'printing' to water. what happened?

On my fourth attempt to print into water, no spores have dropped after 48hours. Well, maybe some, but not enough to see. My other three attempts went well enough. But this time there just isn't anything in the water. Is there anything that might keep a cap from dropping spores like temps, humidity or light? It was opened far enough. The veil had completely broken and I let it sit for two days. Any ideas so I can avoid whatever it was I did in the future?

Sometimes a cap just won't drop spores no matter what you do. Sounds like that's what happen to you. I've had a entire batch of b+ do that before.

well crap. that was my last flush before I leave town for a couple weeks. blast! now to hunt down the prints on paper I hid from myself... thanks for the info Magash. always helpful you are. should I maybe look into another strain, or is this something that can 'just happen'? psychoslut: its just like printing to paper, but instead you suspend the cap over some sterile water. then just suck the water into a clean syringe after spores drop. takes out the middle step of syringe creation. its quite handy if you don't need long-term spore storage.

you know it's something that can just happen. With those b+ I was telling ya about I managed to get enough spores off of 4 attempted prints to make one syringe. I made 4 casings from that and the shrooms dropped a ton of spores so go figure. Just one of those goofy things that happens with this little hobby.

Thanks again, Magash. I was wondering because this happeend to me with b+ as well. It just seems so weird because my other dudes from the flush are throwing the purple stuff all over my desiccant chamber. Go figure. Guess I'll just have to plan for this in the future and make some prints on paper as back up.

Wow, that's a snazzy setup you've got there, agar. How big is that sun-tea jar you use? All of the ones I have seen would be a bit too... ENORMOUS for something like what I do. I am guessing you got a tiny jar or make a LOT of syringes.

I used a closet once setup a nice little lab trouble was all the shit that was in there ended up in the bedroom that pissed off the GF then I ended up dumping her as she was getting in the way of my sterile culture technique! Ya I got priorities too!!!"

A liquid culture couldn't breath through one of those septa plugs could it? ie: Would you be able to use test tubes with septa plugs for liquid cultures?

I've had very good luck with spore syringes.I hope I got this right. I can make a rack or screen to put 7 to 10 caps of the same strain on.Let them drop their spores.Then make a lot of syringes with it.
Cool
