a]

:lol:


Warriors....come out and play e a

[Eldeeder]

honestly, I've Im low on the mushies and want to bring someone along on a trip, I make tea out of my spent cakes... boil water, bring it to a low boil, add cut up cakes, stil till the mycelium disapears, and then filter through a cheesecloth. It has worked for myself, and a few friends, but one friend of mine has never been able to trip doing it... Can't explain that part of it...

You can get a high off the mycelium but you'll get much higher if you let it fruit the shrooms. Also, vermiculite is rock, not good for the intestines. If growing mycelium strictly to eat, use straight millet as it produces the least amount of allergic reactions in humans when compared to other grains.

Every few months? I bet we get this once a week or so, lol...

We need a sticky on top of the fungi forum:

"WHY YOU SHOULDN'T EAT YOUR SUBSTRATE"

But to be fair, most of us would be lying if we said we
never thought about it (or did it ourselves) when
starting out.

Patience is a virtue, especially in this hobby. Ideally, no one
would know that you HAVE cakes. Every "bud" that snarfs one
of your cakes is one more person who knows about your grow,
and trust me on this one:

You don't really know someone until they have something to lose,
especially in the legal arenas. A small pot bust can easily turn into
"oh, I know a guy who grows shrooms... please don't call my folks."

Someone needed to bust out this quote, so here it goes

"eating cakes is for drug addicted losers"

No offense implied of course, like sol said we all thought about it at least once.

[hogwild]

lol eating cakes may not necessarily indicate drug abuse or addiction...

Its simply unwise due to the low alkaloid content in the vegetative mycelium.

Your money is in the fruits.

[Killjoy]

I've seen grain extract teks, and done at least one succefully. But then your drinking all the Myc in a fully conlonized quart for a decent dose.

Every time I see this ?? I think of trying some kind of rice cakes. Either trying to get Myc to grow through a store bought rice cake or, just through plain rice to create an edible cake.
PF Cakes are designed to fruit not eat, but what about eating a cake grown specifically for that purpose?

[Soliver1]

"eating cakes is for drug addicted losers"

Lol - I'd forgotten about that one... was that a Hip
original, as I recall?

Growing cakes for eating doesn't make sense, as
they're almost useless until after a fruiting cycle or two.
There are mycelium teks out there, and folks who say
they've done it, but if it worked that well, we'd see
mycelium gelcaps on the market instead of shrooms.

I think this quote: "eating cakes is for drug addicted losers"
indicates psychological addiction, as you can't get physically
addicted to shrooms, but many kids are addicted to the idea
of being wasted, at any cost, on any substance,
which in many minds = loserdom.

That's a good quote...and I'm glad someone said it....I totally agree.

That's exactly how I see it.
