No problem... It colonized wayyyyy faster with the grain to grain...it only took a week or so for full colonization... That way you can turn one fully colonized Master jar into several... I'm getting into to agar now as well...but this site has a ton of info...I learn new teks everyday

Lol yeah I'm always learning new tens. I want to try agar and have been wanting to try it for a while now but no place around here sells it and I'm kind of concerned about ordering it online....agar seems to be so easy to do. I'm intrigued lol if u try that let me know how it turns out!

I can't see much in the photo's but if everyone else says good then maybe it is.
I stepped up my game to agar.
The agar works is superior to nocing grains versus MS syringes but it will work. That's how I started out as well. It just seems like it takes forever using MS with grains.
ALso with agar you can do transfers and pretty much know you are working with a clean culture for the most part.
And yea... whole oats are the shit. You can either soak or do a no soak boil tek which I have started using.
Being the oats have a hull they are much more forgive when it comes to burst grains. Not to mention, they are usually pretty clean as far as dirt, etc goes.

That probably would be a good thing to switch to then. And yeah, the agar being a cleaner way to go is why I've wanted to try it that way. I just need the extra cash for the supplies for that kind of tek. It will be a while because at the moment my extra cash is going to be getting put into getting my motorcycle running again

You shouldn't have any concerns about ordering agar online. It's used in cooking, amongst other things. Just say you're wanting to mix up some exotic dishes.
-------------------- Cheap - fast - good. Pick any two and it won't be the third.

Yeah but isn't there quality variations with agar just as there is quality variations with anything else? I want to see it with my own eyes held in my own hands before buying. I'm picky about things like that, I only like to buy good quality stuff so I don't end up with something crappy in the end and have to spend more money on something better, ya know?
