Spore supplier of Non Active Spores
    #15843370 - 02/21/12 04:07 PM (12 years, 1 month ago)

Hello there,

Is there a professional reputable supplier of spores that have a pretty large database of non active spores?

All the spore supplier's I can find, their main thing is selling actives.

I'd like to find uncommon, exotics, edibles, poisonous fungi, etc. Stuff like that, mainly just for microscopy, and herbarium use.


any suggestions?

I've kinda been on the lookout for a good site for non-actives too.  Wanna get some prints and not rely on grocery store transfers.

But still you are missing my point. That is a sad collection to choose from.. Those are not very hard to get species and the price is out of this world...

I am looking for sites that specialize in NON ACTIVES..


@CMOS
That crocery store transfer Idea is pretty good, should of thought of that. Off the top of my head I can get Agaricus bispora, enoki, shitake, maitake, a couple others.  good idea. CMOS

Yeah I've only done king oysters from the grocery store...worked alright tho...took sample from the inside stem -> cardboard -> to agar -> to grain.  Once it fruits I can get a good print and start over from there.

About to spawn to some straw or coffee grounds + cardboard.  I would be stoked if it fruited well on the grounds/coffee cause I can get massive amounts for free.  I've heard Kings don't do to well on coffee, but I've never tried. :shrug:

They got a bunch of stuff at my local grocery, probably will try lions mane next.

Mind explaining to me in PM the cardboard technique? I have some Pheonix Oyster LC in a vacutainer that Id like to try a couple things with, including that.

Looks like I might have a good business opportunity here since no one specializes in edibles/novelties/poisonous references, etc. Maybe, just maybe.



I was hoping there might be a university herbarium or something that sells spores on contact, like some herbarium's do with samples.

The cardboard transfer was super easy.  I've seen lots of people transfer oyster to cardboard. Here is what I did. 

-boiled 2x2 piece of condegrated cardboard for 20min in water
-peeled off the top layer to expose the "wavy" middle section
-placed in a new ziplock bag
-sliced small chunk of inner stem while in glovebox
-did a quick dip in h202
-placed on cardboard in ziplock
-done!

Oyster colonizes fine on cardboard, and the cardboard is pretty contam resistant.  Took a couple days to grow out, then I transferred a piece of that mycilium to an agar plate.

I was bored once and just tried throwing an oyster pin on wet cardboard in open air.  Grew out fine just sitting in a cracked tupperware container.  It just sat there till it totally dried out a month later.

I'm sure going from LC to the cardboard would work out fine too!

Nice thanks a lot CMOS. I appreciate the help. Gotta try that out! Will that work with any wood lovers?

@k00laid

This isn't a question about sponsors so I don't see how it would fit there..

I have looked through all the sponsors and none of them have what I am asking about. They are ALL directed at Actives, with just a couple of non-actives, and the non-actives are WAY too expensive... Plus I am not looking for that stuff. I have a source that sells all those edibles for $6 each...

I am looking to get maybe some of the Destroying Angel prints, or a Deadly Galerina, and some random non edibles, stuff like that.

I wouldn't really be the person to ask, I've only just started messing around with edibles recently.  I know most oysters grow on almost anything. I don't know if other species are as vigorous.

Edibles are traded in cultures, not spores.  If you want spores for some reason, you'll probably want to collect them yourself.

just a shot in the dark but could you possibly purchase viable spores and keep them refrigerated untill there no longer viable, I have always heard roughly 6 months.
or does the end of viability trigger decomposition possibly.

@CMOS
Lol. Would be nice to have for herbarium, and microscopy reference, to compare any I may find in the field myself.

@RR Thanks for the info, and yeah, I figured I would end up having to... But I am limited by my area, as unfortunately I cant travel the world in search of prints.. Was just curious if there was a source hidden in the "magical" sources.
I would rather have spores sometimes even for some edibles I may intend to cultivate because cultures are someone else's isolated strains, Id rather have multispore inoculation and do the isolation myself.

I would always rather have spores than cultures in any instance, considering I get the spores for reference and microscopy, and anything else (like cultures), can potentially come from the spores itself providing me with whatever I need. 

Plus like I mentioned the Cultures being sold are so unbelievably expensive, considering I can get all those edibles offered by many sources from spores that cost 6$ each that could make me almost unlimited cultures.

And not really looking for edibles all that much unfortunately. More interested in uncommon species.


I guess I just need to get sources of random people around North America and Europe that will sell/trade/give/lend me spores of these random species of their areas. Id even be interested in peoples collections of spores they may print when they go to identify a wild mushroom. simple stuff like that.

for sure...when I was first looking for p cyans I was really scared of Galerinas ( I hadn't seen them side by side before )  I got a sure ID on some cyans and can tell the differences now, but it would of been nice if I could take a print and check with a scope.

Oh yeah a Jack'O Lantern print would be awesome too! As well as any Bioluminescent's.

I just figured there would be at least one source that sells stuff like this, considering spores are sold for "Microscopy research only" it would seem there would be spores for actual research besides psilocybian mushrooms...
