Title: Possible problem with spore syringes I've ordered
Post by: Mandingo on December 09, 2009, 04:59:50 PM
Hello-

     I have inoculated multiple rye seed jars 16 days ago with spore syringes purchased from the Sporestore.  I  follow the PF Tek Method.  I'm trying to determine if I may have bought some bad spores.  I also inoculated a jar of rye seed from Ralphstersspores.  Those jars developed Mycelium growth within 8 days.  Has anyone else had a negative experience with sporestore?  I was hoping to benefit from your insight and experience on this.  These are my incubation conditions:

       I maintain a sterile environment and follow PF Tek

       Incubate in darkness at a controlled 82 degrees  F

How exactly is it PF Tek? You are inoculating whole grains! PF Tek is Brown Rice Flower cakes!

Big,
  The man has spoken the truth,....   :angry:  GL, with your results there.
  In the future, use Sporeworks.com or Ralphsters.
They stand behind their products and deliver quickly.
  After you get those fruits, start making your own sporeprints and LC as to eliminate that point of purchase, other than for new strains.

Yeah I plan on reproducing my own spore syringes because at roughly 20$ a syringe I won't be able to afford that since I will be sharing my fruits with my friends and class mates who want to try it XD

I got mine from microsporetech.com - cheap and fast delivery however a limited selection.  Which to me is no big deal as I don't grow in abundance like most everyone here.

Yah, Dont get your spores from the sporestore. I hear complaints about them all the time. probally the most out of all the others. I hear that they even use a fake e-mail address so as to not be able to contact them.

I have a BRF cake that is 90% colonized with a spore print I took of a malabar fruit. If it makes it and produces, it will be my first ever full cycle grow. The strain was chosen in honor of a certain poster.

Coyoteyogi,
  Cool running my friend,.....    :rolleyes:   It's great to see you completing the "full" cycle, with the Malabars!     :ph34r:
  Though, I'm starting to feel I need to be ordering a "scooter chair" or "hov-a-round",...... 
Like I'm being retired or something!    -_-    lol    But, I supposed being honored while I'm still alive is a  Good thing though,....  Life is Great! 
  Thx,...  I appreciate your efforts and wish you the best of luck with the grow.  You'll enjoy them.  For sure,....

lol, I did the same thing coyoteyogi, got 2 syringes from ralphsters. Malabar and Dancing Tiger <sounded cool, and never heard of anyone tryin to grow them>. So, I think its safe to say that Malabar <the poster, not the mushy> has quite a bit of influence.

Retire Malabar? Blasphemy.  ^_^
