new mushroom cultivator needs some help

Hello there fellow cap munchers, i have aquired quite a few spores and the desire to cultivate mushrooms over the past year, and needed some help. first of all, i have a small baggie of about 5 different types of spores from different mushrooms i have recieved over the past 3 months. i usually would just grind a cap or take out the powder from the bottom of my mushroom sack and put it in one collective baggie, which probably was not the most sterile decision to start my cultivation. well, i still have my baggie of various mushroom tissue/sporage and was wondering if the spores are alright to use to begin cultivation; the baggie is defenitely not completely airtight, and has been sitting around for quite some time. i am not sure which strains they are, but each collection was from extremely potent mushrooms. if the spores are alright to use, what method/equipment would you guys recommend i use? any help is greatly appreciated. peace rsst

You need to purchase a sterile spore print. End of story.

Yeah man, that's not the way it works... I've heard of the technique to clone mushrooms from fresh tissue but that's something only experienced growers with the correct equipment achieve, so I guess you either way have to order a prin/syringe or find someone who's willed to send you some for "free".
Anyway, good luck!
