K i have been fan drying for 2 days and they are a little dry still bendy. Would it be ok to set them on top of my computer monitor or is that unsafe and will break down the philosybin?

I don't think that's necessary. Just keep fan drying them, they will get cracker-like soon.

Light and heat will destroy the active atoms if that's what your wondering. But the way your' doing it now sounds good, place some Silicate baggies around them.
It's those baggies you get in a vitamin jars, or when you buy shoes.

Put them in a sealed tub with some descicent after they have been fan dried, this should get them cracker dry.

K I have tried my method. I really don't like dessicants cause even if I fan dry em for a day or 2 then throw them in the chamber. They never have touched the dessicants but I can kinda taste em and it taste odd lol. Well I did my computer monitor thing after I fan dried them for a day and it works!!!. They get cracker dry in a day or less and I can't tell a lose in potency, it was weird I ate 2.4g/dried. Drank 1 beer and started trippin my ass off in 20 minutes no more. I don't know why it kicked in a little faster compared to the 4 days of fanning to get them cracker dry and when we ate those it took like it seemed a hour and a half before we tripped. I know one thing my fuckin head is pounding!

#1 Those "Atoms" you speak of are molecules #2 Psilocybin dephosphorylates(sp)into psilocin with heat #3 Both psilocybin and psilocin are prety stable and not efected by light the way LSD is.
and on a side note. LSD starts to break down around 175 degrees Fahrenheit

I put mine on top of the puter if there's not too many and in front of a small heater set at 80 degrees F. No drop in potency. just remember to turn them over a few times. this helps them dry faster.

SammyLC this isn't true information. Have you ever Dehydrator dried several pounds of mushrooms?
I have, not one bit of potency lost. My dehydrator is generally set at 155*F to dry stuffed trays of fungus.
bluing and heat have no ill affect on psilocybin the psilocin might convert to psilocybin, but that is ok.
so, please only post true information in the future.
