White mold in drying shrooms!
    #8422675 - 05/19/08 11:03 PM (4 years, 9 days ago)

Hello everyone!

Im really happy because a little less than a month ago ive been harvesting some shrooms. I have Ereal, Australian an P.C (or was it P.F) Tex (Tek?).

I used cakes tek and i didnt get a big yield but thats ok cause its my first time, ill improve.

The thing is i stored all my Ereal mushies in the fridge before they were fully dry (id say little more halfway) and a week or so passed and i opened them to show them to a friend of mine and they had this strong mush smell (not normal) and tiny spots of white mold.

I took them out and put them to dry, they are now fully dry and less smelly, i separated all the parts of the shrooms that were moldy and i tossed them. The question is are this still safe to eat? Is it possible that the mold was just micelium? or maybe a harmless mold?

Thanks in advance :wink:

Did you ever solve the white mold question? I have the same situation: white fluffy mold/stuff on drying shrooms.

If you don't dry them fast enough, mushroom mycelium often grows on the stem and caps.  Next time, pick and immediately place in front of a fan.  They'll be dry enough in two days to place on desiccant to finish up.
