Hi
I've got a question about drying and bruising. The shrooms I picked after the 2nd flush were full of vermiculite. Before drying them in a Tupperware box with silica grains, I scraped them clean with a knife. Afterwards not so smart idea because I bruised them.
During drying some of them turned black and started to smell. The black ones I threw away, but but the green ones I kept. They smell like gold fish food. Are they safe to eat?
What are the consequences of bruising? they get less strong? Or is the chance in contamination higher?
