Idk how I never thought of this. I have a bunch of those lids that I never use laying around, and I’m always bitching about how much rust is in my pc from the metal lids.

I’m going to need to start wearing a respirator for now on while I cult. Ever since the NSS spore dumps I have had trouble breathing from the tiniest bit of spore load. Thought I could get away with not wearing one last night because it was just a couple fruits and weren’t dumping yet. Was up half the night lungs irritated and I’m still fucked up today. I got a couple more to harvest tonight and then was hoping to swab but now the thought of getting covered in spores in front the hood sounds miserable. If it keeps up I might be forced to quit the hobby or find cultures that are 100% spore less

Or use a metal that doesn't rust ; )

Ouch, that sounds rough! Maybe antihistamines would help, like for hay fever...
What should we do to avoid that happening? Is harvest the only time to be wary, since they're generally in tubs?

Harvest and drying. The fans blow them everywhere. I take antihistamines for my allergies but this is more like you sweapt the garage with the door closed. No problems in the lab since I run the hood. Unless I’m swabbing then you have spores blowing at you.
I’ll start by investing in a good hepa for that room.
Ideally though, varieties that don’t spore dump or are sporeless are my best option.

Does your stove have a fume extractor? If it's powerful enough, putting the dehydrator under the fume extractor would keep spores from ever getting into your air.

Unfortunately from what I remember reading about it you only get more sensitive once spores start to irritate you.
I started wearing masks to harvest a while ago but should prob get a nice respirator myself.

I was going to say the same thing. I heard Paul stamets talking at an oregon advisory board for psilocybin and he was talking about how the legal market should hold a high standard of 90% unbroken veils because of these issues. Not only can you become more sensitive, but if you have allergies like mentions before, or even worse apperantly, asthma. I was even going to ask D3 if he has asthma because that sounds pretty sensitive. I'm pretty bad, I have allergies and my mom had asthma. And you can develop asthma at any point also, and I would ntbe surprised if spores helped. I won't work without a respirator in my gourmets now,I can't. Cubes have never been a problem tho, at least nowhere as near severely. Sometimws they give me the sniffles

As much shit as i talk, i'll never "quit this hobbie," and neither will you. Your phenomenal at this shit D3.
Im rough with my body. A real 'scub the wound type person. If i had this problem with my lungs (short term) i wud: Get some half dried up hash, roll into a ball and drop in a small vial, cook the bottom of the vial with a lighter till the hash produces smoke, then suck it out with a straw.
I knw this sounds incredibly tweaky and somewhat homoerotic but what will happen is it will cause the strongest coughing fit you've ever had. Your lungs will begin to produce fluid which you cough out. The result is the cleanest, sweetest breathing lungs ever.

I was on the fence about having the dehydrator in the house, this post has pushed me over. I'd been wondering about the presence spores in the home, and how much, much more there is now that it's full of shrooms.
Sorry to hear about your allergy D3, thanks for sharing though. I'm going to work to reduce exposure too. Might also start harvesting sooner... I like the look of the canopies, but not enough to fuck with my health needlessly.

That's what I've been doing but I'm starting to do bigger trays now. I want some good yields
@PrepH I'm very jelly of your shelves.

I got a 6503, seems alright hopefully these goggles I got fit with it. Spores haven't bothered me yet, but I'm going to be ramping up oysters sooner than later.

Stupid tor won’t let me quote but Ihave a teenage daughter in the house. If I didn’t have to worry about her seeing it I’d just dry in the garage or if I had a nice shed. I bought a couple more filters , they make a box fan that takes a 20x20x1 filter. Ordered a couple Of those. One for the bedroom. I might make a cabinet to put dehydrators in with the box fan pulling suction on one side so it catches the spore load.
Also just going to plan on wearing a half face for harvesr and swabbing. If these don’t help then I’ll have to run all spore-less varieties.
