I put plastic bags on my unmodified jars to make it harder for contams to drift in.
I was thinking of getting 2L PET plastic bottles, cutting the bottoms off and putting them on top of jars, and then shrinking them with a heat gun or in steam to make them shrink down to be a close fit. Another way is to use the thick foil containers rice & stuff comes in from takeaways.

Highly doubt it's even possible but maybe health food shops for the actual agar powder.
Then there's wilkos which sell cheap malt extract powder or any supermarket which sells potato flakes (for nutrients in the agar).
You'd have to use nopour dishes though, you can get the containers easily in The Range/Home Bargains/Wilkos/Poundland/Poundstretcher etc. Just make sure the container says 5 on the bottom or it'll melt in the pc.
Hardest thing to find out of them all would be the agar powder but like I said maybe health food shops or east asian markets/shops.

mrmazdarx9 - I think it was you that posted a link to these petris http://www.agarscientific.com/polypropylene-petri-dishes.html
Are these reusable? I've just been steam sterilising my (glass) petris rather than pressure cooking them, and they turn out all right. I don't have a microwave but would these petris be ok for steam sterilising? pour or no-pour is fine - done both now though I'm still a noob.
thanks!

What do you lot think about using a space heater or whatever to heat the air around the jars? My house is fucking freezing and shit takes a stupidly long time to colonise (I'm talking up to a month for a non-bacterial rye master jar A2G...)
