Has anyone tried USAShroomz products? Are they any good and how well are they packaged?
-
+1
-
Decided to try for myself, will update after it arrives.
-
I have an order in transit. Will update.
-
I just got my package and I gotta say thank you USAShroomz, great packaging, great time, and I cannot wait to try it.
-
Should I get galindois sample or usashroomz's sample? 2.5 grams of galindoi or 7 grams of mexicana?
-
Yeah I'd love to know more about this vender as well.
I recently got a package from Galindoi and I can vouch for his shipping method and quality of product. I'll definitely be buying from Galindoi again, however USAShroomz has great prices and the whole chocolate bar thing is sort of intriguing ;)
He seems like a good guy and has positive feedback, but I haven't found too much info about the quality of his product/shipping on the forum yet. Anyone out there that has tried both and could compare Galindoi to USAShroomz?

Same position, curious to know the same thing myself. Galindoi's capsules are good for moderate dosing and having a jolly good time but I feel like they don't quite put me where I need to be for deeper meditative thinking. Looking to try out some good cubes and can't decide between USAshroomz and Rocker...
-
USAShroomz is great. I haven't ordered from anyone else so I can't really compare, but what I've got from him I have to say that it is just an amazing trip and very great packaging.
-
^^
Cool, thanks. Anyone else who has done business with USA feel free to share what you got and how it was.
Also, without giving the details of his packaging away, was it stealthy? Above all else I'm personally most concerned with not bringing attention to my package.
-
The packaging was very stealthy, and the way it looks makes it look entirely like something else, so I wouldn't be all that worried about people thinking it is shroomz.
-
I ordered a whole bar from USAshroomz and the shipping was quick and the packaging was totally discreet.
I haven't tried them yet but a fellow tripmate tried a quarter of the bar and was tripping very nicely, better than some product ive had from here before.
-
I'm staring at a USAshroomz Galindoi sample bar right now, it's 7pm and I have to work tomorrow morning - don't think it's a good idea.
There is barely a review on here, all I really know is that they probably work. Packaging is great.
I'll review it over the weekend. No point being reckless.
-
^^
Update?
-
+1 to learn more. very interested in this seller.
-
Dude I bought 4 samples of his chocolate recently and it's awesome, packaging was stealthy too. USAShroomz is too legit to quit.
-
Got my P. Galindoi Chocolate Bar sample yesterday, didn't even melt in transit. The packaging is great, the label is a nice touch. Gonna eat this thing on friday so we'll see how it goes, will report back.
-
Went ahead and ordered a few of these bars, they came today. Shipping time and packaging was great, and the bars look delicious. Will report back after I eat some but so far I couldn't be happier, I'm surprised USA doesn't get more love on the forums!
-
I ordered the 2.5g sample last Wednesday, it arrived Saturday in stealthy packaging. The bar had melted so I stuck it in the fridge before opening. Texted a buddy to see if he wanted to partake, he had other plans and I had none so I gobbled up the whole thing an hour later.
Now, I'm no stranger to shrooms, having tripped roughly 15 times on shrooms before and about the same on LSD, but wow these blew any shrooms I ever had out of the water. This 2.5g bar was twice the trip I ever had on 7g of local shrooms.
It started out pretty good, watching Land of the Lost, convinced Will Ferrel made that movie for tripping, I was feeling good and could feel the sensation throughout my body. About 40 minutes of watching it I couldn't anymore, turned it off and wanted to listen to some Nirvana but logging into Spotify proved beyond my current capabilities, so I just googled it and happened to stumble upon some youtube channel of Nirvana videos, which I also became convinced all of his videos were made for tripping as well...
My pupils were so enlarged and letting so much light in that my room looked like a flashback scene from a movie, which I'm not used to having usually tripped at night. I basically laid on my floor for a long time just staring at the ceiling fan going around, watching the reflections in the brass morph into odd shapes and faces. The fan itself looked like it was slowly lowering itself down onto me, and had become an aqua blue color, pulsating like something out of a sci-fi movie, the pulsating was most likely me seeing the sound it makes.
I also had moments of time where I couldn't move, I could only lay there with the side of my face on the carpet while the carpet looked like it was swaying in a breeze like a field of grass. The only bad moments from this is I had the shroom farts and felt like I was going to shit my pants while I laid there, luckily I didn't...
The wallpaper on my desktop is a very bright HD beach scene with a hammock and bush, and there was no second guessing that I was seeing the clouds drift and the bush moving in the wind - very tranquil shit.
Later on it had begun storming and I had made my way to my spare bedroom with a super soft towel I had procured for gently sliding across my face. My house is way up on a hill overlooking a horizon of forest, and I sat there in amazement watching a storm turn into the most amazing sunset I had ever seen, if my neighbors saw me they probably thought I was insane sitting in my window with one of my daughters giant pink easter bunny, which had proved to be even softer than my towel. The sunset I wanted to see what it looked like after the trip so I snapped a few pictures on my phone, but the next day I actually had some amazing pictures of the brightest orange and pink sunset I have seen in memory.
So that's my story, I pretty much went down the checklist of a GREAT trip on only 2.5g, and I still can't believe it. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to try these bars. I hope Rocker's are comparable, which should arrive shortly so I can offer a trip comparison. I know I'll definitely be going back to USAShroomz.
-
Downed 4 grams about 30 mins ago... holy fuck. I'm ready for this journey.
T+2 hours: I don't know how i can type anymore. Everything is fading away. My laptop is bleeding. I'll be right back...
T+2 hours and 20 minutes?: I think. Shit is going away, I need to law down to go with it.

