I really love the short, straight to the point, videos you make. While still being descriptive! It’s honestly a huge relief.
Holy Toledo. I can't believe how much I'm learning about mycology this last month and a half.
Awesome! It is so much fun!
I am hooked, too. It is the first time in my life I have ever been called to do something productive.
@@deviantaffinity1626 Awesome! Let me know if I can help in anyway! :-)
@@deviantaffinity1626 Me too!!
what else you learned so far?
Thanks
Thanks!
whats your contamination percentage ruffly
Can I just plant the aluminum foil? Plss help me
Thank you, i do have a question. At this state have to be as sterile as if you were working with agar, It just seems like the prints I'm seeing look like that isn't as necessarily as important as at inoculation.
You should be as sterile as you can for the whole process.
@@BoomerShroomer thank you 🍄🍄
I’ve been cultivating for years & you’re literally the first person that has explained this in a simple & easy way for me to understand😅 thank you
Agreed
This is what tutorials should be like short simple and no beating around the bush just enough info to not get confused
one recommendation, i let my prints dry for atleast an hour, normally longer, becouse they are still slightly wet and if you close that aluminum foil around it no water can evaporate, making your sporeprint go bad faster. if they are dry and stored in a sterile zip lock bag in a fridge they last a lot longer than 5 years, even heard about 10 years.
Awesome! Thank you!
I was going to say the same thing. I made some prints during freshman year of college, put them in an old textbook and forgot about them. Literally, almost 20 years later, I discovered them during a move and found they were still viable.
@@sparkeyjones6261 awesome!
Do you put water on the cap like the video shows or just place it on the foil (or other surfaces) without water?
@@homegr0wn never needed water. I wipe the foil down with iso prop, let it dry, put the caps on and a glass above it, but dont give them too much air space, so their moisture raises the humidity itself that hwlps with dropping spores
Thank you for your videos, these are so helpful! I mixed my spawn bags last night. The hobby just keeps feeling more real with each step.
You are so welcome!
Excellent videos! I followed your substrate video on my first monotub and had great success. I'm glad I finally found a reliable source of information. Please keep spreading your wisdom and positivity!
Thank you!
Hi Ashley! Once you've got your spore prints and we're ready to use them how do we safely remove the spores from the foil to add to syringe to inject the spawn bags? Thanks in advance! Or do I even try to add to a syringe? and if so what kind of fluid are the spores supposed to be in in the syringe?
sterile water. . just swish it around in a sterile glass with a full syringe
Thank you, where can I find more ladies like you? Haha, smart and into mushrooms, anywho thankyou Mush love
Is light needed to release the sores? Cause I used a coffee mug and it didn't worked? Thanks^^
Where should I store ,
In a cool dark place.
Should the cap be discarded after getting the spore print?
That was a nice print. Thanks for the info.
You bet
Hi from the UK, love your content and how you explain it. I am learning a lot from your channel and subbed straight away, thank you for your time and effort Ash.
Thank you for your comment! Been working on some new content and should have it out in next few weeks. Its just been a process. 😊🍄😊
How to get a golden teacher spore print online?
inoculate the world.
What to do if the mushroom cap is too wet? Should I dry it? I tried o make spore prints once but next day I realised they didn't make a print but became black, sticky and gave juice onto the foil :( I kept the caps in a plastic closed container.
How should I store them? In a fridge?
This last twelve months I can’t express my gratitude for everything you have taught me!
A year ago I had a syringe, a bag of grain, and no bloody idea what I was doing, three flushes later I veered away from the psychedelics and started with Oysters, Lions Mane, I love my portobello’s nom nom, but I have around 30 spore prints now ten of them are from both globally and locally sourced spores, some too potent for some of the people I know, but thank you Ashley, you’re an angel and a saint 💚💚💚
Amazing piopinos
Thank you!
What is the safe way of storing them? Glass jar? Do you need to check up on them if there are signs of mould on them after a while or is it not necessary?
Bout to make my first ones. Found some shit in the backyard
Awesome spore can live for a lifetime if stored correctly. (My opinion and xp yo? Mush love
i’m making dwugs wit dis knowledge
As always, nice video. Can you comment of 'proper storage' of spore print - Freezer vs fridge vs tucked away in dark cabinet subject to seasonal variation. And do you have any data on survival rate after many years of storage.....like a seed bank
Thank you for your efforts.
I keep mine in a closet downstairs so it's a bit cooler down in the basement. But I have seen people keep them in their fridge. I think as along as you have them in a dark, cool place they should last for while. I will be keeping this spore print I made for this video and will inoculate it in a year for you! Stand by. :-)
Trying to get started in all of this and your video was super helpful! Thank you for giving such a great instruction!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Where can I buy spore prints or order some ? I’m trying to grow shrooms

Hi, wondering where to store the spores, inside the refrigerator or outside.
I store them out of the fridge. Since they are not growing they don't need to be in the fridge. But you can put them in there if you want.
hi
can i use any kind of eating mushroom spore print for this?
