Before falling in love with herbalism (and mushroomism) she worked a dozen years as a biomedical scientist in cancer biology and infectious disease research - first as a research technician at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, then as a doctoral student at the University of Washington Department of Microbiology, and finally as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Berkeley. Definitely not impossible, just a lot for a new grower, and a pretty steep learning curve for some.Anna Marija is an herbalist and scientist in Durango, CO who spent her childhood wandering the woods of suburban Philadelphia. If you're really committed to doing this syringe free, maybe try the flavor injector and popcorn? That would involve spawning to substrate, allowing the sub to colonize cleanly, tighter controls on humidity and air in the grow chamber, and lot more technique and tools than the PF Tek would, though. You can even use 'flavor injector' marinade syringes (basically just a 60cc syringe) found at most kitchen goods stores, though the tip is monstrous and wouldn't have holes in the right places for doing PF jars. You can find syringes at most hardware or farm and feed stores, so no e-commerce involved. A laminar flow hood is about the only way to do so and not open your jar up to massive contamination, though a still-air glove box, impeccable sterile technique, no verm layer, and a stiff dose of luck may be enough.
Even when using grain, you would have to remove the lid and expose it to all competing spores floating around in the air at all times. Doing it PF style almost requires a syringe because of the added verm barrier. I can understand all of that, but without a syringe you need to make sure you have impeccable sterile technique, and as a new grower that will be exponentially more difficult.
