why not just go ahead and print. its super easy. just take get SAB ready, take cap off, put on foil, let sit for 24-36 hours, take cap off, let sit for another 12-24 hours to dry.

I was just reading about it don't know if I can be bothered with any more sterilizing tbh not for a while any way lol its a difficult conundrum to eat or not to eat that is the question? I do have about 8ml syringe of GT in my fridge so I'm not short of spores anyway

its' your choice. was just saying that its really easy to do, with little effort. and what do you mean sterilizing? you dont need to sterilize anything to take a print. well, except maybe flaming your knife or whatever if youre gonna cut it off wit hit. i do that, but honestly, they werent fruited in sterile conditions anyways, so it probably wouldnt be a big deal to just use scissors. but make sure to use gloves, and SAB at least. going from a print, its a good idea to use agar, anyways, also.

I ment the foil doesn't that need to be sterile? I have ordered some sterilized petri dishes i buy things with no knowledge of how to use them but i quite like the idea of agar just need to read about it more and make the stuff

Agar can be easily made for pennies if you have a pressure cooker. $20 will get you started with no pour agar right off the bat. The value of a cheap PC cannot be overemphasized. It may seem like a big cost up front but seriously it will have been worth it after 2 grows.

nah you dont need to PC the foil. you can, if you want. i did once, but i dont anymore. i mean, think about it, the cap and spores themselves werent grown in sterile conditions.

No pour agar is a noob friendly method to do agar for cheap and without needing to order plates. It can be done with stuff you find in the supermarket. Here is the way I do it.

I have ordered some sterile petri dishes on a random ebay raid Read your tek seems fairly straight forward but instead of making all that can I not just buy potato dextrose agar and use that straight?

You can't PC plastic petri dishes anyway, they come pre-sterilized and are single-use only.
