I inoculated 12 cakes about 3 - 4 days ago 4 with P. cubensis mexican 8 with P. cubensis burma
I did them all at the same time and replaced the needle with a sterile medical needle (on both syringes) and flame sterilized after each inoculation... but the 4 with P. cubensis mexican are now infected with green mould...
My inoculation environment was sterilized with a disinfectant followed by surgical spirit, and straight after inoculation I moved the cakes to a sterile fishtank .. but only the 4 cakes with P. cubensis mexican were infected..
I don't think this is my fault as the other 8 cakes inoculated with a different strain were alright.

I have to admit that does seem alittle odd but it is wierd sometimes how things happen with this type of study. Try making an small LC with the Mexican and see what happens there as well. I do ont know that vender so I can not say what is what with them, not even sure if I have seen thier banner up in here before. I use Ralphster and never ever had a problem with his stuff. You will notice he has one hell of a fallowing in here and for a very good reason. I do not work with them or have even met them(would love to some day), I am just a student of study like your self. Wish you the best of luck. and one other thing as to not just put that vender down, but crap does happen sometimes and everyone can make mistakes, maybe you just got a contaminated syringe, try the LC and if that to shows mold then cantact them and see if they will make it right. I would use Ralph next time myself but each thier own. If they won`t make it right then deffently look for another vender.

They are listed on shroomery.org/vendors.php and I Have purchased spores off them before, and the service has been excellent. I am in europe so its easier to get spores from an european vendor.
I will try a LC tonight. Hopefully its not a duff syringe

Marvin seems like he is good guy...
just send him an email that you got a contaminated syringe and I'm sure he will replace that for you.

I am sure they will replace it. I ordered often from those guys and have to say that the quality is awesome most of the time.
Maybe next time try to put some drops on Agar and if mold or bacteria grows the syringe is contaminated. I am always "testing" the syringes before using it. Theres a little chance to contaminate the place when you open it just a few milimeters.

I've ordered from them quite a few times with 100% success .. so I don't normally question them. This is the first time anything like this has happened though.

Eveyone can have a bad day, with that being said we all have to remember that sponsers are people too, and shit does happen. If we were all perfect it would be a boring ass place don`t ya think(lol). Glad you got your stuff replaced and that you can continue your study of these wonderful fungi. GL
