#[psilocybe azurescens]

[mycoblogg]

Going off the inkcap into ink ask, apart from food and ink, what else can I do/make with fungus?

here's a little list !! :-)

with artist's conk brackets, you can use the underside for drawing as - when the flesh is scraped away - there is a brown layer underneath. when it dries & hardens the art will keep for a long time :-)

mushrooms that contain psilocybin are used as psychedelic drugs - the most potent is p. azurescens.

many different fungi can be used as dyes -

many moulds are used in food manufacturing processes, for example when making cheese or yoghurt.

you can purchase mycopesticides to control pests.

yeast is a fungus that we consume every day through beer, wine, soy sauce & bread products. :-)

that's about all i've got for you, luna !! <3

how is psilocybin metabolized?

To metabolize is to breakdown a chemical to its simpler component forms for cells to use. Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound found in fungi of several genera including Psilocybe, Panaeolus, and Copelandia. Inside the body, it influences the functional molecular mechanisms of several organs, mainly the brain, kidneys, and liver. On its own psilocybin is not as effective. To produce its infamous hallucinogenic effect in the brain, it must be converted to psilocin. Psilocin is the main active molecule, which is derived from the prodrug psilocybin.

There are two ways of getting these metabolites inside the body: oral ingestion (for example, eating the "magic mushrooms") and intravenous injection. When orally ingested, the mushrooms are digested in the usual way. Eventually, the psilocybin in the mushrooms reaches the liver where it is converted to psilocin. An enzyme, alkaline phosphatase, acts on psilocybin such that its phosphate group (PO₄³⁻) is replaced with a hydroxyl group (−OH). Psilocin is further acted upon by diverse enzymes to obtain products which are either excreted through urine or contribute to other functions in hepatocytes (liver cells) as psilocin metabolites.

There is a format to convert chemical equations to sentences. Nevertheless, I firmly believe that one must have the convenience of remembering their organic chemistry without having a stroke. Behold,

psilocin + monoamine oxidase = 4-hydroxyindole-3-acetaldehyde

psilocin + glucuronosyltransferase = psilocin glucoronide (PCG)

psilocin + aldehyde reductase = 4-hydroxytryptophol

psilocin + aldehyde dehydrogenase = 4-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (4HIAA)

The fates of each of these products are an elaborate article on their own, and I will be happy to write them should you be interested. Let me know!

Now, we remember that the primary effects due to which human beings consume psilocybin-containing mushrooms are caused by psilocin in the brain. The exact step-by-step mechanism has not yet been outlined; however, general molecular interactions have been found in studies. This psychoactive compound shows an interesting resemblance to serotonin the neurotransmitter. The psilocin binds to 5-HT2A (a molecule in a cell membrane which responds specifically to serotonin i.e., a serotonin receptor) with high affinity, which is believed to be essential for hallucinogenic effect. It also binds to other receptors with varying affinities, although their significance is yet to be understood.

Psilocybin and its metabolized products are completely removed from the body after 24 hours of consumption. The kidneys take pride in detoxifying circulating blood by creating the waste product urine; psilocin consumed can be detected in blood plasma 6-8 hours after consumption. Majority of the psilocin excreted through urine is in the form of psilocin-O-glucoronide. Psilocybin that remains psilocybin is also excreted through urine by the kidneys.

Introducing psilocybin in the body through veins produces effects of similar intensity as the former method. Whereas it remains as an active compound in the blood for a shorter duration. Turton et. al. conducted an fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) study to compare the subjective experience of intravenous psilocybin injection interestingly explains how their participants’ descriptions of their experiences were influenced by the MRI scanner environment and the 1960s, when psychedelics were first introduced to western culture.

I'm somewhat jealous of places that get Psilocybe species with less deadly lookalikes like Psilocybe semilanciata I'm always 95-99% confident when I am looking a member of the azurescens/cyanescens complex in the pnw which grow sympatrically with Galerina sect. Naucoriopsis, which all test positive for deadly amatoxins vs. Smaller non-toxic members of Galerina

YOU .

HOLDS YOU LIKE THIS .

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE FUNKY LITTLE MUSHROOM .

Psilocybe azurescens, also known as azzies, and arguably the most potent magic mushroom. They get their name because they oxidise when damaged (like being cut or squeezed too hard)--their flesh turns blue!

