Well we are newbs to mycology (My girl and I share the account) we have been cultivating ganja for a few years and recently have taken an interest in mushroom cultivation. We like the site and appreciate the wealth of knowlege found here. a couple questions that wern't in the FAQ section: first, I live near a micro brewery and am a baker so I use spent grain I get for free in some of my hearth breads and was wondering if it would make a good base to grow shrooms. the other question stems from my own parinoia I recently ordered spores (first time) from ralphs and I dont live far from his location (one state over) and it's winter here. I wonder what the cold tolerence for the spores are and if they could be damaged in shipping or setting in my mailbox. thanks for any imfo you can offer and we look forward to being a part of the community here.

The spores are meant to be stored in cold as far as i know, leaving them in a refrigerator makes them last longer. so, the weather is perfect for shipping.

freezing will cause ice crystals to rupture the cell wall of some psores if they are hydrated [as in a spore syringe] but will be unlikely to kill them all. the great thing about spores is that there are so many of them that you only need a relatively low germination rate in order to maintain good viability. all in all, it shouldn't hurt.

if it is a spore print then they are largely dehydrated and will not be affected by freezing at all.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Dried spores will survive in the vacuum of space I think. They'll probably be fine in the mail even in solution. Or, you could see if the seller will offer any guarantee maybe?
