A typical magic mushroom trip will last between 4-6 hours. However, several factors can play a role in how long a shroom trip lasts.
How Long Do The Effects Of Shrooms Last?
While most trips last 5 hours on average, users may choose to microdose. Taking a smaller amount of shrooms (around 1 gram) will lead to a shorter trip than what would occur after taking a larger amount of shrooms, such as 3.5 grams. It can be difficult to accurately predict how long a trip will last based on the potency of mushrooms, amount taken and your body’s chemistry and metabolism.
Taking a larger amount of shrooms, such as 5 grams, can lead to an even more intense and longer trip. The dosage will undoubtedly affect the overall intensity of the trip. A microdose might not cause users to have hallucinations as a large amount may, but it can still offer some medicinal benefits. These benefits include reducing depression and anxiety.
How Long Do Shrooms Take To Kick In?
On average, it takes shrooms about 30-60 minutes to kick in. Conditions will peak 1-2 hours after the shrooms are consumed. Magic mushrooms are usually eaten, either whole or in the form of chocolate or a gummy.
Some users choose to mix it in tea, as well. Consuming mushrooms in these ways means they will be processed in the stomach and liver for the body to efficiently absorb them. As is the case with cannabis edibles, it takes your body some time to absorb mushrooms and feel the desired effects.
For some, shrooms can take longer to kick in than expected. Users may wait over an hour, becoming restless. We recommend slowly taking small amounts of mushrooms if you haven’t felt anything for more than a hour. After consuming another small amount, it’s recommended to wait at least 30-60 minutes for them to kick in. It’s widely believed that adding citrus to shrooms reduces the time it takes for them to kick in.
How Long Do Shrooms Stay In Your System?
Routine drug tests do not usually check for magic mushrooms, but specialized tests do exist. Common drug tests will look for the presence of the following:
- Amphetamines
- Cannabis
- Cocaine
- Opiates
- PCP
Magic Mushroom Urine Tests
Some specific drug tests are designed to detect the amount of psilocin in urine, with the ability to do so 1-3 days after shrooms have been consumed. Psilocin isn’t usually detectable after 3 days, but it can linger in the body for a longer period of time.
Factors that can determine how quickly a body will process and get rid of psilocin include age, weight, metabolism and overall health. At this time it is unclear if psilocin or other compounds in magic mushrooms can be detected in blood or hair follicle tests.
How To Get Shrooms Out Of Your System Faster
Most magic mushroom tests claim to only be able to detect psilocin up to three days after consumption, but this could vary based on the specific individual. While it is unclear if there are ways to get psilocin out of your system quicker, the simple solution is to stop consuming them as soon as possible to let your body do its natural processing.
*Please note in 47 out of 50 states, psychedelic mushrooms are perfectly legal. Users can buy, sell and own psilocybin mushroom spores for research purposes only. However, it is illegal in nearly all jurisdictions to cultivate magic mushrooms. Psilocybin spores are never to be cultivated. The only exception is in New Mexico, where it remains legal to grow mushrooms as long as no steps are taken to preserve the mushrooms. Make sure to familiarize yourself with your local psychedelic spore laws before placing an order. Psilocybin mushroom spores are currently illegal in California, Georgia and Idaho.
