Nope.
A dehydrator's cheap, no need to spring for the most expensive models.
Ones like this work just fine:

Also, this is more of a "Mushroom Cultivation" topic, not Advanced Myc.

yes you can. just get some desiccant (crystal cat litter) and spread it on a table. place the mushrooms on top. Run a fan facing the mushrooms. They will be dried out in a day or so. try not to let the mushrooms touch as much as possible

Okay I missed this a few days ago but WTF.  This is advanced mycology.  Like, the LAST place you want to be giving advice like this.  Put some mushrooms on a table full of cat litter crystals and point a fan to it?  Like seriously?

it works every time, used to do it like this back in the day with some pretty massive batches. I'm not sure if the question  fit in 'advanced mycology' to begin with anyhow. do you have any ideas to contribute?

Would the fan not just blow all of the cat litter off the table?  :confused2:

no that was never a problem for me. I was using the crystal type - I think it is silica cat litter? Not the clumpy clay stuff. The crystals were big enough not to be blown off. This was a few years ago - i can't recall exactly how long it took, i think 1 -3 days for cracker dry. My house was also very clean too. never had a single issue with mold. The fan was a just a decently large pedestal fan.

Because Advanced Myco has just become a place where noobs occasionally come to ask questions that seem advanced to them.

I highly recommend just getting a dehydrator. I got mine for about $50 and it can dry big shrooms overnight. They get cracker dry very easily.

I always found fan drying + desiccant chamber to be a big pain in the ass. I notice no potency loss from using my dehydrator at 160 F, so it's the obvious choice. Desiccant drying should stop being so highly recommended. Just take the $30-50 and get a dehydrator.

i wasn't suggesting desiccant drying is better than a dehydrator , was just trying to answer his original question of drying for as cheap as possible. but yea, get a dehydrator if you can afford it.

You don't think retaining the potency of your fruits, and their viability for proper storage is a good enough reason?
Mine was $30 and It's still running smoothly over a year later.

This guy's too advanced for us Dank, that's why he's here in advanced mycology not knowing how to dry mushrooms.

You are right I'very done it, you don't even need any extra materials. If you live in a dry area like me you can just spread them out in an open, clean area so they don't touch. put on a fan and rotate the mushrooms every few hours so all sides get dried.

Inocuole! Lmao :bigblunt: bro your killin em your Ion Thrusters are on fire you need to Nitrogen Purge those boosters lol!, hey us noobs fight hard for earning the rite to post on (Advanced Myco) let's not jump the gun on desiccant! I have a new dehydrating/curing Tek chek me out...I used to cure my weed most times with other beneficial spices such as "Star Anise" "Vanilla Bean" and my personal FAVORITE "Spearmint" you can most definitely  apply the same method to the sacred mushroom, instead of dehydrate, use desiccant in a small Cardboard curing box, first dry to half capacity or dry the Shroom 40-50% the desiccant will slowly absorb moisture. Then while applying raw spices to a close proximity of the stipe and cap, that slow rate of absorption is going to leave the spice with enough time for the Shrooms to take in the aroma and flavor of said particular spice....it would work wonders for Tea!!! Wonders I tell you holy $#!t somebody rate

@Poponon.....kitty litter to dry is effed up bro
