What Are Syringes And Prints + More.
    #5602251 - 05/07/06 07:23 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I've never done shrooms. I want to order some spores and try growing them. What are the strongest spores? But really what I want to know is what are syringes and what are prints. thank you.

as for strongest, the answer is there is no answer.  they're all about the same.  potency depends on how well you grow them, what you grow them on, and the luck of the draw to an extent... so just pick something that looks good to you.

a print is a bunch of spores dropped from a cap onto a piece of paper... a syringe are those spores then placed into water in a syringe, for convenient inoculation.  you get more bang for the buck with a print, and they keep longer, but you'll want to look at syringes for your first time through since the extra step of transferring your print into syringes is just one more thing you can screw up until you know what you're doing.  head over to the faq and the grow guides in the cultivation section before you do anything though... those answers as well as many more are already available to you there :smile:

check out the links just above what you wrote... (start with the Glossary if will help you figure out all the lingo)

prints are spore prints... you take the cap of the mushrooms and place it on something it then "prints" spores on top of that hence a print.

a syringe is a tool to inject liquids into the vain of a person usualy... it's used to inoculate the spores into diffrent substrates.

welcome to the shroomery :tongue:
do your self a favour and start reading the faqs and all that... it will save you most of the question and make us much more willing to help :smirk:

Syringes contain spores in sterile water. Prints are caps placed on top of some medium and then the cap drops its spores onto the medium. Leaves a mark that often looks just like the gills on a mushroom.
SYringes are easier to work with for a beginner.

By strongest spores do you mean strongest strain of mushroom or strongest spores?
If you are talking strongest spores, anything that is a fast growing contamination resistant spore/mycelium is a strong spore.
Any "thai" cubensis is perfect for someone who is new to growing. The mushrooms are very potent, and the spores/mycelium is both fast growing and contamination resistant. I mean VERY fast growing.

Syringes contains spores in water.




A print is 'made' from a mushroom cap which contains spores

one isn't better than the other, they both have their purposes. you can make many many syringes from one print... but that's assuming you have the empty syringes and know-how to do so. about 95% of the time you start your grow process from a syringe though (unless using certain advanced techniques like agar inoculation)... so just starting out its best to start with a syringe. you can make your own prints later once something grows, and be self sufficient!

Or even mycelium water works great.
