If you are new to the shroom experience, you may want to start with a low dose of 0.8 – 1 gram. At this dosage level, you will experience a very subtle high on par with smoking weed.

When you are ready to step up to the next level, try a 1 – 1.5-gram dose of dried mushrooms. You may experience some visual or auditory hallucinations at this dosage level and an increase in lightness and euphoria.

If micro-dosing is more your speed, you can micro-dose shrooms using 0.2 – 0.5 grams of dried mushrooms every 2-3 days as part of your daily routine. Micro-dosing is used to help increase creative flow and decrease anxiety. You won’t notice much in the way of hallucinations using mushrooms with this method. 

Pay attention to dosage recommendations, and remember that shrooms can affect different people in different ways. For more of a traditional psychedelic trip, you may want a dosage of 1.5-3 grams. You will start to experience hallucinations, patterns, fractals, and distorted depth perception at this dosage level.

If you are an experienced user, a dosage of 3-5 grams could be more your speed. This dosage level is not for beginners. Hallucinations will be intense, and you will likely lose your grasp on reality. While this type of experience may be mind-altering and positive for some, it can also be terrifying for others, especially if they have not experienced a trip that intense before.
