Pulled this little guy off earlier today.

Others off the cake that were ready today:

I've noticed some of the caps that are still fruiting are becoming almost transparent looking. What could this be?

I'm not having that issue with any of the above fruit.
Translucent wouldn't have been a good of word as transparent, I'll change that in the post.

I posted at 1am, so I meant that I picked it earlier the day before. Didn't realize it was that late/early.

So you can completely dry mushrooms in under 24 hours? Do you have freeze drying equipment?
That is a nice cluster, so you reckon it was ~200g wet then? It must be surprisingly dense.

be careful with that shit, i have a dehydrater that has a temp gauge on it, I set it for 95 degrees, my mushrooms dry in 12 so 24 hours. If you are drying at 4 hours. your temp is way to high.if you don't have a dehydrator that has a temperature setting, you should use a tight timer, to fluctuate your temps by clicking it on or off. Drying in 4 hours is too fast. You will degrade the potency of your mushrooms. at least that's what i have read.
