Possible Fake Spores From Spores101?

Recently ordered from them. Got my order, and they gave me two syringes. Which was cool, even though I ordered one and both of them were not what I ordered. On closer inspection, one syringe did not look like spores at all. Some of the speck were square. I was going to put it under the scope, but I shined a light through it, and it looked like rust or bits of burnt something. It had a dark reddish color. The other syringe is the same but with less particles in it. Anyone else ever get this before?

spores 101 sucks but that isnt the case here. Use the syringe and then post your questions. i am sure it will be fine.
-------------------- Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

I recently received an order from them also and it was the exact same thing! Two syringes (only ordered one), one looked like it was full of spores and the other looked very, very clear.. could only see two or three tiny spores. 4 days after inoculation I can see zero growth from either syringe..

Give it another day or two bullrider. My jars take about 5 days to see growth from a syringe

Spores 101 sucks. They boned me, and many others out of our money. Good Riddance.

I agree I was just reading a thread about how the shroomery removed them as a sponsor from this site. that must say something about their business ethics.
I had previously received good product from spores101 on 3-4 occasions before being screwed twice with a bunk product

haha you said...
anyway, we are all very lucky to have spore vendors in the USA. you cant be too mad at them for messing up once. most will even send you a replacement. not saying you shouldnt be irritated though, cuz i know i would be.

I got two syringes from them as well... and one was non viable.. at least I'm pretty sure it wasn't. My sterile technique is sufficient.... but my Hawaiian syringe didnt grow at all. I asked if I could possibly get a replacement and they said since I got the other syringe for free I should just call it even. So next time.. remember to order from ralphsters

Post this stuff in the sponsor's forum bro.
I never had a problem with thier products, but i can't speak for others. Let others know of your unsatisfactory experience but do it in the right place. I am sure a mod will be along soon to move your thread. BTW good luck.

This thread has been closed.
Reason: We would normally move this to the Sponsors forum, but since this company is no longer a vendor I have to lock it. You may restart this topic if you wish, but without any reference to a specific company.
Thank you for your understanding.
