I believe it is only possible to remove spores from a fresh cap. Have a look at this though: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/629944

Sure they can. But if you're going to invest any time or money into a grow, might be best if you start with a sterile spore print.

yes. but you *really* need to know your stuff, and even then its a long shot.
you could try to collect some on a wet, sterile q-tip, then swipe agar plates. from there you'd have to go through several rounds of isolation and transfers to finally get a clean sample, because you're almost definitely going to have a cournacopia of contams along with it. this is all assuming they're still viable, which they might be, but very well might not be.

thanks what i did yeasterday was made 3 spore syringes and put a lot of gill powder in them. and injected 5 cc in to each cake. was hoping to get at least one mushroom to get a spore print from to keep the 2 year old mushie strain going again.

well i have a bunch of cakes going with z+ going right now and they are going strong but i had some cakes 2 years ago . when i moved i had to get rid of them but i had a bag of mushies left. had them in a bag in a shoe box for 2 years . they were really good. so after i used my syringe i thought i would try to bring them back to life.
