Do you think magic mushrooms are just for hippies? Think again! Today, scientists and hobby biologists alike are discovering the fascinating world of fungi through spore prints. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most exciting mushroom spores you can find at Novus Fumus.
What are spore prints?
Spore prints are essentially the "fingerprints" of mushrooms. When a mature mushroom drops its spores, it leaves a unique pattern on a surface; this is what we call a mushroom spore print. These prints are not only beautiful to look at but also a valuable tool for identification and for those who want to start cultivating magic mushrooms themselves.

Using spore prints for cultivation can be a rewarding experience. Here are the basic steps:
- Workspace Preparation: Ensure your workspace is clean and sterile to prevent contamination.
- Tool Sterilization: Sterilize all tools you will use, such as a scalpel and petri dishes.
- Creating a Spore Solution: Carefully scrape some spores from the mushroom spore print into a sterilized syringe with distilled water.
- Inoculation: Use the spore solution to inoculate a sterile substrate, which serves as the nutrient base for the mushrooms.
- Incubation: Allow the substrate to incubate under controlled conditions until the mycelium has fully grown.
- Fruiting: Transfer the fully colonized substrate to a fruiting environment to let the mushrooms grow.
Advantages of spore prints
- Unique Experience: Every spore print offers a new and unique experience in mushroom cultivation.

- Cost-Effective: Individual mushroom spores are often cheaper than ready-to-use grow kits and offer more flexibility.
- Long-term Storage: Spore prints can be stored for a long time and remain viable for years.
Disadvantages of spore prints
- Contamination Risk: Extreme care is required to avoid infecting the substrate.
- Time-Consuming: The entire cultivation process can take several weeks to months.
