Re: Pasty Agar Tek [Re: BaronVonBud]
    #23603611 - 09/02/16 03:17 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

I've used up all my 40 pre-poured agar dishes I've ordered a while ago
to get started without too much hassle but finally have put my PC to
a good use making Pasty Plates.

Couldn't find the round Glad minis around here but came across these



Just whipped up 8 of them in no time.



In terms of handling it was not the most pleasant experience in the SAB because
of the screw on lids but manageable.

I've started cultures from spores (subaeruginosa) for an out door patch
to inoculate grains.

What I like about it in my case is the following:

The pre-poured agar dishes I've bought were probably high in nutrition
which caused slow and fluffy / flimsy growth and the mycellium was pissing
all over the place from the center on outwards, I first thought it was contam.

I have done the first transfer from one master plate to the last two of pre-poured
agar dishes and 10 days later I whipped up the pasty plates and transferred
from the same sectors of the same master plate which was 3 days ago.
The difference in growth is quite noticeable I think.

pre-poured dish after 13 days


pasty plate after 3 days



Cool bananas!

I got a couple of questions though.

I had quite heavy condensation in my plates......shook them and poured
the excess water out. That got rid of most of the water but there are still
droplets on the lid and sides which makes it a bit difficult on some plates
to have a proper look at the point of interest.

Now do you guys think it might be a good idea to sterilize a bunch of
cut up paper towels same time doing the pasty plates in the PC?
When serilized one could wipe the lids clean with them.
In my case the lids would provide good sight if not obscured by moisture.
Well I'll try it any way, but it will be a while till then.

Second question:

As Pasty stated in OP "make sure the agar doesn't contain any sugar".
I mean we are adding a drop of glucose syrup to the mix so if I would
refrain from doing so, would it be ok if the agar I use would contain
0.2g of sugar per 5g of agar. This would basically count up to the same
amount of carbohydrates, right?

used the non sugar containing agar for the plates but am curious
as I got the sugar type as well.

first: just leave the small amount of condensation after you have shaken and gotten the most of it out in SAB. it will dry up in a few days/week.

second: i guess if it would come out to be about the same, then it should be fine. just dont use any extra sugar with it. im not sure if there needs to be a "certain type" of sugar for it, though. i think it does need a specific type, but i really cant remember right now. and maybe most sugars are this specific type, or at least break down to that type.

Check the other ingredients.  It was something extra in the presweetened agar that was making it less ideal.

It's because its refined sugar which makes cultures lazy.

Where'd you find those, how much did they cost, and are they flat bottomed? The one draw back to the glad mini's is the indentation on the bottom. If there are readily available flat alternatives I'd be down for trying them out.

I think I might try the pasty tek just to get a fruit to clone from.  Those containers look like excellent little tiny infant baby microclimates.

Pft, Microclimate?  Nonsense.



Not all "pasty plates" but you get the idea.  Sterile clones launched me from noob to boob pretty quick I found.

Alright I give up, what's so funny?  The parallel between mycelium and humans where refined sugar also makes us act like lazy shits?  Or something way simpler than that?

There was recently a series of test done on rats where refined sugar and cannabis were used to "prove" that cannabis was making them lazy. Im assuming thats what he was reffering to- if not- I just find humor where I want to I guess.

I think he was being serious and that just puts into perspective how stupid that cannabis study must've been.  Like, two variables, but you're associating the results with only one of them?  Unscientific as fuck.

Well of course but it was funded and those are the only tests that get to people's ears.

I went browsing through all sorts of variety shops for usable containers
and found these at a clearance sale. That was at a Sunny's Variety Store (NZ)
and the brand name is "Snazzee". But these are made in China and I
came across them in a couple of other stores having different lables on them.
Payed about US$ 1.20 each (seen them for up to $3.00 elsewere)

Yes they are flat and got a clear window on the lid so its easy to
see whats going on inside.

So first of all I am completely new to cultivation and have only done 2 MS brf cake grows.

Thanks to Pasty agar tek I think im on the right track. Got some experience to gain and some dialing in to do but I really owe my future progess to this tek.



Getting started id like to say all the instructions are really easy to follow agar is easy to make and prepping the containers was easy as well. I think the hardest part is getting the pressure right but im a complete noob.


So after making these i noticed i had some condensation alot to be honest but i did some reading and i think i have nothing to worry about if everything fails its a learning experience and ill try again but off to the SAB for some spores.



Now theres nothing like seeing all my work on the shelf as it "hopefully grows" btw knocked up 12 jars pf style with the remaining multiapore solution. One thing I think I ran out of solution on that last jar but I did what I could.
