I ordered a B+ syringe that was clear very few visible clumps and no it was not bought from a reliable vender i was trying to save money and it was cheap XD, i inoculated 2 1pound rye spawn bags each got 3ccs or so 7 days ago and still no signs of mycelium, I know i did everything correct its just i dont think the syringe was good and now when i look at it the spores settle at the bottom vs float freely is that normal, also i ordered from a reliable spore vendor before and the spores in the syringe looked totally different it was a purplish cloud of spores unlike this time its just black clumps and very few to boot
^bigger than i wanted it to b^ XD

If its only been a week, give it a few more days. Just because you dont see the spores doesnt mean theyre not there. In my experience, it takes around 10.

Spawn bags are known to take longer to show signs of growth than normal quart jars. I would start to worry after another week or so, and like the walrus said, the spores dont necessarily have to be visible. A single spore is invisible to the naked eye, when you see clumps those are billions of spores bound together.

A clump of visible spores is nowhere near billions. Definitely enough to get the job done though

If ever curious of bad syringes or bad rye bags just give the rye bag filter a good smell! It should either smell of fresh grain or fresh mushrooms! After time if no mycelium growth and u see condensation on the bag then something is definetily happening in the bag. If its bad it will smell sour! I know you didn't ask if the rye was bad but that is a great way to tell of a shitty syringe or something else causing no growth! That's also not a lot of time to give before seeing growth from a MS inoc! IMO!
