spores in syringes are like a glob
#22050370 - 08/05/15 09:27 PM (8 years, 5 months ago) |

so recently i got 3 syringes yucatan gold, gt, and tc from a new supplier and each syringe has a big glob of spores. They are hard to agitate to break the spores up so more than one jar gets equal shares of spores. Is this common with suppliers now days. Couple years back i used a different supplier and the spores were more loose and free floating. i just dont want to spend all my little soldiers in one jar.

If you have a subwoofer, set the syringe on that. Or tie it to an electric toothbrush for a while. Or a vibrator (please clean it first). Or anything that vibrates. Shit, stick it on your cell phone and call it over & over, lol.

i ve read that some supplier use a additive. the subwoofer idea sounds like an awesome way. i shook the hell out of one and was able to break it up but not as much as i wanted. nocked up 10 jars of brf so i hope all is well. i followed a tek for grains but i got way to impatient and fucked it all up. Patience isnt my best quality but i think i just rushed it because i want use to doing grains. stickin to cakes

It's not common but it happens. Just keep shaking. I swing the syringe in my hand like a drummer, if that makes any sense.
If you get tired, take a break and keep it up until the clumps break up. And they will, eventually.

No. This isn't the forum to look for spores. Check the sponsors forum.

Really, if I had a syringe that thick I'd sterilize a 1/4 pint jar with a couple injection ports about 3/4 full of water and a couple drops of sex lube. Take an extra syringe and needle, pop out the plunger and stuff it with Polyfil. This is called an airport syringe. Wrap in foil and sterilize.
Then I'd take that in my SAB, hit one port with the airport syringe and inject the whole spore syringe into the jar. Shake like a madman and then draw up a syringe worth of spores.
Of course you're gonna need to be very dilligent in every step of sterile work here. It's kind of a lot of poking into your sterile jar. Learn some patience. You won't get far in this hobby without it.

If it isn't being broken up by just shaking, perhaps try whats been suggested and attach it to something with finer, faster movements constantly happening to break up the spores.
I think that it shouldn't be a source of alarm, since the spores are very small and the majority might not be visible to you. So there may be a visible clump when the syringe is actually saturated.
Since you've already inoculated 10 BRF jars, there's nothing to do but hope for the best. Don't sweat it, kick back, and give your shrooms a bunch of love. I'm sure they'll turn out well.
My own cakes are fruiting just now. Good luck, sending good vibes your way

Well I knocked them up on the 1st and so far only one visible spot of germination. I have been keeping them at room temp 70-78. From my experience in the past it takes cakes a lil longer to germinate . I won't really get worried til 2weeks past with no further germination. I used the 2:1:1 ratio verm:brf:distilled water.

It's probably a made-up strain.

Not necessarily, I have 2 strains in which give different experiences and body buzz. I believe there are differences. My treasure coast is completely different next to my gt so I guess will see as to the Yucatan gold , I have some cakes colonizing now

I thought the black shit in globs was charcoal added to the syringes to appear better to n00bs?

The cube strains indeed all have the same effect from my experience. They also fruit in the same conditions. Some of them look a bit different from selection, but this does not effect potency. Smaller mushrooms, however, seem stronger! I've read somewhere, that past the pinning stage, they don't actually replicate cells, but just fill with metabolic waste and water. I've had spores clump up in a syringe after over a year of keeping them in the fridge, but a good shake always suffices to break it up. I'm fairly sure it's not charcoal, unless you got them from a sketchy vendor.

Pretty sure stare is just trolling :P.
And what everyone else said. Grow out over 15 strains and eat every single one multiple times. You'll see what effects the trip more is your mind set and setting before the trip.

I wasn't trolling. I thought a lot of vendors put charcoal or another darkening agent in there to show "spores" to new growers. I asked about this when I did PF Tek a year ago and was told that. Also researched it and RR confirmed.

Lack of info because they are scamming cunts which nobody has any interest in. Its most certainly a relabelled strain, trying to con people into thinking its special. Literally a confidence trick, with made up reviews.
They have another called " Entheogen Explosion " reduced to a mere $62.99 reduced from $89.99 bargain they have several other bullshit (re)names on sale.
There are proper vendors listed on this site, sponsors who not only support this site but are the people who develop new strains/varieties & species, which go on to be copied by others. Or relabelled and cashed in on by scumbags.
The true originators and developers are often the cheapest too, imagine paying for fake copies of cds or clothes which cost MORE than the originals! or at best giving money to people selling perfect copies of cds/mp3s/whatever at the same price as your favourite band.
Please do not support these scumbags, it only encourages more to start up, and dissuades the legitimate ones from continuing.

I don't know, I ordered from the company, ordered a syringe of the Yucatan gold, paid like 40 or 50 bucks. Grain colonized fast , cased in peat and it all bombed.. Took some spores to agar and tried to isolate a single strand of good mycelium and it just looked very fuzzy and not like I'm use to so I chucked them. So I emailed the company and they sent me 2 syringes, no charge for shipping , completely free. Gt syringe and treasure coast. Both in which has produced excellent results. I love the gt, and I even if they did get one over on me , I still got 2 strains that are distinctively different both by looks and buzz\trip. I'm happy with my results but yes don't order the expensive stuff. I highly recommend Golden Teacher, highly contam resistant, fast colonizing, pretty uniform flushes. Very medicating trip.

I thought it has special pores that can attract and catch contaminants or something.
