yes. when i started growin i would smoke cigs in my room. Alot got contaminated, could of been my syringe/methods. But recently I havnt been smokin in my room. Made my own syringe, did regular sterility procedures and nothing has contamed so far. Whats toxic to the body is probably toxic to mycelium.

I dunno... why would lead and/or arsenic and/or cyanide harm a living being?
There's probably nothing to worry about

No worries.
The most important step to incubation is to leave your incubating substrate alone and let it do it's thing.

it can carry the Tobacco mosaic virus. But there is no real proof that it affects mycelium. I don't smoke in my grow rooms though.

Shouldn't do dick. In any case, colonize your jars in plastic tubs.

speaking of spore syringes, is there a thread of how to make them, or is it as easy as blending up a dry cap in sterile water and sucking the fluid into a sterile syringe?

Pretty much, PC some water for 90 mins at 15 psi. Wait a day for it to cool. With a clean razor (also PCed) scratch some of the print off in the clean water and suck it up with a clean syringe. After that you're done.
Also don't forget to do this in a glove box or a flow hood.

no. certain contamination. search for Shea's syringe tek, works like a charm.
