Amanita muscaria season is starting here.
Does anyone have an interest?
If so I'll pick and dry some.
I'm going out to pick some today - that should be doable.
I've never tried it...but my g/f and I have been curious. May I have a sample? I have neat stuff to trade! PM me if you want. Thanks!
I found about 10 pounds today. Shouldn't be a problem.
I havent tried them either, but am very interested. Ive PMed you a trade list.
Thanks,

I hope you've got your drying technique down TooStoned. Those suckers mush up quick if you don't get on em.... they is just loaded with water. I think lizjah used to dry em with a fan in his oven at a low heat to some success but don't quote me on that one.
If'n you've got a good drying method, let me know. am looking forward to them starting to pop up around here myself. I think we've even got the pantherina's around p-town.
I borrowed TroutMask's dehydrater. It seems to work well on its highest heat setting. Yea, they are at least 90% water. 10 pounds wet came out to about 1 pound dry.

Holy shit! Just one pound?
Oh yea, I found about 4 dried ounces of panthers around my house and Trout's. They say they are even more "poisionous" than the flavivolvata varieties I have been finding. I've been busy as of late with a few things so haven't had time to try them. Will report back.
