Could spores be germinated in maple syrup water like with honey water?

Or even can shrooms be stored in maple syrup like in honey to last longer? That way I could mix a ton of powered mushies in with it then toss her in the freezer (ms doesnt freeze) and then have it on ice cream... yum yjm

I doubt they would germinate in the maple syrup. However they would probably store in it, and taste real good too.

I doubt anybody here has tried maple syrup. Many different types of syrup/sugars should work. Feel free to experiment...

Honey has been used extensivly because it is cheap readily available. Dextrose is cheap, quick, easy to measure, use, and makes up a clear solution which is easy to eyeball for contams. Honey & Dextrose Teks are well proven.
