Just pop them in and turn it on for 12 hours. If they are "cooked" it's fine, trust me they are still active.

Set it to 135 and let it go until they are cracker dry.

Alright I just don't like that crispness, doesn't feel right. You think its from leaving it in too long? And after how many hours should I check on them, I wanna do this before I crash I think I have about 600 more grams ready. and I sleep for 7 hours. It only has one setting sadly

You can put them overnight, or throughout the day. Dehydrators are the easiest and fastest way to get your shrooms cracker dry.

Well you want all the moisture to be dehydrated to prevent your fruits from rotting or molding. I leave them in there until they are cracker dry... Meaning I can't bend them at all, they'll just snap.

Lol! Ahhh, cultivation problems 
You've got a lot of fruits on your hands. One time, when one of my bins exploded, I had no more room to dry them. I tried my hand at making this...
http://www.shroomery.org/11113/Dionysian-Wine
Worked amazingly, but I'm not sure of your situation. Do you have any wine to spare?
Also, they are right about the temps. Don't worry, the actives don't start breaking down until something like 170C-ish. They'll still be potent as long as you make sure to stay below 160C 
Happy tripping!

I would but I don't drink alcohol, I would like to make some concentrates though like psilocybin crystals for capsules, I read on a website sometime ago that you can use mycelium to make concentrates as well.
I think I will also try stringing some on tomorrows flush after dehydrating tonight. Ill post all the differences in these drying methods let me know if you have any other drying ideas!

Most dehydrators stay around the 70C degree temp if I remember correctly.
I've noticed that the room with the dehydrator running seems to have a light mushroomy smell to it. It's not to annoying but it's noticeable if you walk in the room.

There's shroom honey! Another way someone on these forums preserves their mushies, is they'll make a giant batch of tea with fresh shrooms, and then freeze that. It was still just as potent a year later. I think he might have tried it 3 years later but not sure.
If you want I'll try and find his recipe.

I completely agree with Zephen. Every thread I've ever read said 135F and that's what I've been setting my dehydrator at and it take 7-8 hours and they are as dry as they'll ever get. Just dried some yesterday actually

I have always dried my cyans on my kitchen counter cap down in open air it takes four days but they keep their fiber like texture but do not mold it is great. I understand it is fast and maybe I will like the dehydrator once i can use it right for this process, id like to get a temp adjustable one
These have been in a jar since november

Wet of course I will post the dry weight when they are done. I am at 1300 wet, and I believe Ill get around another thousand in the next couple of days so approximately I'm guessing the end result will be 8 ounces


This is what is left to pick once I get home from school today

You do realize that it became unsterile as soon as it went into the monotub right?

Pretty damn good for a first grow. That's around what I got in my first mono (17.7oz dry) Great results! Can't wait to see how much you improve from this one
