potency check
    #7901877 - 01/19/08 01:55 PM (16 years, 13 days ago)

so i'm about to get some mushrooms from a guy who had shrooms dried in open air. the picked mushrooms were chopped to 1cm pieces and then dried on a paper towel. then he kept them in a tiny bowl in a shady and cool place for almost half a year. he was super paranoid about them getting mold so he just kept them like that and no mold/weird smells have been detected on them.

it's about 2g-4g dried material and i suppose they haven't lost any potency but then again...

what do you think?

6 months in a non airtight bowl? I wouldnt pay full price, whatever that is but they still might work but prolly are a bit weaker.

Do you need to keep your dried stash of mushies in a airtight container in order to prevent them from losing potency? I just keep mine in shoe boxes, is that fine?

i use glass pint size mason jars.

one jars holds an oz. these work great, but for long term storage getting towards a year you wanna get a vaccume sealer with the jar attachment to get the mason jars airtight.
