The reason I recommend eating an eighth the first time is so they really understand what mushrooms are all about. Notice I also recommended safe space, trusted people, etc. Hopefully at least one psychonaut. I’m not against trip sitters, I just think they change the vibe and can impede personal growth despite best intentions.
But back to the dose. A lower dose can just feel like a really fun high with body effects. Maybe mild hallucinations. If that’s all someone is after then great! I hope they have fun.
But 3 or 3.5g will introduce people to the deeper aspects of psilocybin. If someone is really scared or something maybe start out lower but they would be missing half of the experience.
I’ve had some pretty big work and benefits and I’ve never taken that much at once. Just saying that seems high for good stuff, that would likely overwhelm the inexperienced.
That’s a pretty strong first dose for most people, I’d test with something more reserved first

Uhh… Take that much at once 😉
