I would have to say no, but weirder things have happened. Try it on a small amount of substrate to see what happens.

Thanks Mag. Had two in the back that froze some. I'll try them on a couple jars. Should be interesting.

Please let us know how you get on. It is a good simple and cheap experiment. Most would say it will be killed due to cell rupture. Many said spores cant be frozen and Anno proved they were still viable. I have heard azure myc survives freezing.
If frozen cubensis LC's survive it would be brilliant, I don't like to store stuff in my fridge but the freezer is easier to hide stuff in from visitors.

Magash- Great ass!

I would bet if only partially frozen, most of it should still be viable and it would still work. If the whole thing froze solid, might be a whole lot less viable, who knows though..I havnt seen to much on frozen LCs.

I would've recomended thawing and keeping warm for a couple days, freezing while wet seems to kill significant amounts, but not all of the spores. frozen syringes don't colinate substrate as fast etc. If this happens just let it warm and rehab for a little bit.