Now THAT'S what I call some fuckin' chocolate!
:o
Now I gotta check this vendor OUT!
-
Packaging was great, and shipping came in real quick to Canada. Can't wait to try it on a sunny afternoon.
-
So last weekend I tried USAShroomz sample bar (2.5g) and this weekend I tried Rocker's (just chewed 3.5g raw).
Whether or not it was because I had taken them a week earlier, I'm not sure, but USAShroomz hit me like a truck, I was comatose on the floor etc. Rocker's didn't hit me as hard, and took longer to have an effect, but it didn't give me as much of a sick feeling (didn't lay in a coma thinking I was going to shit my pants like I did on USAShroomz). The visuals for both were pretty much the same, on Rocker's a friend and myself just laid on the couch staring at an HD Wallpaper of a beach scene, listening to Marcy's Playground and focusing on branches and such - letting them morph into different designs, patterns etc.
I wouldn't hesitate to get either again, I like USAShroomz because it's far easier to eat and had a harder trip with 1g less. My only concern is I had a 'sample bar' and perhaps the samples are better than the full product, I'll find out though.
Rocker's are just solid shrooms and friends who are looking for them feel more comfortable buying shrooms they can weigh out rather than a chocolate bar they aren't sure how much or what else is in it. Rocker's caps were a little smaller than I'm used to, but not really fair to judge on appearance since I can't see what went into the chocolate bar.
I'd recommend both, very similar trips, and just choose based on how you want to take them.
-
i added two bars to my cart last night and went to order them this morning...listing no longer available! can you guys please stop buying these bars so i can get some? ;)
-
the vendor is trying to help me solve this problem, but wanted to see if the community had any suggestions:
when i try to import usashroomz pgp key, it isn't showing up in my keychain when i want to encrypt my message. i haven't had this problem with any other vendor.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks!
-
Never had that problem, just to make sure your doing it right you:
Paste his entire PGP key (the header and all) into notepad or notepad++, save it as a .txt. Open GPA.exe, click import, choose the .txt file. Then click your clipboard button, write your name and address, click encrypt and choose username 'usashroomz@tormail.net'.
-
On a mac so I cant use that program. And I haven't had any problem with any other vendor's key. Thanks for the advice though!
-
Just received my cubensis bars mere minutes ago, ordered Wednesday night. Which is great when you take into account that it was memorial day weekend and it wasn't moving for 2 of those days. The packaging is impressive to say the least, wouldn't even matter if somebody opened it. I'll post a review of the quality after I try them out. Gonna be a looooonnngggg wait to friday :O
-

When receiving advice and you're on a Mac... just find the equivalent Mac program and tweak the advice to fit. In our case (I also use a Mac) use GPG Tools. www.gpgtools.org, then paste into a textedit file, highlight the key, click Services and then OpenGPG: Import Key If the message pops up and says 0 keys imported, then it's already there! Many vendors use a different name in their PGP keys than their names on the main, or forum. Unfortunately it makes it hard to figure things out. I had a similar issue with Dimitrispice, but creating another user on my mac, and then importing the key into the GPG Keychain helped me find the right one.
I do occasionally have trouble with certain vendors decrypting my messages (only two in one year) and I had to re-encrypt using a PC... I have no idea wtf is up with their version of PGP though.

