How would you dry mushrooms with no dehydrator and no access to a fan?? A desiccant chamber is also probably not an option. The climate is cold and like 60% rh too. I have no idea how to help on this one.
Gotta be the oven right?
Crack oven door, lower temp than normal I think, and enjoy your hot as fuck house

Welcome, Rusty.
There's a link in my sig line, "Things I wish I'd known when I started here."
One of the links on that page goes to this:
To the young men taking "heroic" doses to fix themselves, but having a bad time
I mean, too little too late now, but you might find something useful there. Or want to comment on it. lol.
There are also comments on that thread of people who've done similar to what you did.
I'm curious, what made you do that? Had you tripped before?
Glad you're here. And remember, you can always take more but you can't take less after taking more.
I'm done with even 5 gram trips. Done it, it's not something I enjoy. More like something to endure.
I've been having some very good one gram experiences lately. Strong shrooms, probably equal to 2 grams of average, but that's enough for me at this point. Part of what I love about that too is that it ends in about 4 hours.
You can always do another gram or two near the end if you want it to prolong. Despite common belief, that works.
A lot of people on Reddit say "You'll already have a tolerance and it won't affect you" but those are people who haven't done it much or at all, and are quoting old wrong info (like much of Reddit, on any topic.)

Sounds rough Rusty, glad you're feeling okay.
I had a blast on Thursday night, 6g tat. At one point I almost spun out on the come up and was a minute away from up chucking but I managed to breath deeply and focused a bit to allow the colors and patterns to be less chaotic.
I can't say I remember that much to be honest, 2 hours trying to take a piss so I just sat there naked on the toilet for ages listening to music and having thoughts of being thankful.
My son doodled on my phone a few weeks back and the picture was just great like 3 hrs in, made me really feel so much love toward my sons I made sure to go give them both a big hug when we were out and about the next day.
Lots of anime and all around feeling great, I really don't go into my trips with any expectations anymore, I just go in wanting to be high as fuck and enjoy the vibe. It really makes everything much easier because I'm not expecting any kind of transcendental experience or some kind of major emotional change, I just have fun.
This was his doodle, it made me laugh and looked amazing on mush.

Pic tax, I take samples from developed mushrooms and store them in the fridge for a week or so as I have time to transfer the clone to agar. You don't have to clone mushrooms immediately.

One could also make a lot of tea and free it in ice cube trays. Skip the dehydration all together.

Dear Nektar61, its the first time i have looked into your position, and i can't thank you enough for posting this and after reading your linked post i appreciate you even more.
There is in fact a huge difference between taking high doses knowing why/how OR doing it unexperienced, believing that its cool and one has to do so to be something or someone.
I only want to say this about Terence McKenna's position in all this. The 5g heroic dose he has been talking about (5 grams in silent darkness) is certainly a difficult term. it probably messes with the young man's mind as it easily brings comparison into the equation, and with such powerful substances you cant compare. everybody reacts differently. and yes, i agree, McKenna was kind of radical about this (and many other things) and this should never have been taken out of context. Mc Kenna never advised 5 grams as a beginner's dose!!! rather 2 to 3 grams. But he also advised against too low doses to not get stuck in the limbo (which makes sense IME)
He was certainly more often than not confronted with hundreds or thousands of people who havent taken post threshold doses and being a good avatar of the experience he had to defend it for its particularity and precious nature. In order to gain the "right" to talk about what it is you have to know what it is when it really hits.
So when he introduced the 5g heroic dose he maybe did so to give a 100% guarantee scenario. do this in silent darkness and you will for sure know what its truly about. and in this sense its understandable.
but unfortunately it has been taken out of context and i would like to balance it out with another famous of his quotes, "take it easy dude... but take it!" and if 1 gram does the trick, even better .
wishing happy halloween without bad trips chris
ps. You nailed it when you said, if you wanna do something heroic, do something thats really hard to do. thats perfect.

If you wanted to do a bit more work, dosing them out and making tea in ice cube trays would be good too.

@Nektar Unfortunately I can even blame what happened to me on inexperience. I'm in my 40s and quite familiar with this world. I pushed it too far. I wanted to see if there was something else beyond what I had already explored. Well, I can tell you there is. Just not what I expected. I had rough trips before but this one was different. I was lost. There was no lifeline to reality anymore. Nothing was real. That includes life and death. I thought of burn my house to see if the loop would end (that was nowhere near a suicide intention, I legit thought nothing would happen because life was a loop you can never get out of anyways...) but I had no idea how to use a lighter and also a good friend watching over me (thank god for him).. All that to say I'm not going that far again. Of all the people I know, I have the lowest tolerance to mushrooms. That dose was just too much for me. But thanks for the post and links.
@Derrayld: thx for the kind words. I'm glad you could handle the rougher time and ended up with a good trip overall. Also, fuck bathrooms while tripping. On high doses they become a fucking vortex you can't get out of 
PS: me pushing it too far has noting to do with Terrence or heroic doses or wanting to change myself. It's just me being me and pushing it as usual.I've had good experiences before on very high doses. The last time was simply more than I could handle and I'll make sure to not repeat that mistake. The beauty of it is, in the end I was lucky and nothing terrible happened and I still managed to get something out of that trip.

being bored can be a bitch on high doses thats when i get the loops
not bored like lets go to the park but bored in the reality in general around you. bored with life/death bored with everything. i get really antsy and paranoid it can be tricky to snap out of that.

Happy Halloween everyone.
Here’s an update on the colonized grain damprid drying thingy.. it’s not moving as fast as I thought it would. I thought it’d only take a few days but the moisture does have to make its way through 3 layers of tyvek so it’s understandable. It looks like it’ll still speed things up by about a week so that’s cool.
The two just air drying next to the DR chamber are on the left and the DR jar’s on the right (obv)

I totally agree with you on bathrooms. I had a good chuckle when o read this as someone else relates to my situation as well. In fact, my first ever trip which was a very long time ago, I dosed 2 grams at my cousins house. After an hour I felt a bit nauseous so I went to use his downstairs bathroom. Almost 2 hours later I finally found the courage to find the doorknob and release myself from the torment of that vortex 😂. Mind you this was a small 6x5 bathroom. In my mind I thought there was a pile of bricks on the other side of the door that built a wall and if I open the bathroom door I would be locked in forever. I had to let myself comedown for what seemed an eternity before I realized I was just tripping. What’s even funnier was my cousin thought I had left through his backdoor and didn’t realize I was in his bathroom stuck
Now whenever I’m tripping I avoid being in the bathroom unless I really have to urinate and I do it quick. Cause as soon as I’m in the bathroom for over a couple minutes I feel the walls start closing on and the floor dissipating beneath my feet. 😄

I don’t use heroic doses to help myself. Microdosing did that.
My best mushroom experience was 15g. My worst was 6g. They’re unpredictable and magical.

But now I know I can't handle 4g gt + 4 melmak (weirdly 7.5g gt was the best experience of my life)
