Hi! I wanted to have some nice fresh mushies tonight, but had to harvest this morning. What's the best way to keep them fresh until this evening?

Throw em in the fridge if you want them fresh, other wise the outside gets kinda hard while the middle is gooie, it will make you wanna hurl cause the consistency isn't normal, thats what I think.....

why do you want your shrooms wet? They are easier to go down when they are dry.... if you store them wet they get really nasty after a while... they are just as strong dry as wet
just throw them in your favorite yogurt... it works wonders and eat aways

He is ingesting, this evening. It would take longer than that, to dry them.

Also drink orange juice with them if ya never have tried it, it seems to break things down faster IME making for a more intense rush when coming up.

I have read that sugar decreases the trip... like if your tripping balls sugar will help

Hard to say as my trips have most always been very intense, it just seems that I come up faster and harder when I do the OJ. I myself don't believe sugar can ever do anything to curb psilocybins potency at least not enough to really notice.

If you wanted them fresh for tonight, you should have waited to harvest and ate them right off the cake 
What would another 8 hours have mattered ?
I love the taste of fresh picked shrooms. They're 90% water . Don't taste near as back as after they've been dried and you're left with that concentrated shit taste,IMO .
Enjoy and Happy Trails

Of course, that was my desire, but overnight the veils had torn and they were sporulating. To be honest, I wasn't sure just how long I could've just left them on the cake like that. I notice they quickly begin to change color after sporulation begins, which seemed like a "bad thing" to me. I've never left them long after the veil tears, so wasn't sure what was possible. Would eight more hours have mattered? Don't the mushies die, or something, right after dropping their spores? I'd appreciate any info you could pass on to me regarding this topic. Yes, I'm a noob.

Ah! Well, now I know. Guess I asked the wrong question first.  But they seem to holding up well with a paper bag in the crisper. Just a little more than an hour to go! Hippie Chick: Just bring a six-pack - I'll make sandwiches.

I have to personally disagree with you about that. I find them almost tasty when fresh! It's been a revelation for me to try them this way. I'd always hated the taste of them dry, and always wondered how that first person choked enough down to experience that first trip. Now I know, they're not bad at all fresh. I doubt I can go back to dry again. But you're right - they won't stay fresh long, and that was my concern. As it happened, they stayed nicely in the fridge's crisper, in a brown paper bag. Me and my friend had a lovely trip. Thanks everyone!

shrooms with OJ is like the difference between coke and crack. There is another post about strong acidic drinks(lemon juice,OJ,cranberry) increasing the potency/come-up. I once blended 2.5g's with OJ and slammed it down. This was well before I read that post. I wasnt expecting it and the come-up was almost too intense for me.
