I finally got desperate enough to try NUTMEG!

[Smokin Jake]

Yeah I've been a bit broke lately so got a bit desperate (Doesnt THAT sound bad? lol) and tried nutmeg, I got some whole nutmegs at a farmshop near me for 63p! I ground up three of the four that were in the pack and mixed it with ice cream and ate it. It tastes pretty shitty but the ice cream certainly helped it down. that was about 5 hrs ago....

I feel pretty stoned, in a similar way to pot. Its not too intense and feels good, especially for the price! I had a good read through the notes on nutmeg at erowid before I tried it, it said there that it can cause nausia and vomiting (something I really didnt want to happen) but I have felt nothing like that, I can only think that people who try eating the ground up nutmeg without attempting to mask the nasty flavor/texture feel sick because its just not a nice thing to be eating! I would say the only real negative affect at the moment is dry mouth but Dr Pepper cut right through that!

Excuse my ramblings but thought Id share this with you as I am usually skeptical about things like this but I think it was well worth trying!! I will post again later when the affects have worn off and let you know how long it lasted!

i was gonna post a thread about this. i would like to try nutmeg

i've been to erowid, and there's just not enough information to quench my thirst

i want to hear what people have experienced on nutmeg

[Smokin Jake]

Well I'd recommend trying it! I paid 63p for this! I feel fairly high and its similar to a pot high, I just got up to make a drink and felt my balance going!! 63P!!!!

The pack i got was 15 grams and there were 4 nutmegs in there, two big and two slightly smaller, I ground up and ate the three biggest ones so I woul guess the dose to be around 10 - 12 grams. once again, the idea of putting that shit in your mouth without something to mask it is a very bad one. freshly ground nutmeg does taste a bit more bitter.

Trouble is, I now feel really tired, I dont know if its the nutmeg or the fact I've been up since about 6am.

I had the nutmeg at about 6pm this evening, its now around half midnight. The effects I'm feeling can only have come from the nutmeg as I havent had a smoke for about 5 days and havent had a beer or anything (erowid says alcohol and nutmeg isnt a good combo)

Wait a sec man... is this shit for real??

Why the fuck are we wasting our time with freakin' weed? Nutmeg is legal, cheaper, and a bunch of other stuff.

Can someone verify this!? Can I do it with ground nutmeg?

How much is too much? Can you OD on nutmeg <----sounds retarded.

[yoshi424]

no its not to get anything from nutmeg you'd have to eat around a pound of it >> and what is 63p?

[Neo of WNEC]

Hmm, I've read a lot of stuff on erowid, I'm tempted now. But I guess you feel pretty stoned for days... not just hours.

Maybe during the summer... I'll plan a wekk that I won't hurt myself, and go a our littl cabin in the middle of vermont with some friends.

Mmm... wonder if I'll die swimming.

DO NOT EAT A HALF A POUND OF IT. YOU WILL DIE.


ok, in the past couple months I have experimented with nutmeg to good results so I might as well settle the score and lay out the facts for everybody to know.


