I have three spore syringes but they've been in the garage since spring. I heard one of the guys here talk about an easy way to do it by just putting it in cow manure but I though it had to be really precise and sanitary...

Does anyone have a simple easy way to do it to see if my spores are even still viable? I also have a spore print

the quickest , most precise way of cultivating mushrooms is the PF Tek method

It took Me exactly 8-9 weeks from start to finish.
start = Day We knocked up jars
finish = the days We harvested

There is a sticky on it.

Though this method is cheaper, it is not quicker

Gonna have to agree with mister canndo. I followed his tek, inoculated July 11th picked my first mushroom august 12th pretty damn fast If you ask me

I would suggest using the sticky that you replied in. If you do go the pf tek route. Use a flour blend. Not just brown rice flour. Somethin' with corn and other grains. Try health food stores and Amazon. The blended flour is actually cheaper flour than brown rice flour. And more well rounded. Also get some calcium carbonate. And worm casings.
Ooooooorrrr. Just got to a bodega (corner store). Buy a 2 pound bag of popcorn ($2.50?). And just use the sticky.
