Bought mine on amazon on a 50% off sale and it worked great! Brand is Hoosier Hill Farm gourmet agar agar powder. Got 4oz. for like 6.99. For the same container it's back up to 14.99 so got a deal!:super:

Be patient, right?  LOL.  I was just hoping to find it locally and make my own plates... TODAY. 

I had bought premade plates before from a vendor.  But wanna experiment!

The "vegan" store is what I was trying to say in my first post.  My "vegan" store has the NOW brand of agar-agar.  It's powdered and used to make vegan gelatin. 



You do know that you also need a nutrient source for your agar such as patatoe flakes and dextrose or light malt extract in order for your agar to work, right?

Thats why I like to buy MEA mixed already..it saves time in hunting down ingredients, a lil more expensive but whatever. RR also agrees with this.

It's a matter of personal preference more than it is doing something for the sake of someone else doing it.  It's also because RR lives in the middle of nowhere and is growing MAD amounts of mushrooms.  Most of us don't even come close to using the amount of agar he does in a month.  Also, I have a brewers shop and "vegan" store both within 3 miles of my house.  Personally, I'd order pre-made agar to if I lived somewhere where it was inconvenient to buy my own ingredients locally or if I was growing so much mushrooms I really didn't have the time to leave my lab.

online, 500g for $30.



is this from a sponsor link? eBay doesn't have that good a deal




I bought it in the UK, there are many online stores that sell "kalys" agar in 500g tubs for £20-25.
