dont inoculate compost with spores, you wait until the grain bags are colonized and mix with the compost. might be a good idea to re-pasteurize it since it'll hhave to wait more than 2 weeks from being made and until your grains are done.
also just build a sab and save yourself a lot of lysol 
if you're dealing with the whores101 you never know what you're growing!

Yeah it's looking like I blew some much-needed money on trusting this place 
The rye has 2 dots of grey fuzz on it, 90% sure it's a contam
The WBS is less certain. 4 patches of white-ish fuzz that MIGHT be mycelium (hard to see through the plastic) so i'm hopefull.
Guess i'll have to save up and order from ralphster or sporeworks, shoulda listened to you guys from the start

It's a shame too. Pre-sterilized Rye/WBS done in a glove box in a sterile closet by a person who has done 12 or more grows before without a 100% loss, should be pretty foolproof.
Trying to decide if it's even worth contacting them and asking for a replacement, if its as devoid of spores as the first, and for the subs to contam from self-healing injectors and flame+alcohol sterile syringes is suspicious too.
Now it's looking like, even if I buy spores from ralph or sporeworks, and get new sub to sterilize, I will have to wait until after christmas, since I am going away for christmas to visit my sister, and don't want to leave anything sitting here. 2 months lost

stop abusing spores meant for microscopy for culting dude. if you must do it please dont talk about it.
dont inject spores to a bulk sub (compost). 4-5 days is nothing, what'd you expect? full colonization? germination after 4-5 days is good.

Well This technique worked many times before, and I never had any problem with 101 back in the day. Im not looking for freebies, just to add my voice to the pile if someone is trying to decide where to buy from. Shipping was fast, service was good, spores worked before, but this time was a shit show
And no, I dont expect much after 6-7 days, but there is now obvious contam which I will photo later. Glove box in clean room, sterile syringes through self healing ports in sterile spawn bags, the only way there could be so many colonies of contam in less than a week is either the sub wasnt sterilized, or there was contam inside the syringes themselves.
