Waited way to long?
    #7742661 - 12/10/07 08:46 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

I have posted this once before about a week into incubation, I was told to wait a couple more days to a week... its going on 4 weeks and still nothing not even contams (I'll take them at this point, just want something to grow). What should I do? Is it possible to get bad spores?(got them at spores101)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first time growing. I am following a couple different teks, but mainly using the PF-Tek for Simple Minds. Using 12- 1/2 pint jars with polyfil filter in the middle of lids and 2 small holes for inoculation, pressure cooking for 1 hour on 15 psi & cooling overnight, inoculated the 12 jars with 1 syringe. I'm at the point of incubation at 80 degrees and no growth yet.

Always a chance of spores not germinating, not present, or a substrate that does not have the necessary ingredients/moisture levels for growth.

If you feel confident in your substrate preparation and inoculation techniques, I would send Spores 101 a PM describing the problem. Do not mention cultivation if you're referring to a psilocybe species though, or they may ignore you. Just state that you have been viewing your spores under a microscope and have found no activity.

That is definitely the way to handle the situation..thank you Wronguy although we would never "ignore" anyone but I doubt you would like our draft response to questions like, "hey I tried to grow magic mushrooms with the spores I bought from you...why doesn't it work"

Lol, "Hey i tried to grow magic mushrooms, they don't work" If I where a happy worker at spores101 i would only be able to laugh, but spores101 has never done me wrong!
