there is no potency loss either way. You can fan them, use that nasty ass desiccant, or a dehydrator on high. You will not notice the difference.

Why would you even think that there would be?

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

Potency loss happens due to oxidisation of the actives. I have read about many people drying with dehydrators set upto 140F without noticing much potency loss.

Unless you are drying at ridicioulsy high temps, getting them dry quicker and into a sealed jar with damp rid or silica jar along with an oxygen eater, will keep them very good for a long time.

ok well that gives me another question. in the summer be and a friend found a farm like a company farm went there at night found some cow or horse manure not sure witch threw on some gloves n started lookin. we found a decent amount of mushrooms but i wasn't sure if they where cubs so i took them home washed them off then sat them under a heat lamp for about a day. then ate them and nothing really happen. do u think the heat lamp totally killed them or where they nothing?

Lol that's pretty brave. I don't think I'd eat something I wasn't sure of. And the heat lamp was probably a bad idea. Those things get pretty hot.
