How long do Spore Prints last?
    #5291670 - 02/12/06 02:32 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Hiya,

I have about 5 spore prints that must be pushing 2 years old. They were all printed on foil, then in individual zip-baggies, and have all be kept at room temp or below (never chilled though) and kept away from moisture and in the dark

Will these still work? I don't want to waste time making up cakes and syringes just for them to fail - but am thinking they may still work - can anyone point me onto info relating to how long prints last?

Won't be keeping the next batch so long - thats for sure!

Also whilst I am here - what is the currently legal status of spore prints and syringes in the UK at the mo?

FYI I am a newbie here but was on magicmushroomforums.co.uk (now closed) for ages - hi to anyone from there that has migrated here!

Cheers, MM

Yeah, they'll be fine. Spore prints practically last forever. However I'm not sure how sterile they'll be. If you can, germinate spores to agar and isolate the healthy myc to make a Liquid Culture [LC]. That way you can be sure they're not contaminated.

Wicked - thanks for that - not tried agar / LC yet so might give that a go. I'll look up a tech now.

Cheers again, MM

The only way to find out is to try. I have prints four months old that gone bad and had others five years old that still worked.
