A few shroom questions
#27072363 - 12/04/20 06:02 PM (3 years, 1 month ago) |

Does the fresher the substrate produce better yields of fruits?
Can you over dehydrate shrooms?
What is the shelf life of cracker dry shrooms?
Is there anything I can do with my cracker dry shrooms to preserve them longer without grinding them up?

Does the fresher the substrate produce better yields of fruits? -Old stored coir/verm will work just the same as new coir/verm with pasteurization.
Can you over dehydrate shrooms? -Certainly not, I usually dehydrate my fruits for 24hrs.
What is the shelf life of cracker dry shrooms? -For all time and eternity until they turn to dust and blow away.
Is there anything I can do with my cracker dry shrooms to preserve them longer without grinding them up? -Sealed within Glass jars they'll last you for a very long time. -Do not use plastics to seal and save your mushrooms. -They are porous and will allow moisture into the bag, even the vacuum sealed bags.

That's the Irish flag. Green white orange. Italian is green white red. I was born in Galway, raised in Letterfrack.

If you're talking about coir, not really.

Not really, although I think it's better practice to get them to peak dryness and stop there.

Indefinite, meaning "not definite." It's a pretty long time though.

It depends on how much you want to invest in preserving them.

Where if you're alone, you know, you either come through it or you die, but in any case you avoid the fuss.'" - Terrence McKenna

If glass jars make them last a very long time that’s good enough for me. I had them all at 125 for 24 hours in the dehydrator. Thanks 🙏🏼