Showing some of the blue colour.

I actually don't take these. I've done them a few times, but azzies are incredibly potent and can cause something called wood lover's paralysis, which is basically a temporary paralysis of the body while tripping. Psilocybe cyanescens is reported to do this too, but I've never tried those. Every time I've taken azzies I've ended up paralysed and while the trip is fine (and very intense) the paralysis is a mite stressful and I don't enjoy that bit.

When I was in high school I found a bunch of them and ate some, like a fucking idiot. I knew they were some species of Psilocybe. I didn't know they were azzies. I also didn't know azzies can paralyse you. I was young and stupid and it scared me shitless.

There's also lion's man mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus. Edible and I think they look neat.

There's also Mycena chlorophos. It's bioluminescent and populations can be found across the world, including Australia!

Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic prodrug compound produced by more than 200 species of fungi.

The most potent are members of the genus Psilocybe, such as P. azurescens, P. semilanceata, and P. cyanescens, but psilocybin has also been isolated from about a dozen other genera.

Psilocybin is itself biologically inactive but is quickly converted by the body to psilocin, which has mind-altering effects similar, in some aspects, to those of LSD, mescaline, and DMT.

In general, the effects include euphoria, visual and mental hallucinations, changes in perception, a distorted sense of time, and perceived spiritual experiences. It can also cause adverse reactions such as nausea and panic attacks.

In Mesoamerica, the mushrooms had long been consumed in spiritual and divinatory ceremonies before Spanish chroniclers first documented their use in the sixteenth century. In 1959, the Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann isolated the active principle psilocybin from the mushroom Psilocybe mexicana.

Hofmann's employer Sandoz marketed and sold pure psilocybin to physicians and clinicians worldwide for use in psychedelic psychotherapy. Although the increasingly restrictive drug laws of the late 1960s curbed scientific research into the effects of psilocybin and other hallucinogens, its popularity as an entheogen (spirituality-enhancing agent) grew in the next decade, owing largely to the increased availability of information on how to cultivate psilocybin mushrooms.

The intensity and duration of the effects of psilocybin are variable, depending on species or cultivar of mushrooms, dosage, individual physiology, and set and setting, as was shown in experiments led by Timothy Leary at Harvard University in the early 1960s. Once ingested, psilocybin is rapidly metabolized to psilocin, which then acts on serotonin receptors in the brain. The mind-altering effects of psilocybin typically last from two to six hours, although to individuals under the influence of psilocybin, the effects may seem to last much longer, since the drug can distort the perception of time. Possession of psilocybin-containing mushrooms has been outlawed in most countries, and it has been classified as a scheduled drug by many national drug laws.

Leary and colleagues proposed that psilocybin heightens suggestibility, making an individual more receptive to interpersonal interactions and environmental stimuli. After ingesting psilocybin, a wide range of subjective effects may be experienced: feelings of disorientation, lethargy, giddiness, euphoria, joy, and depression. Volunteers given a high dose reported feelings of significant fear and 17% experienced transient paranoia. A 2011 prospective study by Roland R. Griffiths and colleagues suggests that a single high dosage of psilocybin can cause long-term changes in the personality of its users.

Common responses include pupil dilation (93%); changes in heart rate (100%), including increases (56%), decreases (13%), and variable responses (31%); changes in blood pressure (84%), including hypotension (34%), hypertension (28%), and general instability (22%); changes in stretch reflex (86%), including increases (80%) and decreases (6%); nausea (44%); tremor (25%); and dysmetria (16%) (inability to properly direct or limit motions).

Most of the comparatively few fatal incidents reported in the literature that are associated with psychedelic mushroom usage involve the simultaneous use of other drugs, especially alcohol. Probably the most common cause of hospital admissions resulting from psychedelic mushroom usage involve "bad trips" or panic reactions, in which affected individuals become extremely anxious, confused, agitated, or disoriented. Accidents, self-injury, or suicide attempts can result from serious cases of acute psychotic episodes. Although no studies have linked psilocybin with birth defects, it is recommended that pregnant women avoid its usage.

