You can consume them no matter how dry they are. But to store them I like to make sure they are really dry. So I just dry them until they crack when you break em in half. if they are too wet then they will be sort of soggy feeling.

Make a screen drying rack and just lay them out. I don't even find it that necessary to leave it under a heat source like a lightbulb, I'm usually not in a hurry.

Yes, regardless of what you hear... Direct light WILL destroy the psilocybin/psilocin.

ok, I just ground up 1/8 of shrooms that I am going to take with cranberry juice. THey were decently dry to begin with (crumbly but not enough to be snapped in half), so do you think leaving it in a shot glass in my draw for 6 hours they will be dry enough to be legit?

you might wanna try using a fan to dry em fast and if they are still not dry enough after that then use a desiccant chamber.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein "Fear is the great barrier to human growth." ~ Dr. Robert Monroe ~~~*Dosis sola facit venenum*~~~ *Check my profile to listen to my music*

I didn't mean to stick them directly under the light bulb like 2 inches away from the drying shrooms so that it's frying them. They don't necessarily need light though, I've slid the drying rack under my bed and it worked just fine too.
