Problem with stored cyanescens
    #17332293 - 12/04/12 12:11 PM (12 years, 1 month ago)

Hi guys, I picked some wild cyanescens about two weeks ago. They've been dried out and were stored in a ziploc baggie, inside a sealed jar, inside a dark minifridge. Anyways, about two days ago there was a power outage - I was out of town, didn't know - and when I came home everything in the fridge was cold again, but the food had spoiled. My shrooms have gotten a bit damp from condensation and there is some kind of white mold - not fuzzy, it's more like little specks and spots and stripes. It scrapes off easily and they smell strange since the shrooms got all rehydrated by going in and out of temperature ranges.

Has this happened to anyone before? I have read other posts asking similar questions, and I think I could boil them into a tea. They were completely sealed off and had been fully dry when I put them in there. Would I be able to boil them into a tea and just test it, or is it better to throw them away?

I'm not sure if it's mycelium that started when they got all warm or not.  Personally I have a strong stomach and I cope pretty well, might boiling them into tea inside a coffee filter or something and trying a small amount to see if I get ill or not be a good idea?

I wouldn't. If they smell odd it could be from bacteria which eating would be a far greater risk than consuming mold,
