Can dried shrooms go bad?
    #23979843 - 01/03/17 08:02 PM (7 years, 27 days ago)

Hey there guys I was wondering if dried mushrooms can go bad and what are the signs of them going bad and at what point would it be advisable not to eat them? I understand proper care and storage they can last according to most pretty much indefinitely, however I have some concerns about how some caps have darkened specifically noticing black tinges on the gills i hadn't before. a friend said oxidation can do this? just wished to confirm as I believe it better safe then sorry....also what is the worst that can happen from eating a mushroom that has gone bad I mean is it anymore then eating a moldy piece of bread? (besides the fact not feeling good while tripping as that is without a doubt no fun)

Make sure they are cracker dry, keep them away from moisture and oxygen ( so potency doesn't diminish). I used to put O2 absorbers and dry rice in the bag.

That black may be spores.  Is it somewhat violet/purple/black?

They have been well kept i spaced a silica gel packet or rice initially so they had gotten slightly pliable but they still snap just a slight bend before they do. and yeah it's not like a mold kind of black just a darkened somewhat of a bruised like black

All live bacteria is killed when they are dried. If they're still dry, you are good to go!:thumbup:
You can always boil them in a tea as a safe guard.

Now that is exactly the answer I've been hoping for. I was unsure if bacteria could still be present or occur after they've been dried..Thanks a lot man! Gonna go ahead an have me a nice little snow trip today

If the black tinges are from oxidation, you may being facing some potency loss.  I definitely saw that at the tail-end of my first crop.  Let us know how it goes!

Bruising isn't related to potency, or oxidation. Rather it seems to trap a double bond wavelength just like a quinone. Quinones are a pigment that can turn blue when digested by enzymes.

Psilocin is literally 5mg per 10g fresh of fruit body, it seems very unrealistic that such a small concentration could bruise an entire fruitbody almost black at times. Mycelium can bruise to shit too, and it has much less actives to mycelial surface area. In order for mycelium to bruise like it does with barely any actives, chances are it's a pigment.

Also proven because if you've grown enough, you can have fruits that bruise to shit and kick some ass, while others that suck shit, and of course you can have fruits that don't bruise and rock, while having very shitty fruits that don't bruise as well. All of these variations can even be found on a single flush of MS.

Correlation doesn't equal causation. Chances are, you just had bad genes.

I have ate 7+, probably more, year old shrooms.  No problems and no noticable loss in potency.  They where bone dry in glass jar with desiccant pack in the bottoms.

When in doubt, ask!

That's why these resources are here. Better to ask and seem like a worry wart, then throw up while almost tripping for hours on end! :spun:
