how much spore print for 1 syringe?
    #8052517 - 02/21/08 04:11 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

If one had an entire spore print, how much of that would be required for one syringe? (Assuming he is making eight double sized cakes) And also how careful must you be when dividing/cutting the print?

you need very little print depending on the size and density of the print. with a 1 inch print i rarely even come close to using 1/4 of the print itself. use more if you like and you will likely germinate quicker. it's up to you.

i try and get as much out of each print as possible. so one print would give me about four syringes.

First time making one?

Once I have lots of prints I use much more than you have 2. Most of my new prints are about 3in wide, so I use that for two 20cc syringes, and knock up 7 qt WBS jars with that.

They colonize real quick, like 5-7 days for full col. If you only have one then you might want to split a 3/4 in print in two 10CC syringes. Its up to you because there are millions ( I may be exagurating here) of spores in that 3/4 in print.

Experiment, but don't put just enough, more won't hurt.

How careful must one be when splitting the print? Could one literally take the print out of the ziploc and cut it with scissors?

Also will bottled water work for the syringe water?

you really need to do some reading. making syringes isnt exactly for beginners. you must be very sterile in your process.

When you only have a few prints you can get 8 decent syringes depending on the size and how dark the print is. Once you start taking your own prints and have a ton of em it's easier to just stick one in each syringe. (This is just a me thing)

so while the spores are being "rehydrated" in the syringe for 12 hours, where should one store the syringe, or does it matter?

I put mine in a ziplock bag in my cabinet with my caned veggies and dry stuff. Only really cause its right next to where I will knock up the jars. Remember the spores will be most ripe 1 day from creation. Then they are really ready to start up your jars.

They will last but why wait, time it so you have sterile jars ready for getting knocked up!!

how long do the jars stay sterile for after they have been cooled and before inoculation?

Darker syringes will result in more contamination problems. There is always going to be a certain percentage of contaminant spores on any print. Therefore, if you use more spores, you get more contaminants.
In addition, when you use a massive spore inoculation, you force the mycelium to spend a lot of time and energy combining all the genetics into a common network.
Many growers think that more spores results in faster colonization. What it results in is the substrate turning 'white' faster, but there is no evidence at all the project will actually fruit sooner. I'm a firm believer in using the minimum amount of spores necessary to achieve a crop. Clear(to the naked eye) syringes perform better than dark syringes.
Nobody can see individual spores with their eyeballs. What you see is clusters of a few thousand that are stuck together. The spores in the center of these clusters are locked out of the moisture in the jars, so they rarely even get a chance to germinate
RR






This was not my post. I do highly agree as too many sub strains in a cake or jar will increase the chances of contaminated spores.

I make a syringe and use it right away. 1 print = 2-3 syringes.

Unless you print your prints in a very clean environment and your grow area is relatively dust free (not saying yours isn't) darker isn't necessarily better, as all prints have some level of contamination. If you make your prints on foil or glass slides infront of a flowhood or better yet with a screen between the mushroom and printing surface go nuts with how dark you make your syringes.

Otherwise you may be introducing excessive amounts of contamination, RR said metabolites would also be plentiful so this issue is sort of balanced out - depending on how clean your printing technique is.

As a rule of thumb liquid in the syringe should be lightly greyish violet if put against a white paper. A 1/2"x1/2" print is quite enough for a 10cc. At least thats my FOAF thinks optimal. :wink:

WHAT a fucking clutch! Nice syringes mate :smile: I aspire to that. They're all really dark aswell (I know vendors say it doesn't make a difference, but spores are dark, therefor dark syringes must have more spores...)

If you have a semi nice dark print...

using a 1/4" by 1/4" square area from a print will make (1) syringe.

If the print isn't semi dark use a little more.



I suggest scraping the spores off the spore print using a sterile tool of some sort.

I like to use a sterile Exacto knife.

I put my syringes in a ziplock bag or a container to keep contams that float in the air, from falling on them.

If storing a syringe for a long period of time...
I put them in a ziplock bag, then into a container...
then place them in my frig.
I have syringes that are still viable, that are almost 6 years old.


Your jars will be good for a few weeks to a month, or so.
The main problem that you will run into is that the substrate in the jar will dry out over time.