thanks for this. i wasn't trying to be difficult, just frustrated because i know the issue is on my end and i'm usually tech savy enough to figure this stuff out myself.
i've tinkered too much with gpgtools trying to get this and another message to work, so i think you are right that it's time to completely start over and create a new key for myself.
did manage to place an order with usashroomz and am expecting them today or tomorrow. really happy he was willing to work with me. nothing but respect for the vendor.
-
Would like to say that I consumed a malabar sample (the whole sample bar), and was at a ++++, a truly transcendent experience, for about 20 minutes during my peak. The claim that the 2.6g contained in the sample being as potent as an eighth is definitely an understatement. These are powerful shrooms, packed in delicious chocolate. I suspect the fact that they are put in the chocolate helps to make them stronger, plus the chocolate gives you some fuel for the trip in case you aren't exactly feeling eating during your experience.
-
can someone describe his Galindoi bars? i wanted to get his cubensis but it ran out
-
Vendor is sold out! Looks like you'll have to wait until next week, which is a shame because the vendor has a description of the P. Gandoli in his profile.
-
Received the P. Galindoi oz. chocolate bar last week. Super fast shipping- bar was melted due to hot weather, but no leakage due to BOMB ASS SHIPPING. I ate 4 grams and had an awesome time. Nice, easy, mellow trip, with a good deal of closed eye visuals. Lots of introspection and emotions. They took ~ 45min to kick in, lasted about 4hrs, and had a very gentle come down. I will probably eat 6-8 grams next time for a fasten-your-seatbelt trip.
USAShroomz is legit!
-
can someone clarify this for me? if i order one of his cubensis bar(not sample) how many pieces does the order come in, 7 or 28? and how about for his galindoi bar?
-
The full bars are 28 pieces I believe.
-
how about one order of his cubensis bar? im thinking on how many to get that's why
-
I had an incredible time with a few pieces of a galindoi bar. Absolutely fucking incredible. An absolute steal too, $50 for 7+ STRONG, beautiful trips.
-
How many squares do you think are equal to an 1/8th of stems/caps in terms of potency?
I'll have some newbs tripping with me and I would like to give them 1/4 of an 1/8th each the first time.
Thanks!

Which bar did you get? if it's the cubensis, one piece is half a gram so i would say 1 or 2 pieces. If it's the galindoi i would say about 3 for a mellow trip.
-
I got the gal. Thanks a lot for the info.
-
I just purchased my first cubensis bar from USAShrooms which also happens to be the first shrooms I've ever bought. Buying in bulk tends to be cheaper and I plan on doing that if I take a liking to shrooms. On his profile it says that the bars stay potent for 6+ months in the fridge. Since I live with roommates, I shouldn't put them in the fridge in case someone accidentally eats them. Does anyone know how long they will last at room temperature (In a cool dry place) in a ziplock bag, and if they're safe to eat even after they 'expire'? Thanks!
-
Just tell your roommates they are fancy expensive chocolates you bought as a gift for your mom or something and not to eat them.
I never did make that review on the quality of these chocolates. The tl;dr is give this man your fucking money.
Twice I've eaten 10.5 of these and both times I've had incredibly intense visuals, even seeing "entities" you would see in a DMT trip the entire time. The most mind-blowing part of both trips was easily having my first out-of-body experiences. My friends ate 3 of them each and both claimed to have incredibly intense trips as well, which really blew me away. I think the perfect dose for these would be 7 pieces, 1/4 of a bar. Incredibly good value if you think about it.
The shipping time is amongst the best I've had on SR, and the packaging is absolutely brilliant. Vendors like USAshroomz are what make this place so great.

I am new to SR and PGP (I too am also a Mac user*). So when you place orders, do you not provide a name and address and such at time of order, and instead send your recieving information encrypted via tormail after placing the order???

You should make a text file on your computer and type the shipping information as you would write it on an envelope into that file. Then use a PGP program to encrypt the file using USAShroomz's key. One such program is GPG, and there is a tutorial for it on these forums (although it is written from Windows users). Since you are on a Mac, see if you can get GPG for your shell and use it there. Look up how to use GPG online. You will need to create a key for yourself, import his key, and then encrypt your text file with his key while signing it with your key. Best of luck my cryptofriend!

