Amanita Research Forum

I just found some great Amanitas today and was wondering if there was a way that I could do a spore print and get some of those spores out into the wild where they could do the most good. Should I just spore print onto a paper towel and then go bury that near some trees? Any techniques that have be...

Accidental discovery, mixing amanita with lactic acid creates an entirely unique, more potent and classicaly psychedelic experience at low to medium recreational dosages.

I just made yogurt using raw milk on Friday I let it ferment for 48 hours. Not too sure if it turned out correctly yet or not. I took one tablespoon last night before bed. And it did give me a very comfortable feeling just like the tea does when I microdose with that. Plan on doing two tablespoons ...
