Mush Magic Truffle Pajaritos – 15 grams

1. Mush Magic Truffle Pajaritos — 15 grams

Fifteen grams of fresh Pajaritos sclerotia — a cultivated variety of Psilocybe mexicana, and one of the gentler options in the Mush Magic range. Pajaritos is Spanish for little birds.

The reported character is sociable and light: creativity, mild euphoria, a sense of connection with the people around you, and a tendency towards philosophical conversation rather than inward silence. It suits company.

Onset runs 30 to 60 minutes with the peak at 60 to 90, and the whole thing subsides after about six hours. It also keeps better than most of the range — two to three months refrigerated rather than weeks.

3. Working out a dose

This is the strain we would give a proper dosage walkthrough on, because its gentleness makes it the sensible place to learn the method. The method matters more than any single number:

1. Decide what you are aiming for before you weigh anything. A microdose, a light social evening, or a full experience are three different intentions and they need deciding sober.
2. Take the low end of that band on a new pack. Five grams if you are aiming at the 5 to 7.5 g starter range. Alkaloid content varies threefold between packs and you do not yet know this one.
3. Weigh it on a scale that reads to 0.1 g. Not a spoon, not by eye, not by counting sclerotia.
4. Seal and refrigerate the rest before you begin. Physically out of the room is better still.
5. Adjust by small increments on later occasions — a gram at a time, from the same pack, with a note of what happened.

3.1 Preparing it

Pajaritos’ longer shelf life — two to three months refrigerated rather than the four to six weeks most of the range manages — makes it a more forgiving pack to own if you are working through it slowly and carefully rather than in one session.

4. Preparation and use

4.1 Getting it right

• Measure it. A 0.1 g scale, every time. Sclerotia sizes vary and estimating is how people double a dose by accident.
• Something light beforehand, two or three hours ahead.
• Thorough chewing or a fifteen-minute steep in hot water. Boiling water degrades psilocybin, so keep it off the boil.
• Ninety minutes minimum before more. Non-negotiable.
• Nothing in the diary for the next six hours or the evening after.

4.2 Setting

• Have a sober sitter present. Someone who stays sober, stays in the room and knows what you have taken.
• Sit or lie down before you start. Do not stand, walk or handle anything.
• Clear the space. No open flames, no stairs, nothing breakable within reach.
• Have a trip stopper to hand. Knowing it is there matters even if you never use it.
• Nothing else alongside it. No alcohol, no cannabis, no other substance.

4.3 Cautions

• 18+ only.
• Avoid entirely during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
• Avoid entirely if psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder appear in your history or your family’s. Predisposed people can have episodes precipitated by psychedelics, and no dose is low enough to make that safe.
• Do not combine with antidepressants, MAOIs or lithium without medical advice; the lithium combination is associated with seizures and other serious events.
• Do not take it with alcohol, cannabis or anything else.
• Do not drive or operate machinery afterwards.
• Some nausea early on is usual; eat lightly beforehand rather than fasting.
• Keep refrigerated, sealed, and away from children and pets.

Decide what you are aiming for while you are still sober, weigh the low end of that band, and put the rest of the pack out of the room.