Panic reactions can occur after consumption of psilocybin-containing mushrooms, especially if the ingestion is accidental or otherwise unexpected. Reactions characterized by violent behavior, suicidal thoughts, schizophrenia-like psychosis, and convulsions have been reported in the literature. A 2005 survey conducted in the United Kingdom found that almost a quarter of those who had used psilocybin mushrooms in the past year had experienced a panic attack. Other adverse effects less frequently reported include paranoia, confusion, prolonged derealization (disconnection from reality), and mania. Psilocybin usage can temporarily induce a state of depersonalization disorder. Usage by those with schizophrenia can induce acute psychotic states requiring hospitalization.

Well, this certainly explains a few things. Paranoia you say?

How Long Does a Shroom Trip Last? A Complete Guide

A Complete Guide

If you’re considering taking magic mushrooms (commonly known as shrooms), one of the most important questions to ask is, “How long does a shrooms trip last?” Understanding the duration of a shroom trip is key to ensuring you’re prepared and have a positive experience. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the factors that influence the length of a shrooms trip, what you can expect during the journey, and how to manage the experience safely.

What Are Shrooms?

Shrooms, also referred to as magic mushrooms, contain the active compounds psilocybin and psilocin, which cause profound changes in perception, mood, and cognition. These compounds interact with the brain’s serotonin receptors, leading to visual and auditory hallucinations, a sense of time distortion, and deep introspective thoughts. Many people use shrooms for recreational purposes, personal insight, or spiritual experiences.

How Long Does a Shrooms Trip Last?

On average, a typical shrooms trip lasts between 4 and 6 hours. However, the actual duration can vary depending on several factors, such as the dose, type of mushrooms, and the individual’s unique physiology. Let’s break down the key elements that affect how long a shrooms trip lasts.

1. Dosage

The amount of shrooms you consume has a direct impact on how long the trip lasts. Smaller doses (often around 1 gram of dried mushrooms) tend to result in a shorter, more manageable trip, often lasting about 4 to 5 hours. Larger doses, ranging from 3 grams to 5 grams or more, can extend the trip and intensify the effects. With higher doses, you may experience a trip that lasts anywhere from 6 to 8 hours.

It’s essential to be mindful of your dosage, especially if you’re new to magic mushrooms. Taking too much can lead to an overwhelming experience that may last longer than expected, and potentially result in anxiety or confusion.

2. Type of Mushrooms

There are many different species of magic mushrooms, and some have higher concentrations of psilocybin than others. The most commonly consumed variety is Psilocybe cubensis, which typically leads to a trip lasting between 4 to 6 hours. However, more potent strains, such as Psilocybe azurescens or Psilocybe cyanescens, could result in longer-lasting trips, sometimes extending beyond 6 hours.

3. Method of Consumption

How you consume magic mushrooms also affects the trip’s onset and duration. Eating dried mushrooms directly typically leads to a slower onset, with the trip peaking around 1.5 to 2 hours after ingestion and lasting 4 to 6 hours in total.

If you prepare shrooms as a tea or liquid extract, the effects may kick in faster, and the trip may be slightly shorter in duration. This is because the psilocybin is absorbed more quickly into your bloodstream when it’s dissolved in liquid form. Shroom tea may lead to a trip that lasts closer to 3 to 4 hours, with the onset occurring more quickly than when eating whole mushrooms.

4. Individual Factors

Everyone’s body reacts differently to psychedelics, so it’s important to consider personal factors that may influence the length of your trip. For example, metabolism, body weight, mental health, and previous experience with psychedelics all play a role in how long the effects of shrooms last.

Faster Metabolism: Individuals with a faster metabolism tend to feel the effects of shrooms sooner, and their trip may last for a shorter duration.

Tolerance: People who use shrooms regularly may have a higher tolerance, which could lead to a trip that feels less intense or shorter in duration.

Mental State: If you’re feeling anxious, stressed, or in an unfamiliar environment, the trip may feel longer or more intense. Conversely, being in a calm, comfortable setting can make the experience more enjoyable and manageable.

What to Expect During a Shrooms Trip

A shrooms trip is typically divided into three stages: the onset, the peak, and the comedown. Understanding these stages will help you better navigate the experience and know what to expect.