Most of them will make a spore print for you. Some stains wont.
Thnak you sooo much
You can also use a live culture for liquid culture that’s what I’ve been doing.
Thank you , good video. I’ve been told by some that a good spore print can and should last you for life! You only need a very small amount from the spore print to get them rolling later in plates.
Thanks for the tip!
I just want to take spore prints for the purpose of commemorating each grow. I plan on storing them in little bags with viewing window
Awesome! I did this too!
@@BoomerShroomer I was gonna do a Dexter slide collection but bigger slides are fuckin expensive!
Hello, what kind of materials are used for injecting mushroom spores to reproduce?🙏🙏🙏🙏
Print can survive more then 3-4 year i tested and maybe far more (must to test some old one 6 or more years) ,in cold and dark place in fridge.Dont need to put that two drops on cap its a mith...and when you taking print you dont need to cut stem just put the cup in left hand and whith second hand twist first in one side and then in second side stem and you get perfect separation.Good joob 💪💪👍👍👏👏!
Cool thank you! 😊 🤩
Was that a golden teacher
No
So i got a question lets per say i take a mushroom make the print spore and use the spore print will the same shroom grow from the spore i used or is it random sorry just starting out dont wanna fuck it up
not random , same mushroom.
Not sure if you’ll still be reading comments but if you get to this one could you please do a video on temperature and humidity conditions during colonization and fruiting maybe with like a time lapse of the substrate/ mushrooms with the humidity and temperature meters visible I’ve watched a lot of your videos and I love the way you explain things please and thankyou keep up the good work😁
Yes, I can try. I tried to do a time lapse of the colonization in my how to grow mushroom in a monotub video. But what I am learning is if you have the light on 24/7 in the monotub the mushrooms don't grow as well. They need light, but that not that much light. So I am working on getting a camera with night vision so we can see them grow at night. Then once I have a night vision camera I am hoping to see the mushrooms grow at their fullest potential. So might be a few month before I get a video out that has a decent time lapse.
Yes ma’am thank you very much you rock maybe in the time lapse you could include the temperature and humidity gauges on screen or maybe just the average of both at different points during the process
@@Yo.Tristo oh yes! I actually tried to put that in there! I should have. Definitely will the next time.
@@BoomerShroomer that would be really cool
Does the spore print have to come from a shroom you just grew or can you buy shrooms from someone and use that ?
As long as the mushrooms weren't dried out with hot temps (above 120F) you should be able to, but you'll likely be trying to outrun contamination with several transfers, but you can do it
Question,shouldn’t you be wearing gloves to further prevent samples from getting contaminated thus ruining the spore syringe? Also what kind of water should I use to add droplets to the mushroom cap if it’s dry,and also for inside of the syringe,? Should it be distilled? I’m new to mycology but enjoy learning new things. Thanks for sharing
Yes, you should wear gloves. No you don't need the droplet of water. They will drop their spore without that. But i just use tap. But try do it without the water. They will be fine.
@@BoomerShroomer awesome thank you so much I love the channel! I am subbing!
I really appreciate these videos!
Thank you! I’m trying. 😊
Directions unclear..
Got ego caught in death mode..
Awaiting further orders.
-Kzztt
Short, informative, and to the point! I love it, thank you so much, Boomer Shroomer!
To further try and avoid contamination I let the cap sit for 2/4hs and drop the first layer of spores. Then I move the cap trying to be as quick and still as possible to a clean spot on the same foil, and there I let it rest for 24hs to make a full clean spore-print.
Cool. Thanks!
Hey a quick question, can you mix all in one mushroom grow bags the same as you would a grain bag to help speed up cultivation? Thanks 😊
I’ve never tried that before but I’ve seen other do it.
Can someone please explain these spore prints to me and how they equate to my being able to (or not being able to) eat a said mushroom... like how would I keep them sterile coming from the woods? I'm just beginning to get into the wonderful world of mushroom foraging so any tips or any other helpful tid bits are much appreciated 🥰
I'm pretty new too but I believe it's used as another identifying factor when attempting to determine which mushroom it is (plus you can use the spores at a later date if you wanted to try to cultivate them). For example, if you had a mushroom that looked identical to a couple you have found online but one drops yellow spores and another kind drops white spores you could do a spore test to determine which specific mushroom you have. The more points of data you have about a mushroom the better you can more confidently identify it, so if you look online for a mushroom that has gills, a long stem, turns purple when you score it, AND now you know it releases yellow spores since you did a spore test it only helps with narrowing down identification.
Hi Ma'am, I'm South African and this has been explained so simply, I've tried it today, and will see it late tomorrow. Please advise how to go on from here.
Ive actually done this method on store bought Button Mushrooms.
Thanks and God bless you and your family.
Have you done (or are you going to do) a video on making a spore syringe?
I am going to make a video on how to make a spore syringe. I have been doing some testing trying to do it the most sterile way. It will be a few months before I get it out because I am working on a start to finish video right now. I am trying to put everything to make it more seamless and easy to understand. Its just taking a long time to capture the footage.
