as for dehydrating, i will typically harvest the first flush & leave it in in a paper bag in the fridge & then dry them along side the second flush. you can totally dehydrate them as you go though
My dehydrator ran from June through early August.

New boxes/tubs going now.

Not necessarily cultivation related per se but...
I am going to be making some mushroom chocolates the next few days. I am making them from scratch with cacao butter and cacao powder. I tried last year and ended up just making a bunch of regular chocolate getting the process and the tempering dialed in. This time I am confident in the techniques and will move straight to shroom chocolates. Tonight I am calibrating my new molds, figuring out how much chocolate they hold and how much mushroom powder I can fit in them so I can figure out how much chocolate I will need to make. I plan on making the actual batches tomorrow.
Oh and I've got my last flush in the dehydrator now so I started marinating my jerky meat to be ready to go in there tomorrow as well.
Just going to have all kinds of culinary delights coming up I guess.

finger lickin good
i checked the stuff drying again and dang, now i really know what cracker dry is. they completely shriveled up and are hard on the outside, i guess APE need extra drying time because there so thick, had to throw yesterdays batch back into the dehydrator since now i know thats not dry enough.

If you’re not sure how dry they are you can weigh them and then put them back in the dehydrator for a few more hours and check again to see if they’re still losing weight.

Make simple syrup from tea, make chocolates with infused simple syrup.

What are the limits for solubility of the psilocybin in boiling water? Lets say you wanted to make a tea from 500 grams of dry material, would there need to be a minimum amount of water added? Is there any data on % of goodies extracted?

i think it was talked about in making shroom tea but i do not know the numbers. tea reductions get soupy after awhile. i havent done a large bulk tea in awhile and it was only an ounce or two not 500g

You could probably add agar to the simple syrup tea and make jellies, pretty much what someone I've seen does.
But furreal you add simple syrup to chocolate ide be surprised if it would set.

One of my test chocolate runs last year I made some with maple syrup in it, which is about 25-40% water. It can set up, but if I recall correctly really you are only adding a relatively small amount. Also, it would probably have had sugar bloom if I hadn't eaten it nearly immediately as well  It would take some experimentation to figure out how concentrated you can get the mushroom tea to make the syrup and then how much you put into it to get a decent chocolate out, though I imagine shelf life could be an issue still.

I'm sure you could compensate it with some sort of thickener or something, even agar/gelatin, although idk how that would effect the temper also..
I'm going to use powdered honey when I do it next.

Last weekend I put 44g of APEU in 1qt of water and reduced it down to 45ish mL. It could have gone a little bit longer but I was worried that it was gonna start to burn. Later that night, I tried about 1mL. I wasn't sure how strong it was gonna be so I just had a little bit every 15 minutes. It was actually a really nice come up. Gave me enough time time get my mind right. By the time I called it a night, the popcorn on the ceiling was moving back and forth a little bit but things wouldn't really start moving a lot unless I stared at them.. Tonight, I'm gonna have 2-4mL and see how the night goes.

Another thing I've thought about doing is putting tea into the chocolate in the melanger and in theory you would lose some water...

Was the ml you took close to eating a gram?
I’m curious what the potency conversion is like. 44g into 45ml should make it pretty easy.
