This question pops up every few months... mycelium DOES have some goodies in it,
but if you're getting fruits, it'd be pointless to consume it, not to mention quite nasty.
I've never seen Hoffman at this site, or others, and owning a patent doesn't mean
that it works... if you have a full-blown chem lab and a degree, you could probably
pull it off, but then if you had that, you wouldn't be posting here.
"I do know that if you put cranberry juice and ascorbic acid crystals into a fully colonized jar and drink it, you trip. In fact, if it is a whole quart jar of colonized grain, you get the equivalent of a gram or two dry as far as a trip. If there is no psylosin/psylocybin present, how is this possible?"
Don't believe everything that you breathe - if that worked so well, everyone would
grow mycelium instead of fruits... myc is EASY to get, it's the fruiting that's difficult.
While you can get some effects from
spent mycelium, if it's already spent, what's
the point in consuming ten handfuls of colonized grain, unless you really need a
colon-blow?
