 Temps a spore can withstand...

For reasons of not looking like too much of an idiot, I will not explain how my nice new spore print had to withstand temp of 50deg Centigrade/ 122 deg Farhenheit for a period of 5-7 minutes.
Do any mycoligists out there think the spore are still viable??
Give it to me straight, I can take it...

106F is the limit. maybe the spores themselves didn't reach that point. i'd give them a try

106?F is the established maximum temperature cubensis mycelium can withstand.
Spores are much more hardier than that.

Actually, this is a Q that I can answer. I posted a similar Q a while back because my friend had spores that he unknowingly kept in his unairconditioned attic (finished, like a a bedroom) all summer which reached temps of well north of a hundred, for weeks on end. Nobody knew the answer to the question, but my friend went ahead and innoculated with them and everything went fine. No noticeable loss of vigor, etc. So I am sure the spores you are concerned for here are just fine.
