extracting pure for long time storage?

[Ultima]

hey guys, i was just wondering which was a better way to keep mushrooms for long term? im going to be growing my own very soon, and was wondering if the psilocin and Psilocybin would keep longer if i were to extract them? or if its a better idea to dry/refrigerate/freeze? any input would be appreciated. thanks!

dry em and keep em in a ziplock baggy some people put em in the fridge ive read but thell keep for months in a scealed baggy. in a safe droor outa sight

dry them, keep in a dark, cool, dry place (sealed off in a box in the fridge for example). Extraction is not really feasible imho, and when you dry them they stay good for months (if not longer).

to extraxt pure psilisybin youd have to be s scientist or at least a knowledgable science person with the right equipment. they gave like 28 people in some test at harvard university with timothy leary and some other people. some got pure clear psilisybin in a cup. others got a pleacebo. you can look it up on u tube. its preaty cool it was conducted in a church by harve\ard or somthing like that.

alright, thanks guys! i was reading up on erowid that you can do a simple citric acid extraction, using vinegar, grain alcohol, or wood alcohol. but that doesnt really matter anymore, ill just dry them and keep em stashed away for a rainy day. thanks agian!

Make sure to dry using a dessicant. I wouldn't imagine a psilobin extraction to be much harder than most other extracts.