A friend and I each ate 3 squares each of the g strain bar and had an amazing time. Def closed eye visuals and some open eye fuzziness and trails. Just felt fantastic and laughed our asses off.
Thanks, USA, for offering such a good product. I'll def be back for more.
-
Just got my order in! It kinda melted though but that is my fault not his. I've got it in the fridge now any recommendations on how to re solidify it so it's back to normal? And I got the Galindoi bar and I've only had cubensis. How many squares should I eat and for my friend who hasn't had shrooms before?

My first time I ate a quarter of a full bar and it was the perfect dose.
It was mainly just more vibrant colors with some morphing, not to overwhelming.
Edit: I think a quarter bar is 8 of the actual individual squares.
-
Only took 3 squares and it just made me super happy and everything was beautifully shiny. Awesome trip and so glad we still have many squares left
-
Superfast shipping + a super product. 8 squares and I had the trip of my life. Have already ordered more, and will continue to do so. I will admit that I did projectile spew a few times, completely out of nowhere. We'll see if it continues to happen.
-
Hey guys, planning to have my first shroom trip with one of Shroomz gandolini bars. Any tips? I'm going for 3 squares.
Thanks in advance!
-
take more or take some more with you if you go somewhere. 3 was definitely fun, laughed our asses off, saw little trails, thought some shit but I do wish we took more the first time. say at least 4
-
Can't wait to try some Galindoi bars
-
Just got one of these chocolate bars and they are amazing! It tasted delectable and was packaged in the most professional manner possible, all of my friends had amazing trips, the doses were spot on! Will be using this vendor in the future
-
I ordered one of the amazing chocolate bars months ago and I just realized I never did a review of them!
That delicious creation arrived in about 6 business days north of the border, looked like a regular old chocolate bar in both package and when it was unwrapped, but segmented into squares. Was split between 4 friends and I, and was one of the most intense trips I've ever had, it also came into full blown effect less than 45 minutes after eating, although I do believe we were all on empty stomachs at the time.
We all ended up watching Planet Earth for hours and having a grand time, lots of laughs, amusement, and amazement were had by all, and it was a really great experience.
Oh, they are also very well made. We had a person in our group that was allergic to nuts, so I contacted the vendor asking if that was a concern, and was assured it was all very basic with safe ingredients. That person had to opt out for other reasons, but had full faith they were just fine.
I'd highly recommend trying out one of the chocolate bars with some friends on a weekend, and the vendor went above my expectations with communication and politeness.
-
I've had some for 3 months.
-
this is easily the best chocolate i have ever eaten... doesn't taste bad either! ;D
-
So how are you guys determining the dose now that they aren't partitioned off equally?
I am confused at how much a bar contains...dose wise?
I apologize if the info is out there already...

