Clear spore syringe * 1
    #26643643 - 05/02/20 12:50 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Should a spore syringe be
Totally clear?
I have one that I ordered and
It has no visible spores
Floating in the syringe. The
Solution is clear. Is this how
It should be?
Or have I been scammed?

Put a drop on agar and see what grows.  Usually you can see spores in a syringe because there are trillions of them.  Maybe you have a syringe with "only" millions of spores.

Haven’t got no agar.
So could it still be ok?
Or do you need to see the
Spores?

It could be fine. You won't know until you try it. Usually a light spore syringe is better than a dark one but I've always been able to see visible spores when holding it up to light. Have you tried that?

U should be able to see some tiny black dots. Do you a magnifying glass by chance? Microscope?

It could the syringe is super dilute and only has a little bit of spores in there.

A lot of the time seller use far more spores than needed. I've seen a few companies marketing "extra dark" syringes for double the usual price, but its all unnecessary hype. It looks like there's a full teaspoon of spores in some of the syringes I've seen advertised on Instagram :rolleyes: Its a waste of spores! You could always dilute it I suppose :grin:
Without visible clumps of spores or a microscope the only way to really know is to try growing them. The spores may just be well dispersed/singular, rather than clumped together.

The Syringes I buy have "just enough" spores. Barely visible but still visible when you look at it really close under bright light.

I know some vendors put the bare minimum concentration. That no good homie.

Spores are microscopic, you can only see them by eye if they are clumps which is way more than you need anyway. Try it you’ll probably be fine.

Looks like the best way is to put it directly under a lamp and hold it very still. U can clearly see small spores/veil floating in the syringe, at least my homemade one.

A lamp isn’t going to make microscopic spores visible lol. The only way to know to to use it or check it out under microscope.

Trust me, it helps see them if the concentration is high enough/clumping.

Yeah I get that if they are in enough clumps to be visible but Spores don’t need to be visible in a syringe for it to still be viable.

Good points. But brings up the issue: Is the syringe OP has sporeless or is there just too little spores inside the water to see with the naked eye?

Oh yeah.

Step 1: Buy a microscope or large magnifying glass

Step 2: Put a drop agar.

Step 3: Run the PF Tek.

I’ve only bought four syringes but they all had a ball of spores almost the size of a marble, even PE.

lol spent so much time shaking those things.

I think I know who you bought the syringes from... cough*  :devil: and if I'm right, I got the same syringes from him. They are completely clear from the visible eye, but they work. Just make sure you shake em up very good before inoculating. The issues I've had was long germination and colonization times and very weak looking mycelium. It took over 25 days for me to see my first mycelium growth and another 30+ days for full colonization.