Yes you can get high using nutmeg. Yes it tastes like shit but it works. You must know what you're doing and know the precautions to avoid having a bad experience. One thing many people miss is the dosage. I would NEVER EVER recommend anybody eat more than 1 oz of it at a time. And this dose is for a very big person who wants a VERY strong trip. If you can get whole nuts, try eating 4-5 (eat 4 if your bodymass is low) for your first time. You want to take them in the morning or early afternoon since it takes awhile to kick in. I have amazing willpower so I can just pop the whole ones in my mouth and chew them and down them with water. I wouldn't recommend this though unless you are good at ignoring the taste. One thing to note is don't try to cook them or you'll release the mrysticin and it won't do anything. Ice cream is fine, water is fine. Take your time eating it and take a break if you feel like youre sick. It usually takes a good 30 minutes to finish a dose including the breaks in between ingestion. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: drink lots of water. lots and lots. before during and after. the reason people get hangovers from alcohol is because it dries out their systems (along with other adverse effects). The reason people get hangovers from nutmeg is because it dries you out even more than alcohol. Drinking lots of water counters this. I can't emphasize this enough. This is also why nutmeg+alcohol is a bad idea, they both dehydrate the fuck out of you. Once you get it down, just chill for 4-5 hours
by the end of the 5th hour you should be feeling pretty good buzz. I havn't had a chance to see how others react but I would assume that some people react differently to it than others. If it doesn't do anything for you, oh well, you're out what? a buck? Most likely though you will notice the effects. Lots of people apparently get impatient and eat more before they start feeling it and it causes them to OD. It is possible to OD but it shouldn't be lethal unless you eat a half a pound as suggested earlier in the thread. Bottom line, be patient. The buzz feels very much like weed for awhile. If you didn't eat them too late in the afternoon though and you're not too sleepy yet stay up and the trip will get stronger. The strongest dose I have taken is 5 nuts (i'm going to up this soon) and at this point approximately 10-12 hours after ingestion I was noticing some slight eye candy like movement in the walls and ceiling. Edit: assuming you drank a lot of water, you will sleep well and you might be slightly lethargic for 12-15 hours after waking up. You wouldn't be too intoxicated to function but you just won't want to. Its not inconceivable though to go to work on the nutmeg comedown, it would just not be very cool. It doesn't leave you high for days or weeks. At least for me, i was back to 100% normal by the time I went to sleep the next night.

I think that the toxic part of the plant is the actual plant material and the hallucinogen is the oils. So if you can eat the extracted oils only it would be safer to eat a higher dose. I am going to try to figure out a way (perhaps boiling) to extract the "nutmeg butter" and put it in gelcaps so that the trip will be stronger. One experience on Erowid using this method said it was akin to Mild LSD and amphetamine. I'll keep you guys posted though.

Anyway... Don't be dumb about it and you'll have a good time with it. Thats all I got to say about that for now.

[PIPSI]

wait so i could be high off of it for days? or even weeks? that sounds kind of sweet but that could really turn out bad if i had something important to do o man im so confused will someone please explain the being high for a loong time thing to me?

[PIPSI]

oh nevermind i read it wrong he said i wouldnt get high for days my bad

[THC101]

Ive tried nutmeg before, multiple times. I think it works better when your sleep deprived.. at like 1 am and stay up all night. But i loaded it into gel caps and took like 8, and another time i just got ground nutmeg and ate two spoon fuls, and washed it down with milk. One time i went outside while on nutmeg at like 3 am to smoke a cig with my friend and we halucinated sooo bad, like we kept seeing shit moving in the bushes, weeiiiird, we ran inside..lol....

this shit works, its better in larger quantities..

beware, the higher the dose, the worse constipation you will have............

[PIPSI]

could i use just plain old store bought ground up nutmeg or does it have to be the seed things? and if anyone doesnt know what i mean by the plain old kind i mean like the kind that i would use for baking or something that is all ground up and u can sprinkle it on stuff and if i can use it like that then how much would i need to do?

[KraziHare]

Don't use the stuff in a canister, you need to use real nutmegs (they're actually nuts), prefferably ground up. I've done it several times and it works. Depending on the dose (I usually took about four or five) you will get various interesting highs. The first time was the best though, I went to the mall with a friend and had a good time, I don't remember a lot of it actually. Expect extreme dehydration and a loss of time perception.

[Corn-dog]

Whose seen idle hands? Thats what i always think about when people talk about getting high off of nutmeg, but in the movie he smoked it.

[XZit]

Ok I dunno if this will work or not...but what about smoking nutmeg? Does that work?
I dunno...

[OrngAviatrGogls]

I've heard of people smoking it and getting really bad headaches. I don't think its recommended.

Or its possible that when they smoked it it actually went through the pipe and they effectively inhaled it so they might as well have snorted it....

just stick to eating it.

Also, the stuff from the canister can work but it has to be fresh. If its open and its been sitting around for awhile don't bother, it will probably cause a headache. If you buy a fresh bottle from the store eat 2-3 tablespoons. Its harder to eat in a powder though because of the texture.
