Silica gel, how to remove it?

I just dried out an ounce of cambodian cuebensis i got from my first grow! But i dried them in silica gel (crystals) but i am not sure how to remove it all now, can i wash it off? do i have to brush it all off?
Also,
the first couple times i did shrooms they were in chocolate and now i want to put mine in chocolate. Is there any speacial trick to doing it? Will the hot melted chocolate ruin the mushrooms?
Thanks

and you aren't supposed to dump your shrooms into the silica gel... just put them in a tray above it.. or on a paper towel on the gel... man, that's gotta be a mess... you'll have to brush it all off or get a can of air and spray it off with the air....
wow, that sucks.

I would never use silica gel, why mess with all that,
For $40 you have a life time, of drying shrooms


You'll never look back

that about sums it up...still don't know if i would use them cause they'll have chemical traces on them still.

Hard to say, to be safest throw them out.. but I think that would be out of the question for you, maybe a rinse with water really quick then air dry them or somthing

As said never place in direct contact with the desiccant. BTW desiccant is very useful in the humid summers and as with herbs slow dry preserves alot.
