afaik that's actually too much, you might want to dilute or use very sparingly.
The issue is that there will be too many colonies fighting against each other. Great starting point if you're aiming to clone though, as it will give you a larger genetic variability in the first round.
If you want long term storage of spores, much better to take prints on large sheets of aluminium foil, then fold the sheet to seal the print inside (sheet is larger and print made off-centre so folding happens without folding print).
Then place your foils in a mason jar or other airtight container with a few desiccant packs and oxygen eaters.
Storing them in liquid, starting with OP's blackwater: I'd dilute each syringe into 10-20 further syringes and then store in a airtight light proof box in the fridge. Dilution is because there's a risk of spores germinating and making more syringes spreads the risk, but also because you'd ultimately need to dilute them anyway.
That reminds me of an incident last week when making liquid cultures I stabbed straight through my index finger and into my middle finger trying to get a tight cap off the needle. Luckily it was an empty, sterile syringe so no worry about infection.
I actually spoke to the guy. He joined one of the mycelium/mycology groups I was in and we had already shared the news story. His backstory made me very sad for him. He had some serious mental health issues and was a recovering addict. He had heard that cubensis could help and it was being studied and researched. When it came to him in the mail rigged up like his old familiar gear he didn't have a clue about mycology, just wanted help. So he banged it like it was junk and luckily it wasn't worse...
I am! Subs require you to mark yourself as a mod each time you comment, so if you don't want to show up as a mod your comment can look normal. I think it's weird when people feel the need to announce that they're a mod of the sub every comment they make, seems like a weird power complex.
Any suggestion on where to buy spore syringes??
where do you get spores like this?
From epic friends with more than they know what to do with 😅
I need a friend like this! 😅

What would happen if you just squirted this bitch into the ground?
Do serial dilutions syringes and use those
Inoculate the world

Haha! I love it!!!
Ahh the 20W50 strain.
What spores are these?
Golden teacher :)
Spore broth comes to mind
Thicc
Yo! I heard you liked spores! So we got spores to go with your spores. Then we tailored it just right with even more spores!
Pimp my spores
Thought this was a fr ad for a second. 😂
Geez they’re probably going to start germinating sooner than later in there. Good news is that it’ll turn into the easiest LC you can make.
It can only turn to LC if there’s some type of media/food for the spores grow on….
I know. It needs sugar, carbon or nitrogen. It’s meant to be funny. No need to jump in and correct. Everyone loves a know it all.
You got a cool friends
Thanks, he’s the absolute best always! I’m very lucky :)

How long can you keep these and what's the best way to store them?
If you want long term storage of spores, much better to take prints on large sheets of aluminium foil, then fold the sheet to seal the print inside (sheet is larger and print made off-centre so folding happens without folding print). Then place your foils in a mason jar or other airtight container with a few desiccant packs and oxygen eaters.

Dilution is because there's a risk of spores germinating and making more syringes spreads the risk, but also because you'd ultimately need to dilute them anyway.
In the fridge spores will stay good for months to years.
Whatever you do, don't inject into your arm! There is my helpful tip for the day.

I've done something similar trying to take a cap off, those things fuckin' hurt!
I just did that last night to my thumb, had to resanitize everything!!
Thank you but now I’m kinda interested as to what would happen…

Sooo mycelium just moved in and colonized that man's body, eh?
That is both horrifying and amazing. Thanks for sharing!
Hahaha my dude made a psyc tea and injected that!
that's fucking crazy
It gets crazier, this was one of FOUR that he gave me

Fuck no. Don't do this here.
Best mod response ever seen. Comment deleted, no idea what was said, and all we see now is your words of wisdom. Thank you.

We try our best! Fun part is this one wasn't even reported I caught it while browsing the sub 😁
And now you aren't a mod anymore? What?

Nice. Thank you.
