Syringe not giving me anything...

I ordered 2 syringes from a well known vender, one was free. The one I paid for is doing well, all the jars I innoc show growth and the cakes should be 100% colonized soon. The free syringe however is not doing so well. There are obvious spores (black specs that I can see inside) but there is no growth at all in any of the cakes or liquid cultures. In a final attempt I sucked in some Karo water with the last CC from this syringe and mixed. Right now the syringe is sitting with the cakes, and after 2 days there is still no obvious sign of growth. Could the syringe be bad? I see no other anwser. EQs are supposed to be easy to grow I hear but my Texas syringe is doing much better. I'm trying not to blame the vender as they are known for good service, but after using the whole syringe and still no growth there is little else I can think of.

How long is it since first innoc? I would imagine vendors free syringes are older ones so it may take a while.

Actually the first few jars I innoced I waited about 4 or 5 days and then I dumped them because I'm new at this and I thought maybe I had fucked up. But the LC I have now has been there for about 5-6 days now, the syringe for 2 days.

If the vendor is little guy i made a post this morning with my free syringe they gave me of B+ being cont. I am guess the reason why it's free is that they suspected there to be something wrong with it

No..
The Little Guy would never send a known contaminated syringe..
Never... ever... no how...
His products are A+...
Like said above, free ones are older ones that never sold, then they got a new batch of that strains spores and they sell the newly made one...

Syringes even from the best suppliers are sometimes bad. I've gotten contaminated syringes from two different Shroomery sponsors and one that apparently contained no viable spores from another. All were replaced promptly by the vendors without question. One of them added some free syringes extra to compensate me for my time and trouble. If nothing grows in two weeks, assuming all your growing conditions are okay, there's a good chance the syring contained no viable spores.
