Getting APE's from a spore syringe

Hey everyone,
I got an APE Spore syringe from a trusted vendor a couple months ago, and knocked up about a half a dozen brf jars. I waited several weeks which turned into a couple months and have had zero growth. Like absolutely nothing at all.
I used my typical brf jar recipe that's yielded out the ass forever.
I have about 3cc left, and I'm hoping to get these bad bois goin. Am I missing something here? Is there something that's the ideal medium to grow the mycelium?
Thanks!

I’ve grown apes from MSS on brf cakes shredded to coir/verm shoeboxes without issues. I did 2:1:1 ratio and although they are slower because pe varieties are slow, I had 17 out of 20 jars colonize and fruit

Welcome to the club. Some months ago I got a dead PE syringe presumably from the same vendor you're talking about. My guess is that they keep the syringes refrigerated and some parts of that fridge get so cold that they actually kill the spores.
Best thing you can do is tell them some BS like "the spores appear to be dead under the microscope", becuase they won't listen to you if you even hint you were trying to germinate them.
They never sent me a replacement. It was actually a member here that sent me a whole (and alive) PE syringe for free, overseas... that's generosity right there and one of the reasons you gotta love this place.

Yeah I'm not super pumped, it was a little bit of a chunk of change, but was a total of 5 syringes. The GT syringe is good and the tub is currently doing great. The entire reason I got this package was for the APE specifically which is a bummer.
I'll keep my eyes out for another syringe or a print and hope for the best.
