Hey everybody just showing those of you who wanted me to keep yall updated plus there is another one of everything dried and on a scale from the 1st flush well b+ arnt too bad now are they

02-06-07, 10:00

nice, but i think those should be dried a little more..

shortyisdaman · 02-06-07, 10:02

um they are dry theyv been sitting on top of somthing exposed to open air for like a week so i think there dry lol

boots420 · 02-06-07, 10:22

first off. nice grow there. a most excellent job.

as for the dryness thing...... are the cracker dry? this means that when you snap a stem in half its "cracks", and brakes into two pieces. i'm not sure this can be obtained by just letting the sit in open air.

the best thing to do is get some damprid. found in you local store in the painting section. put some damp rid in an airtight container along with you mushrooms and they'll be "cracker dry" in a day or so.

02-06-07, 10:28

yeah, thats what i meant.. cracker dry..
the stems dont look that dry yet..
i normally split the stem in half to speed the drying a bit..
the cap dries up really fast.. the stem takes a little longer

SharkieJones · 02-06-07, 10:47

Yeah those definetly neeed some more drying. They may seem dry but when you put em in a bag for any length of time they will start to rot. Nice grow though.

SharkieJones · 02-06-07, 10:51

Nice.

Hippie3 · 02-06-07, 11:08

use a paper bag and they won't rot if there's just a bit of residual moisture as the paper wicks it away for evaporation

python · 02-06-07, 11:25

Open air will work..........just think about what is occuring-----water molecules within the fruitbody are being broken ad carried away from the molecules in the air

However, obviously faster movement of air by a fan will speed these things up..........

breaking the mushrooms in half, may (in some peoples opinions) allow for potential magic loss from too much oxidation

and hey---you dont have to dry anything if ya dont want----- Nice work, enjoy

Looking good Shorty...!

What kind of Pan strain did you order for your next grow ?
