the best i think is to fan dry the shrooms for 24-48 hours or so and then use desiccant.

there is some good info on drying in the cultivation archive and also if you search for it.  :smile:

Airflow is the best method, other people like to use the sun dry method, some people like to use Dry-Rite or dessicants. It doesn't really matter, but with most all methods, the key ingredient is AIRFLOW.

I have dried all different kinds of ways. If you want to stay simple with the best results, just use a fan. It will take 2-5 days depending on the humidity.

DO NOT SUN DRY!!! unless you want your shrooms to loose potency

You will be ok if you simply let the dry on your desk, or whatever, I would put paper towels under the drying shrooms (they still drop spores, and it gets really messy)

Under fan is also good idea, its the way I do  :wink:

Dave, there are MANY types of drying desiccants, but I have no clue what you have in the UK, since I am in USA. Our brands our Damp Rid, and DrieRite, but I'm sure if you go onto ebay in the UK and type in desiccant, you will find what you are looking for. IF NOT!:

Go to your local store, or whatever, and ask them for a drying desiccant for your closet, looks like a tub, here is a link for the picture:

http://www.drierite.com/

:thumbup: hope it helps, if you need anything else, let me know.

I just got done with drying a batch of shrooms with crystal kitty litter... it works really nicely, it's just silica beads! Fuck damprid and drierite... Those things cost a lot and can be quite messy... they work good, but they're also expensive and wasteful... You can get a big container of crystal kitty litter for extremely cheap, and it lasts forever... And if you want to re-use it, just lay them on a baking pan and bake at 200 in the oven for an hour or two... voila, ready for the next batch.

Could be a break through in drying technology for shrooms?!

Kitty Litter... what the hell are they going to come up with next? :smile:

Not just kitty litter, the see-through crystal bead kind.
