Any Lucky with this spore vender?

Has anyone here ever ordered from spores101? I ordered four strains, when I got them I looked and I could hardly see a speck of spores in the syringe. I know spores are microscopic, but looking at other pictures of good syringes you can see them clearly. Anyways I inoculated 12 1/2 pint jars of golden teacher using PF Tek two weeks ago. Not one sign of growth on any of them. They have been at a constant 78 degrees. Is this normal or does it sound like a bad syringe?

This probably belongs in the vender forum. Any of the sponsors here are reliable and good people. Lots of people have ordered from them before. Your syringe is certainly viable. If they sent out ones that weren't they wouldn't be in business anymore.

Don't buy syringes, go with the prints. You get more spores for your money and they're much more fresh in print form. Spores break down real fast in water, I've ordered some crappy syringes from different vedors before. If you get one good syringe out of four then it's cool, those spores are priceless in my opinion

1000 spores to the tip of a pinhead so you don't need to have to see a dark syringe to have millions if not billions of spores.

I bought a Koh Samui syringe from them that was quite clear. I'm pleased to say after 5 days I've got a heathy showing of mycelium even at below ideal temps (75-80). I also have an LC going from just whatever was left clinging to the sides after innoculating the jars. I suppose I'd call that "lucky".

I purchased three syringes from spores101 that were clear as well, but needless to say I am very pleased with their product. As to why you haven't seen any growth yet, I can not be of any help. Sorry.

No man dont worry. Big companies usually use a tek to make them clear! My first syringe was like that and I asked a guy on this forum who sounded to be a pro and he said they use ultra sound to make them as small as possible.
The syringe I had was clear like water but when I tried it on agar, it had growth.
However as other friends said you always better go with the print! So if anything happenes you know its not the spores. (cause first time I had probs and thought it was because the syringe was clear. it took about a month to see any growth of myc in the jars. but the reason was because the substrate was really packed in the jars. i was really confused! i didnt know if it was the syringe or any other factors which made the growth slow! so had to learn the agar tek to test my last 2 cc of that clear syringe on agar to see if the syringe is fine! which was ok...)