1. Onset (0-60 Minutes)

The onset of a shrooms trip usually begins around 20 to 40 minutes after ingestion. During this time, you might feel a mild shift in perception, a slight increase in energy, or a sense of euphoria. Physical sensations may change, with users describing a tingling feeling or heightened awareness of their surroundings.

In this stage, your thoughts may start to feel different, and you might notice subtle visual distortions. Expect the onset to last about 30 to 60 minutes, during which the trip will gradually intensify.

2. Peak (1-3 Hours)

The peak of the shrooms trip typically occurs 1 to 2 hours after ingestion. During this time, the effects are the most intense. Visual and auditory hallucinations are common—colors may appear brighter, patterns may move, and everyday objects may seem distorted. You might also experience changes in your thinking, emotions, and sense of time.

For many people, the peak is the most profound part of the trip. The intensity can be overwhelming, especially with higher doses, but it is also the phase where users report having deep, introspective thoughts or experiencing a sense of spiritual awakening.

3. Come Down (3-6 Hours)

After the peak, the effects of the shrooms gradually begin to subside, and you enter the comedown phase. During this phase, the intensity of the trip lessens, and you may feel more grounded. Some users report feeling tired, reflective, or even peaceful as they come down from the high.

The comedown can last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours, depending on the dose and individual factors. While the trip itself may be over, some people still experience lingering effects, such as heightened creativity or a sense of calm, for hours after the main effects have worn off.

How to Manage the Duration of a Shrooms Trip

If you’re wondering how to manage the length of your trip, here are a few helpful tips:

Start with a Low Dose: If it’s your first time using shrooms, it’s best to start with a low dose (1 gram or less) to gauge how your body reacts. Lower doses typically result in shorter trips, and you can always adjust for future experiences.

Be in a Comfortable Setting: Your environment plays a significant role in the overall experience. Being in a familiar, calm setting can help reduce anxiety and make the trip more enjoyable.

Stay Hydrated and Take Breaks: Drinking water, sitting or lying down, and having a light snack can help you feel more comfortable and hydrated during the trip. Avoiding heavy meals before your trip can also prevent nausea.

Have a Trip Sitter: If you’re new to shrooms or concerned about the experience, having a trusted trip sitter can help guide you through the journey. A sitter can provide reassurance and keep you safe in case the trip becomes overwhelming.

8. Can I control the length of my trip by adjusting the dosage?

Yes, lower doses typically lead to shorter trips, while higher doses extend the experience. Start with a smaller dose if you’re concerned about the length or intensity of the trip.

9. Can shrooms cause a trip that feels endless?

If the trip feels “endless,” it’s usually due to anxiety or confusion. Staying in a calm, familiar environment can help manage this feeling.

10. How long do the effects of shrooms last after the trip ends?

After the trip ends, residual effects may linger for a few hours, such as mild euphoria, increased creativity, or a sense of calm.

❛  he  acts  like  i  put  a  gun  to  his  head !  ❜ ( he did )

IF THAT WAS A JOKE -- jervis thinks to himself, hands making fists into the fabric of his coat -- THEN IT WASN'T MUCH OF A FUNNY ONE, WAS IT? 

STILL. there are things you say out loud, and things you keep to yourself, so he keeps his stare on the clown prince of crime -- characteristic wide, bulging eyes peeking out from underneath the brim of his hat, still timid amidst the threat of a gun barrel to his white rabbit's temple. the man's hopped up on his special blend of psilocybe azurescens and a few other curated chemicals, ensuring complete paralysis of the muscles -- only a precaution, considering the rabbit's nature -- so he sits there, slack - jawed and completely out of it. yet it's obvious there's fear in his eyes, and jervis shares the same outlook -- what would he do without the white rabbit?

he takes a moment to assess the situation at hand -- something he'd never really been good at, much more prone to YELLING FIRST and then asking questions later! -- pulling at loose threads from the lining of his suit and twisting them around his finger as he thinks. he squeezes his eyes shut and purses his lips together and clashes the myriad of will you's and won't you's that run through his head like a speeding car about to hit a wall --

and he laughs, words catching in his throat as he stammers and brings his hands up only to clasp them together and fit his fingers like keys into locks.

〝 the cheshire hasn't lost his grin! or his claws -- 〞 jervis hangs his head and finishes off the laughing fit with a cough, placing his hands in his lap. 〝 but i'll have to ask of you to unhook your paws. 〞

What Is Psilocybe Azurescens And How Do You Cultivate It?

