LFH so much money when you should be getting 98-100% success in a SAB. a LFH won't help you out if you're not getting those numbers in your SAB anyway, but if you are(good technique), and have money to blow, then I guess a LFH is a cool upgrade

why not? i've had great success isolating in a still air box. LFH is not necessary, and is only really effective in a full lab situation.

Ease of mind and it will hopefully be a little bit more forgiving if I accidentally move my hands in the wrong way

like bodhisatta said, if your following proper sterile technique, working in a SAB will yeild high 90% success rates. theres no harm giving it a try.

It's all most of us use for our agar. Frank, Notahacker420, myself, and many many many others do excellent with just a SAB. If you can't get success in a SAB a LFH won't help you at all.

a LFH is not magic, it's not going to make you better, it's just a bit better place to work in. Moving your hand the wrong way can still blow contams into your work. You only sanitize your gloves, if anything the air will push it into your work while using a SAB you might have a chance. Either way you have to work perfectly.

a grow room doesn't need an air scrubber unless you're letting your fruits spore everywhere and don't want your house full cube spores. Not sterile is still not sterile.
I say make a bigger SAB, and practice like all of us did. No one did 100% the first few times.
