Sclerotia - Philosopher's stones "Mexicana A."
This strain grows in the subtropical regions of Mexico, and has been found in Guatemala as well. Psilocybe mexicana A. has the ability to form sclerotia beneath the mushroom. These small lumps, sometimes referred to as "Philosopher's stones", contain very high concentrations of psilocybin, a psychedelic with strong visual effects.
The shapes and sizes of truffles vary, but they all produce similar effects. What determines the nature of the experience are the environment you are in, the people you are with, and of course the dosage.
PLEASE NOTE: To Greece this product can only be shipped with EXPRESS, otherwise fresh sclerotia may arrive inedible.
Sclerotia trip effects
After ten minutes to one hour you will start to notice the first effects, seeing and hearing things more intensely. You'll start to notice a rapid change in the perception of ordinary reality, seeing yourself and your environment from a new perspective. This often results in hilarious insights and a good deal of laughter. There may also be a sense of confusion, when your mind and intellect can no longer grasp what's going on. As the outer confusion intensifies, the inner visions (best seen in a dark or dimly lit room) become clearer.
The nature of the trip depends upon the person taking the sclerotia and the mood or state of mind this person is in. Although one may experience similar effects, each experience will still be unique and very personal.
The sclerotia trip takes about 6 hours, coming in waves, and wears down gradually.
The active component in the sclerotia is psilocybin, a tryptamine that is chemically similar to the human neurotransmitter DMT (dimethyltryptamine). DMT is one of the strongest visionary psychedelics, which occurs abundantly in nature (trees, grasses etc.) and is easily broken down by the body's MAO enzymes, leaving no toxic byproducts behind. Although the body can handle psilocybin quite well, the mind can get quite confused, which is why truffles must be taken in a safe, familiar environment, preferably with a sober and experienced sitter nearby.
Preparing sclerotia
These are fresh truffles and must be kept in the refrigerator. Take 5 to 9 grams for a normal trip and 10 to 15 grams for a strong trip. First time users are advised to take a maximum of 10 grams. It's best to take sclerotia on an empty stomach.
Please note: it is possible that during the shipping process the sclerotia dry a little bit. This decreases their weight. But don't worry: the truffles will be just as strong as the dosage mentioned on the package.
The most common and efficient way to use truffles is to eat them, on an empty stomach. Sometimes this gives a heavy feeling in the stomach, which can be a disturbing sensation while tripping. Although psilocybin is sensitive to heating, it's possible to make truffle tea, which is more tasty and easy to digest than fresh or dried truffles. Boil some water, turn the heat down and add the (shredded) truffles. Let them boil softly for about 20 minutes. You can then add a little honey or sugar and drink the tea. Another method is to simply poor some very hot water on the truffles, let it soak for about 10 minutes, and then repeat the procedure with new hot water.
It's of no use taking sclerotia two days in a row, because your body immediately builds up a tolerance for psilocybin. You must wait at least three or four days before you can do sclerotia again. Most users wait a couple of weeks or months before they plan their next trip.

“one of a kind:
split 30 to 7.5 for 4 people.
at first we where only laughing, then it grew more and more intense, and whilst some of my friends ended up having an intense video game time, my other friend and me realized that the cealing was insanely interesting, our lamp moved in and out of place, and at times we felt like being inside the tv...
it was funny also to watch my friends as the effects hit them since they started getting the greatest ideas ever, at the same time the rest was being "eaten by his blanket"(?)
all in all the best high ive ever had without question, will def. order more
p.S. thanks azarius for the extra present package that was sent along with my orders.”

“After having tried truffles a couple of times and being somewhat disappointed at their potency compared to mushrooms, me and 2 friends decided to give a recipe we found online a go. The recipe is called the lemon tag and means putting mushrooms or truffles in some lemon juice and leaving it for about 20 minutes. We filled the glass up with hot water and slowly drank the sour juice. The first effects were already noticeable after 20 minutes and after about an hour our trip peaked and stayed at the peak for about 3 hours. After that the effects slowly started wearing off. During the peak we all laid on a bed or couch, hardly able to move and we completely lost the awareness of our bodies. Although we hardly moved we all had the feeling of floating through the room. Once we regained awareness of our bodies still during the peak, we started walking around the house amazed at the intensely colourful hallucinations. This is by far the most intensive trip I have ever had on mushrooms or truffles. What I found most bizarre is how dissociative mushrooms or truffles can be in high dosages. At times I was just on the edge of having a bad trip, but than I was able to tell myself that things weren’t real and that it would get back to normal after some hours. All in all a wonderful experience, but definitely not for inexperienced trippers! So if you want to have a full on mushroom trip, the lemon tag is a good way to go, but be careful with the dose people.”
