Syringes and prints?

I filled a baby food jar 3/4 of the way up with distilled water.Then I pressure cooked it. After it cooled I scraped one whole print into it. I let it sit for 2 days. I then fill my syringes up and knocked up some jars. How many syringes can you make from 1 print? Did I screw up?

1/4" by a 1/4" square from a print will make one spore syringe.

Depending on how big the print is and how dark it is will depend on how many prints you will get.
A decent sized print will usually get about 8 syringes.
U dont have to use alot of spores, what you see on your print is million s and millions of them.
i imagine that a 4-5 inch in diameter print will do at least 8.
Dont make them dark.

You didn't hurt anything but it is a bit wasteful,If you want to make you spores really last get good at making LC

Thanks so much. Yeah I always back up my spores with LC once the spores germinate. I just didnt have any LC cause this is my first time growing Texans.

Why let it sit in the jar for two days? Why not just fill the syringe straight away?

Because you have to let the spores rehydrate for 12 hours minimum. I was just not home for 2 days thats why I waited so long.

Yeah, but you'd be a lot better off letting the spores rehydrate within the confines of the syringe than in a baby food jar.

One spore print has the capacity to make an infinite number of syringes-If done correctly. If you see one small speck of spores fall into your solution, that solution has plenty of spores in it, one drop of that solution will make a syringe-how many drops are in that baby jar? One drop from that syringe will make one baby jar-how many drops are in a baby jar? Do the math. A lot of people here(especially noobs) have the misconception that you have to see the spores in the syringe before it is viable-that is far from the truth. One spore print(believe it or not) will make enuf syringes to supply the world for all eternity! IF DONE PROPERLY!
"How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie pop?"hahaha, just had to say that.
It only takes two spores to grow alot of mushrooms.
When someone does the math please pm me and give me the answer, cool?

Yeah I had that misconception. My syringes look like pure water. I cant see anything floating around. But when I order syringes from a vendor I can see all kinds of spores floating around.

I'm assuming you mean 4-5 inch circumference?

Why? 4-5 inch isn't a very strange cap size for cubes grown on a bulk substrate, especially poo.
