1 month and no jar growth...questions?

Title says it. 6 jars of Puerto Rican and 6 of B+ from a very reputable vendor. 1 month and nothing is in jars. No mycelium. No contams. Just wbs. Figured maybe one syringe could be bad, but not both. I'm at a loss, not sure what to do any ideas?

While it is unlikely both syringes were bad, it is still a possiblity. You might want to inform the vendor of the situation. It might not be new to him and he might offer to replace the spores--at a cost (these guys are not Walmart) but not at full price.

Ask for a refund or more spores and try again would be my advice. Sorry man! After a month of nothing I don't think there's anything you can do that would be a step in the right direction.

I'll try agar for a week. If there's nothing, then I'll contact the vendor. This sucks. First grow, too

my last jars took OVER 3 weeks.
for some reason..they have been taking a very long time. but after they start up, they colonize quick.
I would wait another 10 days before you toss em

It's very possible that your air exchange isn't being done properly. How big is the hole or collective holes you put on, and how many are there? I made the mistake of not thinking this was super important. After 8 months, saw no growth (wasn't in a rush for these, as they were BRF and I had bigger yields on the way), and I stabbed a 1/4th inch hole into the top only to watch the mycelium colonize the jar within a week.

Maybe about a quarter inch hole. 3/8. Around there. Stuffed with polyfill. Not sure how I could redrill holes without contaming the jars

I use those size holes and tightly stuffed Polyfil...With great success. What WBS tek did you use?

I would definitely try those spores out on an agar plate. If nothing grows within a week, you know it's because of a faulty syringe.

did you shoot the spores along the side of the glass? if you just squirted them in the middle of a grain jar try checking the bottom. might be growth there.

Sounds like science to me 
Hey OP, since its your first, what did you do? Soak for 24h? Heat for 10m? PC at 15psi for 90m?
We need more detail to tell you where you messed up
