Did I Mess Up?
    #21982393 - 07/22/15 10:37 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Hey folks. I got my first spore syringe from a repudiate seller around 5 days ago. Out of all the research I've done I wasn't sure what would be inside the syringe. It looked like a clump of ash suspended in water. I thought "oh that must be the spore print". I hear all over SHAKE WELL. I did but they weren't breaking up as much as I would of hoped. I don't have a microscope so I couldn't check. I hold it up to the light and see a sort of slightly oil like slurry in the liquid. I thought they were the spores not necessarily the black bits. I decided to inject them with that reasoning. I look in my jar yesterday and see that there is a black speck on the side of my jar starting to colonize. I don't see that in any of the others yet. Did I not dissolve the black bits enough in the solution? Are those the actual spores? They were still a little clumpy. Did I mess up?

Take the vendor name out. Those spores are for microscopy only bud.

The syringe had millions/billions more of spores that you could not visibly see. Yes what you saw were "real" spores and yes your jars will be ok if your prepared then properly and used proper inoculation technique.

Those were the spores alright.

I heard the clumps are not spores but clumps of carbon, one reason for it is that it inhibits bacteria.  I have no idea if that is true, I'd like to hear more about it.

It is not true. Where did you hear that? I hope it wasn't here.

Oh! Sorry about that Cap.

That's what I thought. Thanks for clearing that up. I was stressing about it a little. But hey! Looks like I did it right! First jar down 5 more to go! Its been 5 days, like I said, so I'm sure it will not be much longer before I start to see signs of colonization.

I heard it on the shroomery from someone I trust.

Also from mycotopia:
charcoal can possibly aid spore germination?

From spores 101:
Sadly some vendors have even gone to the extent to fake the dark look of there product by adding dye or charcoal to the mixture. This would make there spore syringes appear to be very thick and full of mushroom spores when it reality they are getting the same amount or less than a regular spore syringe.

Again I dunno what the clumps are, I'm just saying I've heard different things.

I wouldn't listen to anything spores101 says. They have been outdated to be a fairly consistent scam here.

Dude the thread you linked to has three responses from people that have no idea what they are saying.
The link just mentions scammers, which does not apply to this situation. His syringe does not have that in it. Nor do any of the other vendors here do that. Probably no one does and the people complaining thought they got bad syringes because they don't know how to prepare their jars/inoculate properly.

There has been talk of some vendors (not shroomery sponsors) putting carbon in syringes to hide the fact that they were selling LC instead of an MS syringe. I don't really buy into that, however, I assure you that is not the case here.
