Making use of spores

Just had an idea, idk if anyone has tried it. Would it work out well if i put a a rubber injection point (not sure what else to call it) into the lid of a gallon of water, steam the jug and then inject say 2 syringes of spore solution into it and mix it up? would there be enough spores to draw solution from the jug whenever i need spores? Getting old having to pay 10$ per syringe and have to wait a week+ to get them

you could make use of the spores that eject off your mushroom caps!

Seconded. Buy one syringe and then use the spores from the mushrooms you grow.

Also I'm not sure you would achieve the goal you're setting out for. Sure, you could mix it all up but I don't think you would end up with uniform dispersion of spores. You may want to look at liquid cultures or agar tek
-------------------- I'm done trying to be "right." I want the exchange of ideas to be the currency of my economy. If you have something I can use, great. I'll try it out. If you think my methods are shit, great. Don't use it. We all want yields.

When I first started growing I limited myself.
I told myself I didn't have the equipment I needed to take clean prints.
I told myself I couldn't do grain to grain transfers because the risk of contamination was too high.
I told myself I couldn't do agar because it was risky in a still air box.
I gave myself all these reasons why I couldn't grow a fuckton of mushrooms.
I was wrong on every account. This is a 'can' do hobby. Stop saying you can't do it and start realizing that you can. Man up, put some tin foil down, as soon as a ready cap opens clip it off and put it on the foil. Put a clean coffee mug over it or a half pint jar if you want it to be clear.
wait 24 hours.
Take the cup off and immediately fold the print in half and then fold on the sides to seal the edges. Done. Clean print.
I don't even wash my hands when I print anymore and I get clean prints.
