Shrooms lost all potency in a matter of months?

I had about an ounce of some amazingly awesome mushies that I put away in a box which ended up in a closet. Not sure exactly how long they were in there, but I've lived in this place less than a year. Anyway I was overjoyed when I found them, several of my friends ate 'em all and no one tripped at all. Is it normal for them to lose all potency in such a short time" they were in a sealed bag. They were orissa I believe or maybe TC.

Its hard to say without more details.
If they were grown from spores, then it could just be an unlucky back that were bunk, thats the only thing i can think off

I am assuming you properly dried them and all since they weren't moldy and such? You dosed from the same batch prior to packing them away?

I dried them in this real nice dehydrator I got. They were from some 2nd gen wbs jars that I had, everything from that batch was absolutely amazing. I just dont get it

For long storage, you want all the air out. A vacuum sealer is best. RR

Yeah I just had them in a zip lock bag, I didnt plan on it being long term storage, I just forgot they were there lol. I was stoked when I found them and then I wasnt when I ate em. I just didnt know they got soo weak so quick. It had been several months since my last trip to so I dont think it was a tolerance thing
