Ya I know, I just thought that:

A. Well it should hopefully be obvious to most people.
and
B. If you shouldn't rely on strangers on interweb forums for medical advice... why trust strangers on interweb forums to tell you who to trust for medical advice? It just seems a bit ironic :tongue:

Nevermind:thumbup:

I have to use the old box fan and silica packet method because I don't have a dehydrator. But I saw this tek the other day on here that uses your clothes dryer and a home made shelf to hang in the middle out of reach of the spinning I was thinking of trying on low heat setting. The only thing I am worried about with that is the lint and maybe my shrooms smelling like dryer sheets. here is the link to it

I would just get a dehydrator man...You won't regret it!  They are sooo nice.

But anyway, would it be safe to store shrooms in the freezer and then only take them out to weigh the amount your using and then seal them back up in the freezer?  They are def cracker dry.

I'm going to some shows soon and will be bringing them and not using them for a few hours after the freezer.  My plan was to put x amount on a subway grinder, bring it on the train and then eat it when I get to Grand Central.  Its almost sounding like a bad idea to have shrooms sitting on a sandwhich like this for a few hours.....I'll also be making gelatin capsules to bring incase its not enough at first. 

off topic but anybody know about how much you can stuff in a size 00 capsule?  hopefully I dont need like 20 for a couple grams...lol

I think I have seen both yes and no on here for the freezer you would have to search it, that may have been how I found out about the botulism and started researching it, cant remember UTSE and search for it I couldn't say

If they are cracker dry and you use a silica gel pack they will keep for at least a few months not frozen, you really need to freeze them?

it could have been a weighing issue (while fresh or while dry), something about drying method, hollow stem, higher humidity, damp shrooms...anything above :tongue2:

I just wanted to add that sometimes I have left shrooms be for a like a week to long, and when I harvested them they literally would squish water out. They felt really limp and wet. I never weighed anything before and after, so I couldnt tell ya the water % of those, but maybe something like that happened to yours and they were just a bit saturated with water.
