Expand mycelium? A lot for a little.

If I were you I would also make some grain jars. My favorite way to save genetics is to make prints and its worth it to have some of those around aswell as the agar.
More plates wouldn't hurt if you have the space. I like to do three to make my chances of a good transfer higher.

Well not necessarily the way I'd do it as I only bother to preserve good genetics. I'd start out with agar first. Inoculate at least 3-5 plates to begin with since some may never take or contaminate before you have a chance to transfer. Do at least 1 transfer away before moving clean growth to lc, grain or slant if that's your intention. If you want to hurry things along for fruits while you're making transfers you could also whip up some brf cakes at the same time.

I wouldn't do one agar plate or slant or liquid culture
I would start about 10 agar plates from 10 drops of the syringe and then refrige syringe.
Then select 1 absolute best of the 10 germination plates. From that one plate I would make at least 5 transfers to new plates, T2.
Then after those 5 plates grow a little, make a liquid culture from the best section of each plate, these will be MS but still good strains as you have visually selected good growth this far.
Use the 5 liquid cultures to inoc grain and fruit to find ideal specimens. Select the 5 best ideal specimens and make tissue clones on 5 agar plates.
After those 5 tissue clone plates grow halfway out, make slants of each and as many transfers as you want from there, can be many dozen.

Just another way

The only way to use a syringe in a dumber way than squirting it into 250 or 500ml water is to squirt it in your own eye.
What a ridiculous way to attempt expand a syringe. Putting all your eggs in a really stupid basket.

I'm really nice I swear!
This guy goes around posting nonsense all over the board day in and day out
The question was how to expand mycelium on the cheap, not how to expand shit ass spore syringes into even shittier ultra diluted spore solution.

To inject the syringe into a jar of pre-sterilized water would be no different then risking a lc or petri dish. If the print is clean to start with then it will remain clean once diluted. if it was dirty then you'll end up with a dirty diluted jar of spore solution.
Make sense kid?
Go back to bed, get up on the right side. I dont get paid to read people "bitch" about something that's either a scope outside their knowledge or opinion.
Did you know If you use up a spore syringe you can suck up pre-sterilized water and still use it for another round of innoc's due to the amount of spores that are still inside the syringe? Probably not cause you dont know the half of what I do sandman.
Go goof off

Who gives a shit what you get paid for you fucking bread sandwhich
What you say is just dumb
I dont really need to try and flex on you because you flex on yourself. With the stupid shit that comes from your mouth.

Theres still time to repent sandman, cause I know I'm 100% accurate about the info I gave. I start all my grain spawn masters from spores that were diluted in a jar of sterile water.
Works great for me and it would anyone else with common sense.

First of all no one was asking about stretching out spore solution.
Second of all, I'm not surprised an absolute knob like you would go with a stupid ass way to grow like that.
Seriously everyone look through this guys idiotic post history.

So I will go ahead and leave you to have your melt down across the board.
Maybe I will respond to it at my leisure and maybe not. Hopefully you get banned. This place would be better off without some deranged halfwit sticking his knobby little fingers in every thread with off-topic dipshittery.

Aa master like him makes his own syringes and prints right? Wagging his big dick everywhere he must
Making his own syringes in what? 10cc syringes and then taking an extra step to dilute said syringes are you fucking kidding me?
That's what you are saying yo do?
What a pro gamer move.

I did mushrooms once. It was at college and it was a phenomenal experience. I called my sister at like midnight and told her I found the meaning of life. "To make other peoples life on earth as happy as possible".
Right or wrong in my statement, aren't mushrooms suppose to make you kind-hearted toward each other?
If you disagree with someone you can say so without personal attacks. Everybody is on their own path.
