Mushroom drying experiment
05/05/08 11:51 PM

abstract: The drying temp difference from the 150 degrees Wal-Mart nesco and the temp controlled nesco set at 95 degrees are HUGE which really sucks because now these 2 dehydrators are useless to him but the truth is the truth.

Personal note: Around here a lot of people talk about how they take 1 or 2 eights of shrooms and they had a lot of fun whatever. I think a lot of these people who think drying them in these dehydrators at this temp are spreading around weaker shrooms and just don’t know any better and its sad they are losing out on the true power of this magical substance. I never realized until now this might be what’s going on.

Experiment:

Equipment
2 Wal-Mart nesco dehydrator one temp setting ( about 150 – 160)
2 dehydrator Nesco bought online that has a temperature control
1 very high priced thermometer to make sure the temps that are recorded are correct
40 oz of wet mushrooms Amazonian strain
(The bias of this experiment is STRONGLY in favor of being able to use a higher temp to dry shrooms)

Reason for experiment:
First off my friends has grown tons of shrooms and is pretty good at it but that is irrelevant to this experiment. We read on many threads that you could dry them in a nesco dehydrator bought at walmart that levels off at about 150 – 160 degrees with no temp control. He thought that this would be great because then he could take up the temp of his temp controlled nescos and dry them faster.

Drying one: was in the walmart nescos with no temp control and about 20 oz of shrooms where dryed BTW they where not overdried if anything they where underdryed. But either way they where dryed to the same level as the ones in the other nesco

Drying 2 was in the nescos with temp control at about 95 degrees same amount dryed to the same level of dryness

Results:
The first batch was taken to a friends house everyone ate about 1/8 an oz of shrooms everyone tripped and had fun but when I eat that much I should be out of my mind tripping I was at about an ok level 3 trip.

The lower temp batch. Well me and my friends dosed at about 2.2 grams so no where near the dose and got to a good level 3 almost 4 trip.

The lower temperature batch was much much better which sucks a lot but what ever