The bar contains 28g of dried truffles, which are = ~14g Cubensis caps. So a 9-piece bar gets you 3.11g of Truffles per piece, equivalent to about 1.6g of regular caps. I have a friend who has a really high tolerance, and he took 2, 3, and 4 of them, and he said 2 was a good buzz, 3 was trippin and 4 was trippin hard, like a 6g regular(cubensis) mushroom trip. The quality of regular shrooms varies quite a bit, I had some last year I got from a friend of mine, they were regular cubes, and the bag couldn't have been more than 2.5g, but I tripped harder than I ever have off even 4 or 6g. The truffles are more consistent because they are the Sclerotia, stored food which the mushroom gathers when there is a drought(in nature) and would normally become a mushroom. P. Mexicana is the mother species of P. Galindoi, and it produces a small but potent mushroom, one of the original mushrooms that were identified by A. Hoffman as having Psilocybin and Psilocin. These are rough equivalencies, but the bars are rather consistent when it comes to potency.
USAShroomz is one of the best Vendors out there, I have never been disappointed. For a while he was down and having trouble keeping up with demand, but now he churns 'em out like charlie and the chocolate factory!
-
I ordered some of these a couple of months back and felt it was a really good deal.
I found them to be bitter though, especially trying to pick the mushroom bits out my teeth with my tongue.
My solution was to buy some hot chocolate mix and make myself some mushroom hot chocolate :)
I plan to order another bar at some point in the future.
-
I see what you mean, dark chocolate is not for everyone. The reason it is in chocolate isn't just for stealth- I've gotten chocolates from some of my friends before, most were made with soap molds into scallop shells. The reason its in the chocolate is that the oils and emulsifiers in the chocolate help the delivery of psilocin, because it isn't very soluble in water. I think if you look around online, you could find some resources to help you with making hot chocolate out of them. I used to like to eat shrooms raw, I don't mind the taste, but the chocolate does something to enhance it, I'm not sure what, but they have found chocolate lowers your BP and contains many natural phenylethylamines and flavenoids, which help keep the active compounds in the truffles from oxidizing, and may help improve blood circulation during the trip. With Milk Chocolate, the shelf life would be lower, and the milk protein binds to the flavenoids in the chocolate. I guess you could make a chocolate smoothie out of a couple pieces! The newer bars look like the truffles have been more finely ground, but I don't know that for sure.
-
I don't mind cubensis but this strain seems to be exceptionally bitter. And the dark chocolate itself I also don't mind. It was really the mushroom bits stuck in my back molars that were the worst. I'd pick them out with the tip of my tongue and it would send shivers down my spine.
Anyway the hot chocolate method worked good for me and I just figured I'd share it for anyone else that was having trouble with the bitterness.
-
I just try to chew really softly and gently grind my teeth side to side to avoid pieces getting stuck in my teeth. I never thought about making hot chocolate, sounds a whole lot more enjoyable.
I've been reading up on the P. Galindoi and a lot of forums refer to them as ATL#7, found a lot more info searching with that.
-
I had an all-around great experience with USAShroomz and his P. Galindoi chocolate bars.
Shipping/Packaging: 5/5... It was marked "in transit" on a Wednesday and arrived on the next day! He might've sent it out a few days earlier, but if he truly sent it out on Wednesday, that was super speedy shipping!! The packaging was discrete on the outside, and the individual chocolates were wrapped with very believable and seemingly legitimate candy wrappers. If the box were to be opened (it would've taken a blade to get through all the packaging tape), the products would seem like ordinary chocolate bars. Very inconspicuous.
Product: 5/5 ...However, even though these looked like ordinary chocolate bars, they definitely weren't!! My friends and I each took one and a half segments (~4.6 g) for a nice, mellow trip...and that's just what we got! The chocolate was a bit bitter (as expected--it's made with semi-sweet chocolate) followed by a distinct, tart aftertaste (probably from the shrooms), but we all thought it was quite delicious! As for the actual experience, I felt nothing but love and bliss throughout the trip. I had visuals for a good 4-5 hours during the trip. Also, laughter came easily, and my whole body felt like a warm marshmallow (or I imagine that is what it feels like)!
Thanks so much to USAShroomz! I hope he stays around for a long time! I'll definitely be buying again in the future!
Much Love ;D
-
So I decided to try out the chocolate bar this weekend, but I was pretty disappointed. I ate 4 pieces so I expected it to be pretty strong, but I didn't get any visuals. Got a bit of a body load for 3-4 hours but nothing like the last time I tried these chocolate bars. Last time I took 4 grams and had a nice mellow trip, this time I took 12 grams and it was much weaker. Has anybody else had similar problems with this last batch of chocolate bars?
I hate to complain about it but I gotta be honest. I ended up taking some 25c the next night and had a great trip so I know my receptors aren't fried.
-
Going for round 2 tonight, just took 5 sections of the bar so we'll see how it goes. I used the hot cocoa method this time and it was way better than chewing them up. I still had to fight it down but only because I hate pulpy drinks, I gag trying to drink OJ with pulp in it.
So by my math this should be 15 grams of sclerotia, hopefully that does the trick.
Update:
Got a decent body trip but the visuals were less than spectacular. I guess maybe these just don't affect me like other people, it felt like the trip was about to kick in but just never quite got there. Never had this problem with mushrooms so I don't know what the deal is.
-
I've bought from USAShroomz once before. This last time, he exceeded expectations, took like 2 days to arrive, packaged so awesome.
Saturday I did 1.5 squares, which is just the right amount for me to be at the edge of OEV's, and somewhat active CEV's, but I really don't do shrooms (or any psychedelic) to "see stuff" unless it's something that I can learn from what I see. That's why I like philosopher's stones so much, they are really great for being alone or being with a friend. I watched a couple of heart-string documentaries and just cried for like 4 hours straight...realizing how everything is OK, and suffering is part of this experience...and that grieving through the suffering, all of it...is where the joy is. Joy is embedded in the tears...you can't separate grief from love. You can't separate any emotion from love. Love just is. Ego thinks there's other emotions, but underneath is your soul, which is love.
-
I just ordered my fist bar from USAShroomz. Still processing but I am very eager!
