God, I'm realizing my failure of specification. I am more interested in experiencing the fruit first hand.

Question: I Have two sryinges in the mail. Would you guys suggest starting with B+ or Golden Teachers for a first grow?

I suggest you edit the vendor name out of your post That vendor also sux next time use a sponsor unless you like mold.
As for the variety you should flip a coin, they are both cubes

He is not anymore, and for good reason. You shouldn't mention any vendors by name in this forum tho. Just call them vendors or sponsors and leave it at that. Spores are sold for microscopy use to mycologists, not for you to break the law.

Shit! I could have sworn that I found them through the sponsor list! Shucks. Do you think that I should even inoculate my substrate and risk mold growth and wasting the substrate? Or would you suggest just going through a more reliable source? And lesson learned. No mention of vendors from here on out. MY B.

I would make an agar plate and test them out on it. But when I used his I had 3 do nothing, 2 grew aspergillus, and one worked (barely) which was enough for me to salvage a print.
He used to be a sponsor then his business went downhill and he got booted as a spomsor about a year ago. He made a few threats and had a nice meltdown, was kinda entertaining.
You should prep a small grain jar and test the syringe on it. If you get clean growth feel free to nock up more and G2G the test jar to more grains.

Fantastic advice. Thank you kindly. I also have a friend locally that can provide prints. I might just trek the hour out and grab em. Probably definitely worth the trip. Luckily I didn't skimp on any materials, so I have agar and all necessary supplies to create agar petri's, living cultures, and grain spawns. Set up for success if I can keep every thing clean (with the grace of the universe).

The only time I've ever bought syringes was for PE. Agar + spores = more fun for all.
If PE fruits look like penises it's from some sort of alien creature.

I didn't see the vendors name but I think I know who pasty was talking about and I started my first few grows with GT and B+ spores from him. I had good results so you may get lucky. If your spores do tern out to be contaminated checkout my journal there is a thread about salvaging contaminated syringes.

Damn, I love agar. "A useful substance" would most def prove to be an understatement.

I'm planning on colonizing 5 BRF jars, pre-sterilized until the pressure cooker arrives, then I'm going to be inoculating 5 quart sized wild bird seed after acquiring stable genetics from agar transfers. I already have everything set up and clean. I do however need to work on making more fruiting chamber. I'm considering a 4 tier greenhouse set up, but I'm going to wait for a few harvests first.

If your fairly new to cultivation I wouldn't worry about that do the pf tek take the bigger fruit, cut tissue from the inside of the lower portion of the stem and place it in the grain jar, tht tissue will contain sub genetics

Horrble advice. Could it work? Sure but I can also win the lottery. You want to stabilize genetics learn agar. After a year with success with agar you might have developed your procedure enough to get away with something like that. Except at that point you will better understand the pitfalls and you won't bother.
