lol, they are spores. They are meant to be hardy.

I wouldn't recommend boiling them. But yeah, they'll be fine.
@Blue_dreamer do you continue the line with agar and LC jars or just buy new syringes when you want to grow?

If I see a particularly interesting and fast growing shroom, I will use a syringe to take a sample from the interior and then fill the syringe up with liquid culture, and about 75% of the time if you are super clean about it, it will fill the syringe with mycelium. I also do the same with some half pint mason jars. I make liquid culture from maple syrup. I think its 10 parts distilled water to 1 part syrup, and then pressure cook it in the jar for an hour to sterilize.

I tried to mess around with agar, but it was a mess and I had no luck at all.

In this case, we'll just be going straight spore to grain because its been like 2 years since I've grown shrooms, and most of my samples in liquid culture are questionable at best, so its time to start over.
 
I do have this B+ Liquid Culture still in a syringe that looks healthy.

1ml is enough to inoculate a whole jar of grain. So I may do 2 pints of B+ with that LC and 2 pints of Golden Teacher with the spores.
