Hope you addressed that to people in general.

I've dried and made tee as well. Was rather soft. But it's very hard experimenting when you've no idea of potency or dosages. For me at least, even though I tried getting a good buzz and drank quite a large dose, the effects were rather mild. Noticeable and pleasant, but not too strong.

At least for one there was not a similar sort of anxiety liberty caps give. They are really potent though, so it's a bit different.

I might collect an amanita or two actually not that they should be somewhat in season. Although I might be late already.

This.

Fun thing I bumped into a few weeks ago: the guy who's credited with inventing LSD tried a bit to see how it worked and how it felt. But he had no idea just how ridiculously potent LSD is. I forgot the exact numbers, but I do recall the ballpark. So he had a Fermi-estimated 100 μg while he only needed like 10 μg for a good time, so not only did he have the first known LSD trip, he had the first known bad trip.
