Question on spore syringe shelf life
    #27283636 - 04/27/21 09:01 AM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Hey everyone!

I haven't grown any mushies since 2017. I had a couple lucky runs in the house i was renting, but had huge contaminate issues....i think it was the house itself. Mold showing through the ceiling--so just think about what was in the air... So i tossed all my jars and stored my extra spore syringe (Chitwan) wrapped in a black bag and stored in a plastic shoebox where i store my cannabis seeds..
ANY WHO! I bought my 1st house last summer and im finally ready to try again! Main reason i got the house was for the amazing basement! (I have sooo many ideas for it) last time I did the brf cakes and dunked and set them in a box. This time im doing agar>Whole oats in mono tubs. Just waiting for petri dishes and media bottles i got from amazon and im ready to go!!
Should be fun!!

TLDR: I have a spore syringe that I've stored in a dry & dark place for about 3-4 years...Will it still be a viable syringe at this point? I'm still gonna give it a go, just wondering if I should go ahead and get a new spore syringe if this one is too old.

Thanks for reading my post!! All comments & advice are always welcome!

You should be fine. I keep mine in a mini fridge and have used a syringe that is as old as 2 years and it was fine. Nothing wrong with at least giving it a go! Nothing to lose, everything to gain.
