Question About Drying Procedure For P.Cyans
    #23942138 - 12/20/16 12:25 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Recently found my first P.cyans and went about drying them, but had to leave town for the weekend shortly thereafter. I gave them a low (barely any) heat in the oven with a box fan blowing over them for a bit, then transferred them to foil in front of a box fan in my room before leaving for the weekend. Unfortunately, one of my roommates turned off the fan last night before my return, so they sat out in open air with no fan for ~24 hour.

Now, IIRC oxygen exposure degrades psilocybin (and/or psilocin(?)) content, but I wanted to err on the side of not having these rot, hence opting for the weekend-long fan dry.

Should I be concerned about contaminants/bacteria from improper drying if they were out in still air and not under a fan for ~24 hours? They're fairly cracker dry upon my arrival tonight.

Just want to be damn sure since this is my first time foraging actives.

They will be ok. Finish drying with that white descidant stuff sealed in a jar.  Contaminants aren't to worry, potency losses  is.

:whathesaid:

i air dried a large harvest of spring ovoids outdoors over two dry days.  they got some sunlight (bad), a lot of breezy air (bad), and it took a while to dry (bad) and they're still very good.
