I can barely understand your post. It doesn't sound like your cakes are contaminated if your successfully growing mushrooms. Perhaps your contamination issues have to do with your terranium? I followed the Magic Mushroom tek down to every word, and am having a 100% success rate after 12 jars. I read through the tek about 5 times to make sure I had all my basis covered and I understood everything. I suggest you should look over your procedures to make sure your doing everything right. What exactly did you alter in your terranium? What is your terranium setup like? What type of cake are you using? This information would be helpful. BTY, since you mention that you don't have anymore spores, you probably want to make a spore print right now with your one mushroom.

If you have shrooms and pins growing, don't change anything. Just monitor your temperature and humidity often.
if there are mistakes made, learn from them and your future crops will benefit.

what does being from japan have to do with helping you? do mushrooms grow diffrently in japan?
i would try to help you, but i cant understand your post either.. and im from america.....
what exactly is your question? follow the various TEKS here at the shroomery and u will do fine... they are 100% monkey proof.....
u seem to be growing mushrooms, so if u dont feel like switching teks, keep on doing what u are doin...

I usually let them sit overnight, collect my spores, and use the same cap for more prints another night.

If you are making a syringe then drying the spores is not necessary.

If you can see the print you have enough spores for a syringe.

The prints should always be dark, but some spores solutions (when mixed with water) are dark. Others solutions are clear. Spores are microscopic so they cannot be seen. Of course, everyone knows this already as psilocybe spores are for microscopy use only.

My friend had it down by his third attempt, but by then he was working with agar and grain transfers, which made the syringes rather obsolete.
Good luck to ya.

Not at all. Just allow the alcohol time to evaporate.
If you ever run out of spores, someone will always be here to trade a print for something else you have.

In a clean working area, scrape the spores into a small glass. Mix well with water and suck it into your syringe.
The key here is clean.
