Can Spore grow in Syringe

So i have this syringe in my closet for over 5 years now, and inside was what looked like Mycelium growing and not seeds. Is this possible?
So i inoculated a jar 5 days later i am seeing first growth of what looks like some healthy Mycelium. I read somewhere that you can put jar in the fridge and remove to induce faster growth is this true?

Sounds odd, but good luck. Update thread with pictures later. The spores need nutrients to grow, or so i thought, but maybe they can stress out over long periods of time.

5 years is a long time for a spore syringe. Although I'd imagine it's possible for mycelium to grow in a syringe, it'd be pretty unlikely to grow, and have no FAE.
Well, pics please. Also don't put it in the fridge, it won't cause it to grow any faster. Room temperature is good.

Spores can germinate and grow inside of the syringe, yes. It happens less if you is distilled water to make syringes since there are no nutes to feed on.

5 Years is nothing for a spore syringe. They could probably last a lot longer. I am currently using 5 year old syringes.

I've seen repeated all over this site about syringes not lasting more than 6 months to a year, and prints only lasting a couple of years.
This information needs to be spread around a bit more imo.

Update: Check on my jar a couple days ago seemed to come to a hault, I checked today and it has grown a lot in 2 days.
There is a little yellowing around the top of the jar and in the middle it is small it concerns me but I believe it is only my substrate.
So far she is still looking healthy. Any comments would be appreciated.

I am moving this jar ^ into my garage for a night thinking maybe it will give the jar a little coldness, so when returning it the growth rate will increase.
Does this work it seems like it would in theory. At night it gets cold and mushrooms do grow outside.
