“Shelf life” of unharvested and undried
    #28012276 - 10/23/22 10:41 AM (2 years, 2 months ago)

So I’ve been involved with a new girlfriend for a few months, and she lives a little ove an hour away. I’ve been splitting time between our 2 houses since I work from remote.

Over the last month I’ve had a few shoeboxes go a bit longer than normal before harvesting, and my harvested freshies were in paper bags in the fridge longer than normal before getting into the dehydrator.

Nothing seemed contaminated or rotten. Am I risking potency loss? The longest mushrooms in the fridge were 13 days old, and the late harvested mushrooms were picked health but the boxes were painted with spores.

I tried searching this topic but was not coming up with anything definitive.

Thanks for any insight.

Some oxidation of the actives will happen, probably not anything real noticeable. Running them through a dehydrator for 24hrs is the best way for long term storage. But basically they're like any mushroom you buy as food. They rot like vegetables then can make ya sick just like any food.

I would describe the mushrooms in the fridge as something I’d eat as a food mushroom. They lost a little water weight but seemed healthy. They went in the dehydrator yesterday and are coming out today.
