I've heard of feeding DET and DIPT to mushrooms to change their product, but not anything about increasing potency. If increasing the amount of psilo(cyb)in is your goal, and allegedly tryptamine HCl will do it, then why not just use tryptophan? the mushroom has plenty of decarboxylase to save your effort, and will hydroxylate and phosphoryloxylate to your final product. Could you give us a link to where you got the idea from? If it's true, then we've got another reason to want tryptophan around.
Though I am slightly doubtful, because my experience with psilocybin has shown that it's pretty consistent by dry weight, and by dry weight most mushrooms are about the same weight (thus 3 mushrooms gives you roughly the same dose no matter which three mushrooms - unless they're pinheads still), assuming all the mushrooms measured are at the same level of maturity: ie with homegrown they're just popping open their veil. There is a little variation, but I am fairly sure their genetics determine potency on a dry mass kind of basis. Mushrooms mostly vary in size due to moisture variations and maturity levels.
I once picked a goldtop (they're basically like the amazonian ones) that was like 6 inches in diameter fully opened, but it was so mooshy, If I had managed to dry it out I bet it would have weighed not much different to a little tight dry and dark coloured one.
Maybe if you put tryptophan and methionine in the substrate it might increase potency - certainly in human biochemistry methionine and tryptophan increase the production of methylated tryptamines in the brain (a suggested mix is no mao dangerous foods for a day, maoi, methionine and tryptophan on an empty stomach and it will prompt a production of methylated tryptamines in the brain, which will stick around longer with the maoi added) There might be an amino which increases phosphorylation, and if you put that with methionine and tryptophan it might just increase production. This is probably crazy, but perhaps some long-term maoi's would help too, because perhaps the mushroom has mao to regulate the concentration of the tryptamines? Nah that's nuts, likely excess tryptamines will make the fungi sick. Worth a try though?
