Although i may advise others in a general way regarding all types of mushroom grows, and may even post question from other forums about growing "active" mushrooms, i only grow non-"active" mushrooms and edibles.

A fan is a great way, fan dry them till there pretty dry then transfer to a box with descicent, they will be cracker dry in 24 hours.

If you got big shrooms, you can split the stalks down the middle to help.

what about a dehydrator? I just found my old one but the problem is, you can't turn off the heat. I really want to use it because it can hold a shitload of shrooms and I know that there is a debate whether or not heat will fuck up the potency, does anyone have any hard evidence either supporting or denying this claim?

Everyones experience is slightly different, i found that when i dried my shrooms infront of the warm updraft of oven at the lowest settng, (which variod from 80F - 100F) my mushrooms didnt seemt o work at all, i assumed they got to hot.

Then i fan dried them like i said above and they dried great, but i thought that the potency wasnt to great, i had a 10 gram fruit that i dried which i ate and had very slight effects, the 10 gram usually gets me trippig balls.

Alot of people have used dehydrators with great results, i would say if u can keep the temp below 95 then it should be ok, u could just disconnect the heating element, or if your good at electronics u could rig something up to adjust it.

Psilocin Dreams,
We are not going to start this debate in this thread. It has been documented through hundreds of people that dehydrating your mushrooms at temps of 140 or less has shown no noticeable loss of potency. Now this is not to say that some psilocybin isn't loss through oxidation, but certainly not to any level that the average grower would cease using a dehydrator all together.

Please do a search on this highly debated topic.

Besides with heat (way more heat than that) psilocybin dephosphorylates(sp) psilocin

psilocybin + heat = O2P-OH + 4-HO-DMT

i had a dehydrator with heat that you couldn't adjust, it was just str8 HOT in there and my poor guys looked so ugly afterwards, and sometimes they shrunk way to small and got soggy,


NEVER AGAIN .........never



maybe a dehydrator where you can adjust heat will be better for me.


but, I've seen the two box fans with a screen set up, seems like a good idea.

Using a fan works for me, I live in AZ. Lay some chicken wire over a box fan, then get some 2X4s or something similar and put them under the fan to allow air flow.
