get to know your safety practices.

my work with plastics, is well known.
and, so is the proper handling of plastic plates.

ill pencil ya in next to frank for,
" save the 3 cent dish, contam safety be damned"





My safety and sterility practices are just fine Anne but thanks for your concern.

Your also well known for spouting off and trying to make others feel stupid or make yourself look superior, while the entire time your just either completely wrong or have nothing at the time to back up your claims...  (I even agree with the general principal of some things such as blue light, but you make it really hard to stand with you on such things the way you present yourself)

Either way you were the one going off on a wild tangent about...  omg guis itz PET PET PET...  but you were wrong.  Sorry if it hurt your feelings, but next time don't attack others if you cannot be bothered to get to know the subject your attacking with

And thanks for putting me next to Frank.  I really like a lot of the work he's done around here. :thumbup:

I'm sorry OP, but this is just a really silly idea.
Trash your contaminated plastic dishes.
As others said, contaminants could be hazardous to your health,
can effect your working/living area.
You'd take all these risks in account to "clean" them,
and then you'd fail to properly sterilize them anyway.
There's a reason why they call those dishes "disposable".
They were designed for a SINGLE use.

^ on this, stonesun and i can agree.


as for bloodkil,
im for safety and good lab practice.

im sorry that peeps are offended when i point out their folly.
if i told peeps the easy feel good, guess and hope answer,
id be just like.......

were talking contams and 3 cent plastics.
hardly worth defending poor practice when there are health concerns.

your knowledge of advanced lab skills,
and bio safety is apparent,
its why your in permanent sharpie next to frank.

i could care less your opinion on my demeanor,
i do care, if a noob contams himself or grow,
listening to half baked BS, to save a disposable plastic dish.

pardon me.

become aware of the hazards of contams.
your grow will be better, and your health will last longer.

get a liver scan blood,
something tells me youve been handing contams poorly.

i pop up on these threads, not for my health,
but because im sick of seeing peeps advise noobs in risky ways.
if we lose growers to safety errors, or lose grows to contams,
the community is diminished.

standard should be excellence, not cost expedience over safety.

I oddly agree with Anne.

If you are worried about future contamination they can be PCed to kill the mold before disposal, but this will also deform the plates beyond use (they deform but don't fully melt so there's no mess in your PC but also no reusing them).

Would that not get spores all over my PCer? I pressure cooker my contaminated jars before dumping them into the compost, but I assume the spores, which again I'm assuming some are still viable, at least endospores, stay in the jars at least. If the petris burst wouldn't I essentially be risking contaminating both my PCer and house seeing as the PCer released steam, and thus spores, into the air? Seems safer to me to just strait throw them out and let the garbage men/city deal with it lol. Maybe tape them shut first.

real fast, i have a yacht club dinner, and the taxi is killing me.

fill a big bucket with 10% bleach.
put an old towel in, pull it out, wring it,
and place it over the bucket,
take your contianers of question,
put them in bucket under towel and open under the water line.
they will bubble as they sink
towel keeps in most contams that may escape.
let sit 24 hours, then scoop out stuff in containers,
and wash and dry...........
bleach bucket with all the contams, can now be safely disposed.

this works on about everything but plastic disposable petris
