Friend didn't shake up spore syringe before injecting

A friend of mine wanted to take a shot at growing so I told him where to buy the spores, supplies, etc. and I told him I'd walk him through it.
Well shit, I forgot to tell him to shake up the syringe before innoculating 
I called him right after I remembered leaving that tip out but it was already too late as he said he already injected.
How big of a deal is this?
Fuck

One a scale of one to ten? Three and a half. It's something he should have done, but there are still thousands of spores in the solution he injected.

Shouldn't be too bad.. But of course it's much better to shake them a lot. The spores are throughout the syringe even if you can't see them, the reason for shaking is so you don't blow your whole load on the first injection. If anything this time he'll have good results and maybe next time not so much. Just hope he wasn't dumb to see a black clump in the syringe and force it through with the first shot.
Did you get to see the syringe before he used it? Was the water dark or clear?

I didn't see it personally. I just called him and asked him though and he said that it was clear with the usual thick groups of spores here and there. He said he thought about shaking it up but didn't because my dumbass said that I'd tell him how to do everything step by step exactly. So he figured that if I didn't say anything that it must have meant not to do it.
I take the blame on this one...although I wish he would have picked up the phone and called me.

Even if you injected clear liquid from a setteled syringe theres still thousands and thousands of spores in the clear fluid.. a syringe with visible clumps at all contains millions and jist two spores needed to prpduce mycelium.. should be fine, just remember in the future for best results..

Lol. Well like I said not too big deal. Hopefully there's more black clumps left, if not, he has a good chance it should still work next time, but at least this time should work.
It's a bit of time away before harvest, but maybe start teaching him about spore prints so he won't have to buy the next syringe.

You are fucked, OP. furthermore, the Brotherhood of the Sacred Shroom ("BOSS") should reject your application for the alcolyte position on the basis of this admitted fuckup,alone. Consider yourself warned, from here on out it has to be perfect or you could wind up with God knows what.
