I go 24hrs just to be safe, is your jar lid sealing up well. That would be the only thing I could think of unless you didn't have them completely dry before storing.

if they aren't cracker dry they aren't dry enough. definitely shouldn't be getting bendy. dehydration times (ime) vary on how many shrooms you have drying at the time. if it's just a few, it usually only takes me 12 hours. if i have a full 4 trays of mushies i'm usually drying for at least 24, sometimes longer. i also live i a very dry climate so YMMV. i don't think you can over-dry your mushrooms, so it's better to leave them drying a bit longer than to remove them early

10-12 hours works fine for me most of the time. I space my fruits out on the dehydrator pretty well. The Presto dehydro is way faster than my other dehydrator. The "Gastrorag". Such a weird brand name lol.
