I just recieved my syringe in the mail and it was frozen solid.Will this have any effect on the viability of the spores???I am going to use myco-bags and dont want to put dead spores in there...

As far as I know the cold would put spores into suspended animation, unlike it's counter part that can kill......

Try the syringe first with one jar and see what happens. Peace, MAIA

My guess is, because it froze while in transit, it probably wasn't frozen long enough to be harmful. I've read of people using them after weeks in the freezer.

The problem with water freezing is that molecules turn solid in the form of cristals, the cristals architecture and the contraction of the liquid can danify the integrity of the spores crushing them. Peace, MAIA

I delibertly froze a syringe once as a test. It still worked fine with no apparent danificationoxyismishness. Spores and mycellium freeze in nature all the time. Perhaps not so much with the cubensis specie but they seem to survive it as well.
