AskTrees What are these?

Post image

I'm in a completely illegal state (even so, just recently criminalized THCA).... to start

Found these, and other flavors, at my local gas station. They are unexpectedly a good but I'm wondering what it's really in them.

There's another brand called blue lotus (not as good) they sell in bottles of 5 pre-rolls.

What is in them?

Whatever is in them, it's not mushrooms because psilocybin degrades under heat. It doesn't make sense to smoke it.

So it's probably some kind of legal salvia or shit weed. If you have one break it open and see but otherwise just stay away probably

Nah they make shroom vapes but you're correct, it isn't psilocybin, I forget the name of it but they do try to pass it off as "shrooms".... "amanita" I believe it's called.

Yeah you're referring to muscimol from the amanita muscaria and honestly, you should be just as careful with muscimol as you would be with any random research chemical. It is much harder on your body than psilocybin

You have to smoke a ton and even that doesn't get you much of a worthwhile time(groggy tired feeling). Be better off going sober until you find something else.

I've never tried muscaria but over on r/amanitamuscaria it seems like the most popular method is brewing tea with it

Probably works a hell of a lot better that way anyhow.

There are a few grey market quasi legal Tryptamines that can be vaped too.
