Help Please - May have screwed up the drying
    #26492892 - 02/19/20 06:47 AM (3 years, 11 months ago)

Hi there, been a long time followers of many threads up first time poster as I just attempted my first grow. They are Golden Teachers and the primary goal is to grind them up, capsule them and then use them to microdose for an extended period of time. Maybe a trip or two :mushroom2:

Everything went great, 6 jars all blew up in a great way with no contamination as you can see in the pics. I harvest the first wave last night and was gonna air dry until I got a dehydrator today. Most were 70% dry from air drying for 6 hours when I found a bunch of sealed silica packets (like close to 70) from a buddy. I opened the bag and threw then in a Rubbermaid tub as I went to bed. I decided that I'd get the dehydrator when I woke up.

I woke up about 7 1/2 hrs later and felt them and they are fully wet again, the silica packets were a dud. I freaked obviously and search the internet and these forms like crazy but wanna make sure that I didn't bone my entire batch and that they wouldn't start to rot in that short period of time. What are you're thoughts, safe as long as I get right back to the drying method? They don't seem to have any blackness growing on them but they are really bruised!

As of right now I quickly threw them on the fan dry method again and am going out to get dehydrators right after I post this. After 20 minutes they have dried out significantly and a good deal are brittle, but the cluster bases at a number of stems are still pretty wet.

Thanks for the help in advanced!

I'm confused, there's no way something would go from 70% dry back to 100% wet.

Silica doesn’t dry anything except air. It’s good for keeping stuff dry, not drying stuff.

Throw them in the oven on low, with the oven door cracked.

Thanks for the quick responses. And yeah, it was a dumb move. I have a friend who gave me a tub of grow materials and I saw them unopened in there and thought they would do the trick but when I woke up they were all rubbery again. I just felt them and they are drying back out again just fine in the fan method, I can do the oven method right now as well as I have the morning off, how long?

Just wanna make sure I didn't already screw up this batch or if 7ish hours where they regathered moisture could have potentially screwed them.

The other two cakes just produced by the way and I picked. Looking great :laugh: I'm attaching those pics below.

Every minute they remain undried, they lose a bit of potency.

12-24h in the oven will do. Do 24 at 100-200F to be sure, you’ll be golden.:mushroom2:

Ok, well that's not the end of the world, at least I'll be safe and they are just for Micro Dosing anyways. It would suck to get ready to fully trip and the potency be diminished.

Yeah, probably effected the potency.  Fan method is not a very good method at all.
