Yeah, I said hay but clearly it wasn't meant to be feed to cows ^^. More precision are indeed welcomed. First, it's more straw than hay and not alfalfa. I basically took some cut dried herbs/plants, I cannot clearly tell you what species were in, but at the end, in volume, it was more or less 70% of "wild" straw, plus some other stuff. Quite close to actual straw, with probably a bit more nitrogen. For the ratio: noted :takingnotes:





Throw it out and start over.  You cannot just grab random things you cannot identify and grow mushrooms on them.  You must pick a TEK and follow the instructions explicitly without deviation until you have repeated successful grows and have a firm grasp on what you are doing.

100% safe ime.

Never got below freezing, but I would bet that in sealed jars they would be fine, based on no actual experience at all. Yes, I know about that one crappy study about storage that says otherwise. But read it critically and see that they air dried their mush at room temperature in the dark and stored them in Ziplock bags. So I don't trust their methods at all.

Just made some APE tea for later. There was some water evaporation after brewing. If I add extra water to it to get an easy dosage and mix it, does that dilute the tea equally?

How much do you trust what you're storing them in to be completely impermeable to moisture? I think it would be fine in mason jars and probably fine in mylar bags. Regular vacuum bags and Ziplocs will let in a little moisture over time even at stable temperatures. Maybe bags in a 5 gallon food storage bucket with more desiccant in the bucket?

(I've never tried to store them outside of my cool basement.)

Edit: man, I need to read better, since you totally specified jars.



I was going to put sealed jars in a food grade 5gal bucket. Probably capsules in the jars. Silica packets in the bucket for overkill. I accidentally ordered way more than I meant to, so why not. Lol

Huskies.... you know the answer to this riddle


Use your best Food Safety judgment.

As for if there is any doubt, in the back of your mind, it'll affect your trip  negatively.


Be sure to dehydrate 24 hours on high.



Fair. I think it will be fine. Some were a bit hollow inside and bruised, but I had hydrated the cakes while the pins were forming. Gonna make some fresh APE tea for later.



Just give it away to someone you don’t really like and see what happens! :confused:

...they were still fine?

How long did you boil them and how long should we?

I just got some oats but haven't tried them yet.

Bod's oat tek looks good and I've heard people recommend it:

Just don't store in vacuum sealed bags. I had some go bad after 3 years, and others just stored in zip lock bags were fine (maybe lower potency.)

This is apparently a known thing. Vacuum sealed bags  can hold a vacuum but let in moisture, but moisture doesn't go out. Rotten shrooms.

Several people have been recommending this
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BDDX27WT

vacuum sealer for mason jars, which is said to work great. I've only used it for a few days though so can't say, but some recommend it and have used it longer on this thread.
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/29080189#29080189

Read the directions, don't fill above the top screw line on the jars. It sure is fun to use.

Do 45 seconds for pint jars and 1 minute for quart jars.

Do need to screw the lid top back on though to help hold down and hold in vacuum. Can put a silica gel bag on top, but apparently that's optional.

Make sure for long term storage you dry between 165 and 180 F in dehumidifier for 24 hours at least. Then immediately put into your vacuum storage. (don't let them sit around absorbing water from air.)

Is the rust left on these lids going to cause me issues when I do pf?


This is before I had a chance to scrub them so they're dirtier than they would be. But there's going to be a point where I can't get it all and I'm just curious do I need to throw them out and start over or will they be fine when doing my brf?
