    According to the Psychonautwiki on shrooms (which is fairly reliable in my experience), anything over 50mg of psilocybin is a “heavy” dose. Trouble is, unless you can get your shrooms from a reliable source, guessing the psilocybin content is pretty tricky. The one time I intentionally did a pretty heavy trip on shrooms, it was something like a quarter ounce of dried shrooms, but another time I just had a nibble on one for laughs while drinking with my buddies and it wound up being pretty substantial. If they’re fresh instead of dried or just a different strain or batch, it’s all pretty up in the air, so my advice is to always be ready for a heavy trip unless you’ve already had some experience with that particular batch.

      Yeah just be careful. There are instances of dudes whacking their weeners off with hatchets and one guy repeatedly headbutting his eyeballs onto pencils until he died on heavy psilocybin doses.
