Ok so 2 cakes have not fruit anything. Why? Is it ok to place my mushies on a box fan to dry. I am currently looking for a food dehydrator. And or a silica gel pack and a drying chamber. Any advice on how to dry and storage please. Thanks noob in progress

Give them time. Not all cakes will fruit at the same time.
Without a dehydrator you're best best would be to use an oven in combination with that box fan. Get them dry, then throw into a container with the silica packs.

Make sure to either use the oven racks or some sort of a rack system. Don't just lay them out on a baking sheet or anything like that.

Psilocybin doesn't degrade until well past 350f. A couple of hours should work, my guess would be about 4-6. I have only ever had to dry in the oven once in an emergency situation lol.

Depends.....anywhere from 6 - 18 hours, depending on how packed I have the thing.....
If there is an ounce in the whole thing, 6 hours.....if there is an ounce and a half per tray, several trays, 12-18 hours.................

the 2 cakes not fruiting might just need more time, sometimes there is late bloomers. are they too dry? and u have proper FC? and for drying with a fan, i have done it before i got my dehydrator and it worked well. just put the shrooms on a lifted surface with holes in it and put the fan on lwo. u might even want to slice the larger muchies in half for faster drying. once they are pretty crackery (crumble apart easily) u should put em in an airtight container like a mason jar or something and put silica or some other desiccant with them. good luck and happy growing!
