So how does a dehydrator hurt the planet? This is the first I've ever heard anyone say this. I don't see how it could it's just a heater and a fan.

Hell yeah... I only eat raw food and I light my bong with a magnifying glass and the sun. I'm hardcore. :smile:

I guess they meant dehydrators use electricity, while the sun could do it for free. The fact is that dry moving air is the trick, not simply heat.

Desiccant costs $$$ and presumably has to be replaced regularly.

I'll probably go the dehydrator route if it's really true sun drying decreases potency.



$5 for 2l and you use about 100ml per dry. I didn't buy the fan or the box and it uses no heat which is better for potency.




such lies heat doesnt hurt potency do a search......why bother with desiccants why i ask why!.....when you can spend 30 bucks and be set for over 5 years with a simple dehydrator.

nesco snackmaster dehydrator rox the cock, set it at 95*F.



I second that. It's what I use. It costs $19 on ebay and works miracles. Cracker dry... even HUGE, thick, and very wet shrooms dry to the point that they just crumble when squeezed after just 2 days in there. However, if he wouldn't even spend $5 at home depot for a huge jug of desiccant that can be used about 20 times... I doubt he's spending $19 on a dehydrator that can be used for years. Some people will avoid spending a penny even if they have a million dollars in a bank when it will be more then useful and fits their needs perfectly... I'll never understand it.

id say this: just use a fan and itll work regardless of the location. then one can judge off the 24 hours of fan what cracker dry really means and how to maintain that, with desiccant or dehydrator or whatever other means... and peace.

mine dry in 7 or 8 hours on lowest setting with snackmaster, with 2 extra trays even, and that's fully loaded. I have no patience to wait 24 hours

I probably go the extra mile on dryness tbh. I know this post is old rn but my idea of cracker dry the caps almost crumble to dust and the stem bends slightly then breaks in two with some pressure. It always takes less time for caps to dry then stems. I use a small heater from walmart that has a fan on it i put the mushrooms in a plastic bin a foot or so away and crank the heater and its fan all the way. This makes them dry just right It takes about 10hrs to dry them right. I get told all the time that I have the best around but I think it's cause everyone gets more weight really cause mine are so dry. I mean theoretically the ratio is supposed to be 10 wet lbs would be one dry lbs. So if you weigh before and after you can get a judge on what "cracker dry" is but I like to go the extra mile for all my fans at home.

So your first post was necroing a 13 year old thread to tell us you sell the best shrooms around at 10% original weight in 12 hours with your Wal-Mart heater? Cracker dry the stems don't bend, they break, even the big log thick ones. They just snap when you try to bend them. Anything else isn't cracker dry and if you store them like that everything will turn spongy unless you throw a desiccant in with it.

Probably using Google. You can find some old ass posts with Google. The search function can dig up some old shit too. I have found 20 year old threads through the search function.

BTW I adjusted your rating.

Thank you I’ve been meaning to change the hasty one I gave you after I read that thread where you mentioned your dope rats and had to do math for people that didn’t believe you.

10/10 i read like 8 comments on here before realizing it was 13 years old lmao.

Also wtf, I always thought cracker dry means they bend a bit and dont really *crumble* like crackers. I'd throw mine in the dehydrator(air fryer/toaster oven/dehydrator 12 in 1 thing) 130* for 24 hours and they would still be at the bendy stage, so I put them in containers with desiccant packets for weeks and still no crumble, id be pulling them apart for tea.

das wack
