Best way to get spores from APE?

I can't seem to UTFSE this one, so here we are....
Two jars of ape pinned and are now dunked. Fruits pending. 2 others are way slow, and the other 6 should pin any day now. 
So I can get all my ducks in a row before I go off half-cocked, or mix my metaphors mid-stream before the the paint is dry...
What's the word on getting spores from these buggers? Swabs? Sterile water shot into the gills and captured?

either of the 2, or take a tissue sample and put on agar or in a LC.

Okeydokes.... Personal perpetuation is not the real concern, but rather dispersal. Mailing spores=legal. Mailing mycelium=not.
Pics in the mornin', gotta stay on cycle... Gotta admit, my heart-rate shot up when I saw the first fat pin.

Yeah, I got my current set of PE from spores that were mailed to me on a swab. Worked great!

Here are some jail-bait pin-porn pics...
APE cake #2

APE cake #1 - my first APE chubby:

These are the first 2 cakes to pin. 3 more dunking now and 4 more should show pins any day. Jar # 10 is really slow. Still 70% or so. I suppose I'l pull it soon to avoid bacterial issues and let it go by itself, or stack it on another cake.
Did you do swab->agar->grain, Gorny?
