they were supposed to be spores thats what i order but it is summer and hot so i guess the heat made them germinate along the way to the mailbox.

Well I'm going to make a few more cakes today (using pf tek of course) so I'll let you guys know that goes. Oh it's day three of the very first jars I've innoced so I'm countin down the days lol. Oh I forgot to mention I made my own BRF by taking natural LG BR and grinding it up in a spice/coffee grinder do u think that would make a difference in anything, good or bad?

Well it has been five days since I first nocc'd my first 4 jars and.....nothin. i sneeked a peek at for the first time today and I dont see anything at all just verm and brf. So if the myc were already germinating when I got them shouldn't I see the slightest bit of growth? Or is it still too soon? Honestly I've been reading alot of threads saying the vendor I got them from was selling bunk spores, so I think I'm among the many other people who has been ripped off. I've sent them multiple e-mails about how they were when I got them and no reply so I think I need to order from a sponsor this time and start over. I'll give em a few more days but I'm gonna order more to be safe.
P.S. If anyone else has ordered from Spore Store and got jack crap. Lemme know so I know I'm not the only one.

Definitely give them another week, before giving up on them... Bummer deal, regardless

Yea I so wish I found this place before I ordered them. They were 10 bucks a piece so I got a couple. I'd have more faith in them if I got them from a sponsor lol. But I'll let them sit for another week or so and if I don't see anything I'll pitch em. Gettin more from a sponsor though to be safe.

I,ve used really fine verm and thats no problem I think. Much of it depends on the water content and dispersion of water. A balanced substrate is the way to go. Oxygen levels are vital and this is one of my issues. I use the HIGHLY UNORTHODOX*NOT ADVICE> method of using a alcohol soaked rag to place over the lid, open the jars and tap the lid over the opening a few times to let more air in. <*NOT ADVICE* This has worked for me. But air cannot currently be your issue.
You should give details about your spores, you said they were frozen? Make a new thread and you will have answers. Germination usually occurs within 5 days to a week. The spores might have been killed or were non-viable. Its just a possibility.
