Mold while drying?
    #18436402 - 06/18/13 11:23 AM (11 years, 6 months ago)

hey shroomery, wasn't sure which forum was the right one to post this in, but here goes:
i left a largish amount of cubes on some rice in my cupboard until i could get round to fan drying them because it usually seems to make a good desiccant. however, i forgot about them and they've been in there about five days (maximum) and there's a fair amount of white fuzz growing on some of the damper shrooms (and a VERY tiny amount of blue mould on some shrooms, but mostly on the rice). the white fuz looks like normal fuzzy cube mycelium and does not grow on the caps. don't hate if this is a stupid question, but is it safe to assume that this is just the mushrooms trying to start growth again due to the damp conditions?
any advice on whether i should eat these would be appreciated xx

Mold or mycelium, if there is stuff that has started growing on your harvested mushrooms than you need to throw them away.

That's going to leave you with some godawful stomach pain if you try to eat them.

Get a cheap dehydrator, get em dry in 12-24 hours. Heat doesn't affect potency and you need moving air to dry them.
