For those who wondered what / how the crime labs deal with spores or cakes, here's a case study.
    #26444167 - 01/21/20 01:42 AM (4 years, 8 days ago)

MAIL-ORDER PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOM SPORES IN GREAT FALLS, MONTANA The DEA

Western Laboratory recently received a submission of three standard design, plastic, 12 milliliter syringes containing a clear liquid with very small black specks suspended in the solution, suspected to be aqueous suspensions of psilocybin mushroom spores.  The exhibits were seized by the Postal Inspector in Great Falls, Montana. Each syringe had a piece of colored tape wrapped around it; one red, one white, and one blue. Each tape had a different alphanumeric code written on it, the meaning of which was not intuitively obvious. 

For prosecution purposes (attempt to manufacture psilocybin and/or psilocin, controlled substances), it was necessary to show both that the spores were viable (would grow mushrooms), and that the mushrooms grown from the spores contained psilocybin and/or psilocin. Visual examination of a drop of the liquid at 750x magnification revealed thousands of brownish colored, semi-transparent, oval shaped spores. Each solution was used to inoculate four different growth media:  Potato, dextrose, yeast agar (PDY), dog food agar (DFA), malt extract agar (MEA), and brown rice powder and vermiculite.  The basic procedures followed those provided in:  Gross ST.  Detecting psychoactive drugs in the developmental stages of mushrooms. Journal of Forensic Sciences  2000;45(3):527. [Further details not provided in accordance with Bulletin policy.]  Mycelium growth was obtained Photo 5 with two of the syringes; analysis of samples of the mycelium by GC/MS and GC/IRD confirmed psilocin (see:  Casale JF.  An aqueous-organic extraction method for the isolation and identification of psilocin from hallucinogenic mushrooms.  Journal of Forensic Sciences  1985;30(1):247).  Transfer of the mycelium to a grow chamber resulted in mushroom growth (see Photo 5), and analysis of the dried mushrooms confirmed psilocin.  This was the first submission of this type to the Western Laboratory.

I should note this was the California, SF Laboratory that did this case and Spores are illegal in California so I can only assume that's the reason they inoculated them. Apparently they'll actually pursue legal action and put in a few months work at that, at least in some cases.

The person who the case was revolving around probably thought it all blew over for weeks or months.

The Crime Lab workers are some pretty smart, I wouldn't underestimate their abilities one bit ~ especially with someone as straight forward as cultivating mushrooms.

But yeah, that's very true. That persons future is in the hands of some employee who may or may no be successful.

Yeah, totally moronic logic. The way our society is can be mind boggling idiotic at times no doubt. What a waste of resources going after someone with a couple spore syringes. .  :judyfacepalm:

100% agreed. I think they should leave Ethnobotanicals / mushrooms alone completely. Even in Denver where they "Decriminalized" mushrooms a guy got busted for growing them by the feds (he was being dumb and doing interviews and vice news talking about how much he grows / sells / too smart to get caught by taking electronic payments ~ venmo with people commenting magic mushrooms in the sending notes -_-)

Definitely sad to see people have serious consequences from such a beneficial hobby / plants.

ya that guys an idiot i know i dont sell anything to anyone. i give shit away to friends but even they dont know im growin they just think i buy in bulk lol i have actually thrown away more mushrooms than anything. i grow for a hobby and the beauty of the species and photographing and for the effect of coarse. but i never deal and im sure i could make a lot of $$ but its not worth it to me. i have a great job and dont need to risk my freedom and everything i have by taking stupid risks just for a few bucks. u cant grow in jail lol

im not knocking anyone who does tho god bless ya 😃 just be careful is all and be prepared to take ur medicine when it comes cuz it usually will
