How long will shrooms maintain potency
    #21279623 - 02/15/15 07:50 PM (9 years, 3 months ago)

I have 3 grams of shrooms that i dont want to take right now but i want to save for when i really want to do them but if they are gonna lose a major ammount of potency I'll eat them sooner they are already about a month old i am keeping them in a glass mason jar which in inside a ziplock bag inside an airtight plastic jar inside a closed draw in my closet i think that should help preserve its potency but how long have you guys saved shrooms for and they still had a potent affect

If dried and stored properly, shrooms will keep almost all of their potency for an indefinite amount of time. Years, even.

At least 3 months, even assuming windy, sunny, hot, and humid storage conditions.

hmmmm...so the chemical psylocibin degrades over time?  what if you extract it and keep it in alcohol?

According to TMC, store the completely dried mushrooms in a vacuum sealed bag in a dark freezer. Light degrades psylocibin.

Just what I herd.

On a totally different subject, does anyone know what a monotub should look and smell like during colonization? I have a thread about this in my log. Thanks for any input

i dont know about freezing mushrooms... maybe if they are completely dried first but I dont know if I would do this?  correct me if Im wrong, just doesnt seem right.  I keep mine in mason jars, with desiccant, and in a cool dark basement... cracker dry first before going in the mason jars, then desiccant.  I think moisture is your worst enemy here, then too high of a temp maybe...

That's just what McKenna said, IMO that method would seem to be the best way to preserve them.

Just keep em dry in a dark drawer or something.
Vacuum sealing them and throwing then in the freezer wouldn't be necessary. It's not lsd it's mushrooms that grow in nature so if they can take a beating from mother nature I think theyll be okay chillin in a drawer.

As others have asked, are they wet/dry?
Wet shrooms kept in a cold environment in a paper bag which allows them to breath can keep for months.
Cracker dry shrooms kept in a reasonable climate away from moisture and light can keep for years.

(cracker dry means 0 moisture, they should have the sound of fall leaves and crumble if you crush them in your hands).

in which case don't fret.
Keep them in multiple plastic bags or a glass jar to prevent absorption of moisture from the air and they will be good for years.
