Stick around Toast we’ll get it going very soon. I just a gram of Blue Meanies and have 2 more waiting.

Hay toast My first shot got contaminated so I will be trying again and change two variables that I think cause the problem. #1 using 91% alcohol , this time I will get some 70% alcohol and
#2 I didn't eject a little of the spore syringe before injecting the Grain bags.

I tried to use an old syringe I had from almost 3 years ago(good deal on 6 syringes) and it didn't take(no spores to old). Long story short, it didn't mold, but the bird seed smelled like fermenting alcohol when i dumped them. STRONG!
I have 2 or 3 more syringes, but I'm sure there all BAD at this point(maybe agar would work, but they didn't take twice with two different syringes with WBS). I think I paid 60 bucks for 6 really good deal, plus a freebie strain so 7. Sucks they went to waste, but I'm more than happy with what I ended up with the BHT and SG30.- Thread starter

Keep pushing man

I've always wanted a rematch with malt agar, ever since I blew it a long time ago with the old school homestead print kit. The amazon and Cambodian syringes didn't take, I have Z, GT, and Taz left, but only chance of anything is agar(big maybe) since WBS is a bust with old syringes.

@JohnnieJC3 did you store them some place refrigerated? Also did you shake them up really well before using? The spores like to stick to the plastic on the interior of the syringe sometimes. If you have a subwoofer or a large speaker, put the syringe on there with some music with good bass. The vibration from the speaker will help agitate the spores in the solution and suspend them better.

I shook both of the syringes up vigorously, but they were kept in a room temperature drawer so it's my fault completely.

Here's a few pictures of the syringes that are slightly over 3 years old now.
The Taz has some movement, but even if there bad(OLD), I want to order the PE and do it right with a backup print, start on AGAR initially, instead of just having fun squirting MS into WBS and ending up with WAY to many shrooms. It's pretty easy to hit a half elbow and have shrooms coming out of your ears for years EVEN with Multispore. I've had good success with clean syringes straight to pressure cooked WBS. You guys are getting me back excited about growing them, it's SO cool to experience pins to FRUITS SO FAST. Now I'm off to see deals on syringes and AGAR.

It's easy to get an oz (dry) in a monotub, 3-4oz full canopies is what you should be shooting for.
Do you plan on making your own agar? I bought my supplies off of the Zon, Telephone brand Agar-Agar and light malt extract for brewing.
Psilocybe subaeruginosa Not sure what Liberty ones are or if they’re the same. We have blue meanies too which are extremely strong and some dudes can’t take the ride and haven’t come back from the buzz.

Hey Phantom, should I even try the old syringes, and I'll probably just buy the supplies and make my own agar. I'm not against premade agar, but I want to learn more doing it myself since I have very little malt agar experience. I wouldn't consider a screw up over 20 years ago EXPERIENCE really!

Psilocybe Semilanceata
I would try those old syringes on some agar and see if anything starts. I'm making more agar plates tomorrow, it's not that hard to do and I don't use a PC either, just boil in water in a covered pot and steam for 35-40 mins.

You can see the spores in those syringes , I would give them a try if you have extra grain for spawning. I need to learn how to make and or use Agar and Petri DishesHere's a few pictures of the syringes that are slightly over 3 years old now.

I have some WBS for sure, maybe I'll try a few jars while I'm getting together the supplies for AGAR. The other two syringes (Amazon and Cambodian which I would of liked to fruit out) looked pretty good to, but nothing and WBS colonizes pretty fast. In my limited experience, you see growth in 2-3 days and by a week to 10(up to 2 weeks) there DONE. I went about two weeks or more and nothing and smelled rank of fermented bird seed.

View media item 1794130
An check that out I got an xtra syringe of The Golden Teacher Spores.
View media item 1794129
Now 2 get everything setup an a nice cleaned spot to work an we can get started. I like the jars i got with the lil self healing ports they are cool. But i found some videos on how to make em myself n how to sterlize ur own grains. So i got some hars to try it myself an wont cost me 17$ a dam jar lol. Plus then ill be able 2 sterlize a shit ton of grains i already got n get a bunch of shrooms going lol. Atleast thts my plan so we will see how it all works out its cool i got an xtra syringe as well so i can really practice my first few rounds to really get the hang of things.
