Bad Batch Anyone?

Had anyone experienced a bad batch of spore syringes? I tried innoculating 4 jars and 4 bags with a GT strain from the sporebank, and they don't seem to work. Should I try another strain?

If you have spores left over make a liquid culture, its really easy and you'll know if the spores are good (which they probably are)

I waited over a month with the rye bags, and over two weeks with the jars. My other three jars with other strains are showing good progress, but those seem to be dead.

If you purchased the jars and bags, there might have been a problem with them. If you prepared your own substrate you might wanna retrace your steps and try again.
There's always the possibility of a bad syringe as well, try ordering from one of our sponsors this time. Our sponsors are top notch and if anything goes wrong they will fix your problem.
Good luck next time man, you definitely need to start a new project even if you decide to let the other sit for longer.

I have no idea how to make a liquid culture. I still have another syringe of those, and I'm open to experimenting and suggestions. I've never grown anything in my life, but I like my new hobby.

I got a fucking bunk spore syringe from a reputable vendor here (who has provided me with clean viable specimen in the past) I really wanted those Brazilians too.

So I decided to not waste time anymore, and injected the mycobags with 1cc of Huautla. This should work, since I saw clumps of spores inside the syringe.

Hey bro, I wouldn't mess with sporebank. I have had very bad experiences with them. They sent me a contamed jar, and I have bought syringes from them that didn't do shit. If you want some good thick syringes I strongly recommend www.thehawkseye.com Plus he ships fast and throws in extra stuff.

Thanks for the advice. I'll make sure from now on I use only sponsor sites. When I ordered my spores I wasn't part of Shroomery, so I made a bad choice. They also ripped me off.
