That's interesting to know. So you'd advise just portioning, and perhaps cutting them to 'weight' rather than straight up grinding?
Was just wanting to avoid having some strong doses and some weak, with some having caps and some stalks, but if it doesn't work like that then fair enough!

And jusssst to confirm, there's no difference in stem vs cap on terms of strength?

Yeah, if stipes didn't get you there, people would only eat caps. Your difference in potency is gonna be from mushroom to mushroom because of genetics from multi spore. Some people clone for size/weight and some for potency. I'm not into a 15g dried fruit, rather 3-5g of guaranteed space rockets.

Really useful info, thanks.

i want to go on record and say that ive been cultivating for 10+ years now and never once in my life used a dehydrator. i have always placed freshly harvested fruit in a large colander to let them dry slowly over the course of a few days and i have never experienced any potency loss. i harvest just before or immediately after the veil breaks and have always had very potent results. i made a tea with 0.5g last weekend and it was enough to have me mildly tripping. weak open eye visuals, but they were there
i tried the 0.5g as an experimental "micro dose" and wasnt looking to trip at all, but i did.

Stems have always seemed to be as strong as the caps in my experience

I used to dry with fans pointed at cardboard boxes, the mush dried cracker dry and then a few days later were bendy and flexible. Major potency loss.
Dehydrators are suggested for a reason, colanders however I don't see mentioned.
Don't take offense, just being straight.

My boggle with dehydrators is that itβs often said air is the enemy of potency but the standard dehydrators with a fan constantly blowing air over the mushies for 24 hoursβ¦.I would think a dehydration method with less air flow would be a better at conserving potencyβ¦
