OMG do I need to throw these away?

Hey guys, so I went on vacation while my cakes were on their 3rd flush and to my surprise did they ever grow. Unfortunately the spores dropped and my two biggest ones are seriously black and curled upward. I am doing a super hard dry in front of a fan right now but is it too late for these guys? Is there any danger in eating them once they are fully dry? Thanks for any info!

They're fine. Just covered in spores and a little past their prime

didn't know if they were too rotten to eat and would cause sickness or something.

Rub the spores off the caps to get a better look at how "rotten"they are. but I'm pretty positive they're fine man.

agreed. but realistically you do not even have to bother washing them off, just dry them as usual. You can wipe the spores off with a paper towel if your that worried about it.

Don't wash mushrooms off with water. This is a bad idea that I had to learn the hard way.
Btw op I love your spongebob poster. I could watch that show all day! If only more people shared spongebob's outlook on life

Thanks for the advice everyone! Just curious Stromrider, what happened when you rinsed them off? I briefly did one of my larger ones just to see and it looks ok so far.

in the future just dry them as is, a little spores never hurt anyone

What drying method were you using? If I were to ever rinse off a mushy before drying, it would be going into a dehydrator on high heat. I find it hard to believe they could turn nasty that way.

I use a 160 degree dehydrator. When I say they were really nasty looking what I should have said we're they were really really bruised. Like the whole mushroom was nothing but a bruise. They were still edible. Well I ate them

I frequently rinse off mushrooms if they have some shit on the bottom of there stems or spores on their caps. They're going to go right into a dehydrator anyway the surface moisture is gone in oh I don't know 30 seconds.
