dehydration and potency question

just a quick question... earlier today I put about 21 grams of halfway dried shrooms into my dehydrator and turned it on... About 45 mins later I realized I still had it set on the highest setting of 165 degrees(I was dehydrating some desiccant packets) when I meant to have it on the lowest setting which is 95 degrees... I have read that you should not dry with temperatures exceeding 110 degrees because of potency reducing issues. Soo my question is, did I fuck up this batch potency wise, or should it be minimal degradation??
I'm gonna test it out saturday but I thought I'd see what you guys thought
thanks

I think minimal degradation is the best answer, it may have degraded somewhat but nothing significant. Correct me if I'm wrong tho..where all here to learn

They'll degrade some, but all you have to do is eat more. 
I used to cook mine on the BBQ grill at over 1000F with 'some' loss in potency, but certainly not enough to fail to enjoy myself long before I got full. RR

There was a time that there was about a half ounce of dry mushrooms left on the bottom rack of the dehydrator for two weeks with the dehydrator running everyday with temps up to 165F.
The resulting shrooms were then given to different individuals to try at the gram level.
No one reported tripping any less than usual.
The most important thing about drying your mushrooms is that you get them all the way dry, and if your storing them make sure they stay that way.
