Please help i think my Mushrooms went bad
    #26697729 - 05/26/20 06:53 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

I unfortunately forgot about some mushrooms I was picking nearly 2 weeks ago. I semi dried them but then forgot about them and left them for a week in not good drying conditions.

Now they all black with little white worms over them. Are they still save to consume or do i have to throw them?

By “little white worms” do you mean maggots?

:whathesaid:

You’ll probably get sick if you eat them. If maggots are proliferating, that’s a bad sign.

I don’t know enough about mold and how heat affects it to answer that. But I do know how toxic molds can be. So, personally, I would not consume those in any way shape or form.

OP, the maggots will not hurt you, they are common on wild fruits.  Plenty of protein in them.  I used to get those on liberty caps.

If they don't smell bad they're probably still active.  Try making tea, that'll at least kill any of the guests you have. :cookiemonster:

I agree. Don't eat the shrooms, just eat the maggots.

Make a tea. Boil it longer than usual. Test small volume for effects. Observe feelings and make a decision about future of the tea (sink or body). :thumbup:

I’m not used to wild fruits so I was wrong in my assumptions that maggots are a sign of something bad going on.

OP, listen to Primal, he’s a lot more experienced than myself. Just stay safe!

We always used to get loads of maggots in liberty caps; didnt see them though until the tea was boiling, then loads would float to the surface. Last few years I’ve dried and stored some liberty caps, and the cardboard boxes for air drying would always be full of dead maggots after a day of drying.

But yuk though :eek:

The maggots IME didn't hurt anything much - they are just immature flies munching away on the fruits, which is what they do.  If you have fungus gnats in a grow it doesn't mean the grow is dying, these pernicious pests are drawn strongly to the smell of mushrooms which is what their larvae eat. The main problem is "Ick I'm eating maggots". :laugh2:

They dont look too bad. I would make a tea then filter off the maggots (haha). The bluing is normal for shrooms. Maggots love shrooms, dont be afraid of them, they are just bugs. Just make sure your shrooms arent moldy. Check for mold before making a tea.

Lol yes yes bugs generally won't hurt you. Maggots generally won't. But that's not the issue here. Bugs are normal but there could be mold since it's been two weeks without proper drying. Seems unnecessarily risky.

I get bugs are mostly just protein but I'm gonna have a hard time eating bugs for the sake of a trip.
