crackle dry shroomies needed!

So my friend has this nice toaster oven that has a food dehydrator setting. He has a thermometer measuring the inside temperature during dehydration and it reads between 96 and 97 degrees. Is this ok for drying his shroomies?

Does anyone know in what section of the store Drierrite can be found??? I 've went to walmart, home depot, and when I say 'Drerite' or 'Dry-rite' or 'Dessicant' they have no idea what the hell I'm talking about. Agh...So then I'm left to look for myself I have not found it. What section is it usually found in???

OK, look for "ice melt" it's a product used for melting ice. Usually for a sidewalk, so an ol lady don't slip and bust her ass, ect. It will run you about 4.00. Ya see Ice Melt is the Ghetto version of "damp rid". Get your ass to the 1$ store and buy a huge chip and dip bowl. Cut the bottom of that fucker out. Get a screen, i.e. that one on your window. Wash that bitch.... Then obtain a rubbermaid, strelite, whatever... Fill that bitch with ice melt, lay your screen down, put your chip and dip bowl, place in front of a fan... The sectioned bowl is very nice for keeping strains. If your not worried about it, place them inside a bowl and roll............

I've said it before and I'll preach it til the day I die...American Harvest food dehydrators. Set temp. gauge at lowest setting, and in 12-14 hours, you have crisp fungus amongus.

What keeps the potency best? Food dehydrators or Drierite? Is there a noticable difference?

Ellemyshade: The only thing I've noticed that affects potency is the actual strain genetics. The weakest cube strain I ever grew and dehydrated was Mazatapecs...needed 4 grams to achieve a mid-level 3 experience. PES Hawaiians, on the otherhand, grown the same way (PF Tek cakes in HydraPod) and dehydrated at the same temp. setting as the Mazzies only needed 1.5 grams to achieve an upper-level 3 experience. Of course, I'm sure if you exceed a certain temperature...eventually you'll start losing potency...but I only ever used a dehydrator...and everyone who ever shared in my trips agreed the potency of freshly grown/preserved shrooms can't be beat.
Love & Light,
Boppity
