Mushrooms – Treasure Coast

Treasure Coast is a Psilocybe cubensis mushroom named after a stretch of Atlantic Coast in Florida. The origins of this shroom are mostly unknown, but most assume it was in the location of its namesake, an area famous for shipwrecks where divers still find treasure. The golden caps of this cube have since become an esteemed strain in the online mushroom community and Treasure Coast is a popular cultivar.

Treasure Coast has a reputation as a pretty fun and light strain, but when taking psilocybin mushrooms of any kind, one needs to be ready to face challenges as well. Mushrooms have a way of turning up the volume of life. Giggles and visual distortions are part of the program, but so are good, bad, and complicated emotional aspects of our lives we may be avoiding. The mushroom experience can come with physical sensations too, like changes to heart rate, nausea, shaking, sweating, chills, and in some cases, vomiting.

That means that if you know your dose, then you’ll want to start lower than what you usually take. If you’ve never had magic mushrooms before, then here’s a general dosage chart:

.25 grams (g) for a threshold dose (should feel something)
.25-1g for a light dose (recreational dose)
1-2.5g for a medium dose (recreational dose)
5-5g for a strong dose (recreational to spiritual dose)
5g+ for a heavy dose (spiritual dose)
