What is Lemon Tek?
Magic mushrooms have been used for centuries for their psychedelic properties. The active ingredient in these mushrooms is psilocybin, which can induce a range of effects, from euphoria to spiritual experiences, down to physical healing properties.
One method of consuming magic mushrooms that became more popular is the Lemon Tek, a way to make magic mushrooms more potent by extracting the psilocybin using lemon juice.
Lemon Tek is a method of preparing magic mushrooms that involve soaking them in lemon juice for a short period. The acidity in the lemon juice breaks down the mushrooms and extracts the psilocybin, making it more bioavailable. This means that the effects of the mushrooms will be felt more quickly and intensely but will also wear off more quickly.
The Effects of Lemon Tek
The Lemon Tek method is said to make the effects of magic mushrooms more potent and come on more quickly. Users report feeling the effects within 15–20 minutes of consuming the mixture, rather than the usual 30–60 minutes. The effects are also reported to be more intense, with stronger visuals and a more profound sense of euphoria. However, the effects of the Lemon Tek method tend to wear off more quickly than traditional methods of consuming magic mushrooms.
How to Make Lemon Tek
- Grind the dried magic mushrooms into a fine powder
- Squeeze enough lemon juice into the shot glass to cover the powder
- Mix the powder and lemon juice together
- Set a timer for 20 minutes and let the mixture sit
- After 20 minutes, drink the mixture in one gulp
Risks and Harm Reduction
As with anything regarding magic mushrooms, lemon tekking requires careful planning and preparation and a commitment to harm reduction principles. By taking the necessary precautions and staying informed about the risks and benefits, you can have a safe and positive experience with lemon tekking.
Psilocybin can increase your blood pressure, so if you have any heart condition or high blood pressure, it’s best to play it safe and avoid lemon tek altogether.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Lemon Tek is a popular method of preparing magic mushrooms that can make them more potent and come on more quickly. It is said that this method produces more intense effects, which tend to wear off more quickly. As with any method of consuming magic mushrooms, it is important to start with a low dose and be mindful of the potential risks and side effects.