@@BoomerShroomer please talk as you're doing the work instead of doing voiceovers.
“Be as sterile as possible.” -proceeds to use barehands with a dangly bracelet. (JkJk) 😂 thx for the concise video, very easy to follow!
“if they’re properly stored”
how?
In a dark, dry, cool place.
@@BoomerShroomer thanks
Two questions:
(1) What about the moisture that is in there /on the foil. From after the mushroom has been lifted mine has little water droplets. Also my prints are slightly damp...one of them I could watch it dry up (the print got a little lighter in color as it dried). You just folded it up?...it won't mold in there inside the foled up foil?
(2) Can you dry out those caps with the rest of the harvested mushrooms being dehydrated and consume them also? I am thinking not...mine had a little bit of fuzzy stuff on and under them. Could be mycellium, but if it is mold, someone could get very sick if they are highly sensitive to mold. ...???
I have heard of sport Prints lasting 25 years. Would have liked to see a lot of rubbing alcohol and gloves in this video.
Is the process for wildshrooms the same but with my agar isolation work?
Hi do u know any website I can trust to get magic spores to get me started ? Love Ur video.i live in australia
Thanks for your video.I have a question on this.what condition suit for spore print
Is this 100 percent sterile? Like could I then make a syringe to use?
Holy Toledo have you ever experienced doing this method with magical mushrooms 🍄
Thank you! Ive been looking for a how to print vid!!!! ❤❤❤
If i pick them when the veil breaks will this affect my second flush badly or how should i spore print if i want a second flush?
Idk what I did wrong but tryed multiple times after bails broke n I just couldn't get them to give anything at all smh
Damnit haha the stem collected most of them. I thought it was bruised then realized nope those are spores.
Need to know when to start fruiting my bag . My last bag went to waste it made like a layer of mycelium and it died out it started to turn brown
Can i use normal fresh mushroom's spores to make magic mushrooms? Thanks in advance
Thank you so much for keeping it simple
My pleasure 😊
Thanks!
Cool
🍄😊🍄
Great video and nice content! I would like to ask, how should you store and preserve your spore prints? I mean, do I have to put the aluminum foil in the fridge or something like that? And how long they last?
I store them in my closet in my office. In a dark, cool place. They don't need to be in your fridge and they will store like this for years!
@@BoomerShroomer Thank you very much for your answer!
When you left it for 24 hours was that in the fridge or out overnight?
Should I try waiting a day after bails are broken instead. Thanks in advanced
Short sweet and to the point.👍
Great vid. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
How to properly store them?
who else doing this with those special mushrooms?
Yet anothe great quick simple video without the overbard sterility
This lady must be just like me and live in a clean tity house
I se nearly no sterile techniques and very very rarely get a contamination issue
I must use the absolute cheapest and easiest method in history
Thank you!
Spote prints can last up to 15 years BTW
Can you store in the refrigerator? I do not have air conditioning and it gets very hot during the summer.
POV: you find one psilocybin mushroom
What? I don't understand. Thanks.
Very well put guide. Thank you
What is the difference between using a spore print vs a live culture on agar?
the world needs more beautiful women like you!
Thank you! ❤️
huh? she looks like a 12 year old boy with long hair. If that's what you're into.
Why do mushrooms have to be dried before consumed?
You looked like a trip veteran. Tell me your stories LOL
I’m sorry I’m so late to this channel, but can you do spore prints for all kinds of mushrooms? Like, even wild ones? I always wanted to do some and take photos of them, and I assume you can plant the spores, correct? What else is spore-ing good for? (I’m 21 and very new to mycology but I live in the southeast, so we have lots of cool mushy buddies and I always write notes on trees where some mushrooms grow for people not to knock them down because they are equally important 😢)
I did this step by step and thete were no spores. I left it a bit longer the the mushroom head went mushy 😅
Fuckin love the channel name 😂
Thank you! ❤️
WAIT!!!! What do we do with it now lol, but seriously!
how to properly store the print?
I keep mine in a ziplock bag, then put them in a drawer thats cooler and away from light. Also dry is best. They should store for years like that.
Beautifully done, brief and to the point.
Thank you!
Is this technique useful for all mushroom spicies?
Mi caps were too wet it seemed and I didnt add water. Plucked em right after the veil broke
3 years late to the part, but do you sterilize your foil first?
Why aluminium? What about other mediums?
Stopppp I didn’t realize it was this simple omg
Ashley r u using a flow hood or sab or is that not necessary when taking prints? Thx for the video
I'm pretty sure spore prints last indefinitely❤️ I have worked with some very old ones
Excellent! Good to know!
I would like to communicate with you
Do i teally need a fresh mushroom to make a spore print
Who named you Boomer ? You are brilliant !
How much time they can be stored if i put them in a syringe? And how they should be stored in a frige or just they can lay around
I don't put my in the fridge. I keep them in a tote at room temperature.
