what would be the best way to store about 2 8th's of dried mushrooms for about 2 - 3 weeeks? what would ensure that the potency would not come down at all

Dried shrooms are easily kept for up to a year with no noticable potency loss. Two good methods of storing dried mushrooms are in a rather airtight ziplock bag or a caning jar with a tight lid screwed on the top. Some dessicent in either container will prolong the storage life but make sure that it does not touch the shrooms directly or indirectly.

i agree, put in a ziplock bag, or a mason jar, with the rubber ring down so it seals once inside the freezer

put the decassient in net mesh (like the stuff for curtains) and the shrooms touch that. Is that bad?
What are the dangers of the shrooms touching the decassiant, as sometimes i dropped a few onto it?

I read at bluehoney.org that an excellent method of preserving mushrooms is to make blue honey. I know this isn't exactly what you're talking about but it is interesting nonetheless. If I remember correctly, it said put about an 1/8 of mushrooms in a jar of honey and let it sit for several days. After like five days or so, the honey will have turned blue and absorbed all of the magic trippy juice. Put a little on some toast or in your tea and you trip. The idea sounds intriguing, although I have never tried it. Has anyone?
