using a dehydrator is the only real way. anyone who says anything about over drying is retarded.
the oven tek idea works but is a pain to have a oven on and ajar for 24hrs.
other methods(desiccant chambers/fan drying) will only give your shrooms a few weeks shelf life. if that.

What you may not know is the topic of drying fruits has come up every few days since the beginning of time. There have been many test, comparisons, etc. The current consensus is not only is a dehydrator the best method to preserve your hard work, time and money, but the best way to use one is to run it as hot as possible for 24 hours.

This is the law.

Thank you, these n00bs are something else Jesus fucking Christ.

Piss off with that ghetto computer fan bullshit, none of us here care because we all own real dehydrators.

You want to hit them with 150+

It denatures enzymes responsible for degradation, of potency, while there's still moisture in the cells. Faster drying & heat = more potency.

I think people are more worked up that you come in here brand new and try to pedal some method and haven't bothered to research anything in our community yet.

It's like walking into a biker bar and playing some maroon 5.

Thank you, thats the first useful information here.

I didnt know about the potency loss. Rotting is actually not a problem here.

And I have read a lot about drying techniques. I DID my research, dont worry. Here and in other forums. E.g. some people just use a fan, without any heat. And they dont complain about problems (like potency loss), so I didnt care yet.

Its helpful to know WHY a technique is potentially bad, not just saying its shit.

And I dont like the approach that a dehydrator is THE ONLY WAY and everything else is shit by definition.

Noobs need information, like bodhisatta provided it.

Bashing produces just confusion and reactance, but not improvement. Rotting e.g. (like you mentioned it) is NOT a problem here.

That's why I banned you for 7 days.

Telling someone, especially a noob to fuck off is wholeheartedly not ok. We are adults. Use your grown up words ffs.

When I was a noob I dried fruits ontop of my old style monitor. It 'worked' for the short term but 1 trip to goodwill and 5bux later I got a dehydrator.


We all start somewhere. Bruh. Get a dehydrator.

What the hell guys some of these replies are so ridiculous.

There is nothing wrong with the OPs idea if the intent is to dry out a few grams hassle free which he clearly is. It's literally a free resource that he was clever enough to utilize. A gaming PC fan blows heated air and that's all a dehydrator is there is nothing special about it. With a little context you can see he only intends to dry a few grams with this and it will work fine. You can clearly see that this worked for him. Nowhere did he say to stuff it, look at his pics if you lay out a few mushrooms like that it will work.

You guys getting all high and mighty on this poor dude is really bad form and makes you look like a bunch of jerks.

I applaud your clever method to dry a few grams in a pinch. Sure you might not have the absolute 100% best quality in the end but they should still be plenty good.

Hoooweee! Banjhakri!
What a bashing!
So...how is the potency of yer shrooms and what did you grow?
I ask because, my lesson learned was because my PESA and RW lost
so much potency from taking too long to dehydrate and not to cracker dry.
I was eating 7grams "dry" and thinking meh. In the end I tossed all those.

Sorry yer getting so bashed, but really, yer lucky it's not a biker bar!

If you can't afford a dehydrator maybe you shouldn't grow drugs




Hey guy that doesn't know how to spell "bodhisattva"...

This IS my dehydrator. Its the exactly same technique. Sorry for being so smart that I can build my own without having to let others do it (e.g. underpaid chinese factory workers).

Btw, I recognize lots of arrogant people here on the board, maybe they shouldn't DO drugs...




I just thought this was a interesting, what, 5th post.

Anyways I said use a oven.

When I started to grow a mushroom, I thought a lot and experimented.I dried the mushroom under the fan, just on the shelf and thought that this is correct and the mushrooms are very good.Then I came here and carefully studied and listened to the advice of the oldest inhabitants of the forum.I bought my first dehydrator and believe me, the mushrooms became very strong after such drying.This is the earth and the sky.And the main thing is that here everything is thoroughly clearly explained about the importance of this moment in drying.In our country, there are several forums where there is this misconception about prolonged drying and high temperature allegedly killing the right substances.On by my own example, I try to convey to our brothers the truth of fast drying.Thank you if you understand.

It's mainly because it's a herd community here. If the popular kid bashes someone the peons have to also.

Applying air over shrooms isn't new or rocket science. Using a device that's already pumping hot dry moving air is efficient and doesn't degraded the potency any more than one that was dried faster, just like the old dumb ass debate over dehydrating without the heater on/off when they argued about drying with higher heat would degrade potency.

This place is great for some info, but shitty for discussion.
