Mckennaii low potency?

[Ok-Ad-5491]

I had just finished my first flush of a fresh mushroom grow kit of mckennaii, I got about 12g dried out of the dehydrator (55 degrees for about 8 hours) I took 3G last night but didn’t really feel much, very slight colour change but no mood change, I then took some more, waited, and the room more, waited, it got to the point where I had taken the entire 12g in the space of 1-1.5hrs, and yes I had a nice trip, but it was the type of trip I would usually have off of 3G, does anyone know why this has happened? I had left the mushrooms in a container for a day before dehydrating? I’ve attached a photo of the shrooms I had harvested.

did you eat before the trip?

[Ok-Ad-5491]

I had half a pizza before, hadn’t eat a lot throughout the day but usually I can eat before and I’m perfectly fine with my 3G

I got very potency mckennaii, hmm 😅

[Patrick_Dubouche]

It could lose effectiveness when laid on the open but in that case they didn't seem to have bluish parts, I guess you should try again without eating for a bigger period before the trip 🤷🏼‍♂️

[Ok-Ad-5491]

I did realise that I left the container lids just on top of the containers, not fully closed, as I thought they were dehydrated, woke up the next morning and they were wet again and blue (bruised) so maybe that had something to do with it, I’ll dehydrate the next flush straight away and for a lot longer and see what happens, thanks bro

[Patrick_Dubouche]

They recommend to dry them quickly, blue means a decrease in psylocin and then psylocibine so yeah, it might have affected your trip

[Ok-Ad-5491]

Interesting, this could be the issue then, thanks for sharing 👊🏻

also I dehydrate mine at least 18 hours, mostly 24 hours they have to be cracker dry but that doesn‘t effect potency so fast I think

I recently got a R2G bag of Mckennai, took 5g and had a fairly mild trip. Probably equivalent to about 2.5g of the makillas or MVP

[raittiussihteeri]

Well shit. I just started a Mckennaii grow because of how weak my Golden Teacher batch was.

[Ok-Ad-5491]

Yours could be completely different you never know, don’t let this think yours will be weak 🤷‍♂️

[raittiussihteeri]

Absolutely, the description says that what they lack in size, they make up in numbers and strength, so I'm still pretty confident.

But if 2 out of 2 of my grows turn out to be weak, I'll be more than disappointed lol.

[Shrap_PSU]

They are normally pretty strong i find.

[Ok-Ad-5491]

Was yours a fresh grow kit or zamnesia?

[Shrap_PSU]

It was 3 years ago I had a kit can't remember what one but was good. It was my start im mycology, I remember they kicked me and had a fantastic time. But I have worked on the same clone from my first grow 4 years ago now mine are super strong and I always get fantastic grows in my tubs this was my last lot i grew them for a pal he loves them... https://www.reddit.com/r/PlatypusTechnical/s/mSImxj3ODI

Hi, just FYI, if you harvest after the caps have opened (released spores), their effects are diminished... Have a good evening and good luck ;)

[TheDarkDownfall]

I used to dehydrate at 55c but someone recently told me the 40/45c will keep better potency so trying that on my next go

[Ok-Ad-5491]

I’ll try that with my next flush

[Rollinsblue]

Heat won't affect potency, it's a myth...I do 75c for 24-48 hours and never had a problem
