There are two guides you can read on our website that should inform you sufficiently on this matter which you can find below.

How to consume Truffles: Link

  1. Drink some water or eat some soup prior to eating the truffles.
  2. Eat the truffles. Chew well and make sure you crunch them down properly.
  3. Get comfortable and wait for the effects to kick in. You might get some stomach aches, but that’s normal. In roughly 45 minutes the first  effects should become noticeable.
  4. Don’t fight what you see, just go with the flow and stay in a calm and comfortable mental state.

Don’t take truffles more than once a week as you will build up an immunity. Additionally, we can’t guarantee that taking truffles is good for your health, so be careful.

Microdosing

As the effects of magic truffles depends greatly on the person’s physique and mental state. We can’t really tell you how much you should be taking. So, what you can do is start off with a very small amount and write down what you feel or how it is effecting you. Slowly increase the dosage and keep track on what changes. Like this you will be able to find the perfect amount for you.

Health Risks

This generally counts for everything in life, but If you do things responsibly, you won’t have to worry about a thing. Don’t let any negative emotions get to you, relax and don’t stress. Being filled with bad emotions will only increase the risks of a bad trip. Just follow your intuition and your hart!

Having said that, there are a few things you have to know about using truffles and shrooms. If you have a documented history of mental illnesses, taking psychoactive will make your condition worse than they already are. Accurate documentation regarding these substances is lacking, so please take these with caution, even though they are considered the safest to use.

In a uncontrolled settings, the user could get engaged in reckless behaviors, such as driving, self harm or running naked over the street. That is why a “Sitter” is recommended to be with you at all times during the 3-6 hours you are tripping. Things you experience during good or bad trips can be frightening and mind altering, completely changing the way you perceive reality, so take with care and realize this can be for the good, but also for the bad.

Having a bad trip can lead to you developing Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder or also known as “flashbacks”. This condition will make you recall your bad experience for a long time (anything to a few months to a few years).

Are Magic Truffles legal?

Lucky for you and me they are! You see, truffles are not classified as mushrooms, so totally legal here in the Netherlands. Having said that, the regulations change regularly, so its impossible for us to keep track on all the countries restrictions. So its up to you to be up to date on your own countries regulations on the possessions and consumption of the purchased goods.

What is the shelf life of Growkits?

Our kits can be kept in a refrigerator for about 2 months. Once they have fully matured and harvested, you can keep them in a fridge for another 3 days.

How do you use the growkits?

Our Easy-growkits aren’t called easy for nothing. Read our instructions below and you should not run into any problems!

My mushrooms lost some spores?

This means you harvested to late. You know your mushrooms have lost some spoors when you see the mycelium covered in a blackish purple powder. Your mushrooms are still edible, but you won’t be able to get another flush from your growkit.

How do I know my growkit is contaminated?

First of all, contamination is caused by touching the growkit with dirty hands or if it comes in contact with contaminated air. That is why it is important to either wear surgical gloves or wash your hands properly before handling your grow kit. Also make sure your room is clean and the place you are working on is disinfected.

You know your kit is possibly infected when your mycelium, which should be white, is another color or your kit smells really bad.

If your kit has a blue or green color, they mycelium has been bruised. This means its not contaminated and you should be able to grow mushrooms without any problems. A light yellow color indicates your kit is getting old. You should start the growing process as soon as possible as if you still want a normal yield.

If you are growing multiple kits in one area, if you notice one is infected, remove it immediately as your other kits are then at risk of being contaminated as well.