Psilocybe azurescens is a species of psychedelic mushroom that contains psychoactive compounds such as psilocybin and psilocin. It is native to the Pacific Northwest region of North America, and is known for its high potency and distinctive appearance.

Cultivating Psilocybe azurescens mushrooms requires a specific growing environment and careful attention to detail. Here are the general steps for cultivating Psilocybe azurescens:

Obtain spores or a spore syringe: Psilocybe azurescens spores can be purchased online or obtained from a reputable supplier.

Prepare the substrate: Psilocybe azurescens mushrooms grow best on a substrate made of hardwood chips and sawdust, which should be sterilized to kill any competing microorganisms.

Inoculate the substrate: Using a spore syringe or a culture, inject the spores into the substrate and mix thoroughly. The inoculated substrate should be sealed in a container to prevent contamination and allowed to colonize for several weeks.

Prepare the fruiting chamber: Once the substrate has fully colonized, it can be transferred to a fruiting chamber. This can be a large plastic container or a specially designed grow tent, which should be kept at a consistent temperature of around 15-20°C (60-68°F) and high humidity.

Induce fruiting: To induce fruiting, the substrate should be covered with a layer of peat moss or other casing material, and the humidity and temperature should be adjusted to promote the growth of mushrooms. The fruiting process can take several weeks, and mushrooms should be harvested as they mature.

How To Identify Psilocybe Azurescens:

Psilocybe azurescens is a species of mushroom that contains the psychoactive compounds psilocybin and psilocin. Here are some features that can help you identify it:

Cap: The cap of Psilocybe azurescens is usually 3-10 cm in diameter and has a conical to convex shape when young, then flattens with age. The cap is often a caramel color when young but becomes paler as it ages, and it has a distinct margin that is often slightly turned upwards.

Gills: The gills of Psilocybe azurescens are attached to the stem and have a dark purplish-brown color when mature.

Stem: The stem of Psilocybe azurescens is usually 6-15 cm long and 0.5-1.5 cm in diameter. It is often thicker at the base and tapers towards the top. The stem is usually white or pale yellow but can have blue or greenish hues at the base.

Spore print: The spore print of Psilocybe azurescens is dark purple-brown.

Habitat: Psilocybe azurescens is usually found growing in wood chips, sawdust, or decaying wood of various hardwoods, particularly alder trees, and only grows in certain regions such as the Pacific Northwest region of North America.

Drying And Storing Psilocybe Azurescens

Drying and storing Psilocybe azurescens is an important step to preserve their potency and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria or mold. Here are some steps to follow:

Harvest the mushrooms: Harvest the mushrooms by cutting them at the base of the stem using a clean, sharp knife.

Clean the mushrooms: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove any debris or dirt from the mushrooms.

Dry the mushrooms: There are several ways to dry mushrooms, but the most common method is to place them on a wire rack or hang them upside down using string or twine in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. A fan can be used to increase airflow and speed up the drying process. It may take 2-5 days for the mushrooms to fully dry, depending on the humidity and temperature of the drying area.

Store the mushrooms: Once the mushrooms are fully dry, place them in an airtight container such as a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid or a vacuum-sealed bag. Store the container in a cool, dark, and dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Psilocybe azurescens can remain potent for up to a year if stored properly.

HOW TO MAKE MAGIC MUSHROOMS

Here are the basic steps for growing magic mushrooms, including Psilocybe azurescens:

Obtain spores of magic mushroom mycelium or a spawn bag of colonized grain.

Prepare a substrate, such as wood chips or straw, and sterilize it to kill any competing bacteria or fungi.

Inoculate the sterilized substrate with the mycelium or grain spawn.

Place the inoculated substrate in a suitable container and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap to maintain humidity.

Keep the container at the proper temperature (around 20-22°C) and humidity (around 90-95%) for mycelium growth.

Once the substrate is fully colonized with mycelium, place the container in a fruiting chamber to stimulate mushroom growth. This typically involves increasing air exchange, reducing humidity slightly, and providing indirect light.

Harvest the mushrooms once they have fully matured and dry or preserve them as desired.
