hey I have some cubes, driedand grinded, my question is how long do u think they would last at room temt in a sandwich bag temp around 12-20 degrees winter time in sought east Queensland ? iv been trying to get the dosages right, the other night I had 12 grams and got a mild trip, they are cubes no question, I had the same shrooms fresh and was trip off me guts.I have them about 4-6 months, I picked them in winter time in Queensland I know the season is summer and was lucky to have found them, would they be more potent in summer? just don't want to over do the dosage, but at the same time don't want a mild trip, everything I take is weighted???? any advice u guys have would be great.

12 gm is a mild trip???? Really???
Either your mushrooms are crap or you misspoke or do you mean fresh 12 gm? If you mean 12 gm dried... They probably arent cubes
Don't grind your mushrooms.... Really doesn't help storage... Grinding increases surface area... More surface to air to interact with and reduce lownct
Leave your mushrooms whole... Cracker dry... Cool dry place
Ground mushrooms in a baggy... Give it a couple of months ... At most
Seasons may have some affect on potency... Growing conditions, age and size more I believe

wild mushrooms tend to be lower in potency due rarely being picked at the most opportune time and the mushroom gains mass without packing on much more goodies.
as harryl said its best to store whole and cracker dry in an airtight container. one time I ground up an ounce, within 3 months 6g felt like 2-3
one advantage though is because there ground the potency should remain consistent from dose to dose with a bit of gradual degradation, so with a bit of responsibility you should get no surprises unless you change your consumption technique.

Do you take medicine/pharmaceuticals? 12 grams should be mind shattering... They will hold up for a year easy, just in a dark place in a ziplock bag.

12 grams?? That is a rather large dose. you should have been tripping HARD my friend. Saying that you had a mild trip surprises me. are you sure that they were cubes?

You possibly could just have a sack of very old mushrooms. They could of just had way to long of a shelf life before hand and now the effects of them sound.. well unacceptable. You should have had a very deep trip, having a mild one just doesn't seem possible for that amount of any cube.
