I probably "waste" 95% of a print the way I utilize them. A slide has a place to grip it and you can just scrape off it till everything's gone.
Scraping foil is awful, so I just started pressing the print right onto the agar, like a rubber stamp. Can even fold the foil across the print's center, then stamp one half on a plate and the other half on another. Or quarters, etc...
That sounds like a huge waste of a print to me. If you want the print to last keep it clean.

Oh, I don't use the whole print on one plate. I fold the foil so that I can just "stamp" a small amount per plate, and then save the rest.

Idk but that all sounds way more complicated than dragging a loop 1/16” across the print and streaking a plate.
When I started I didn’t think there was anyway the loop had worked. Touching a wire to some spores and then rubbing it on a plate where nothing visually changes.

Ya, i still feel like nothing happens. But my prints are old now, so there's that. Currently having fun with some plates showing rhizo PE finally.

I love PE for that fact. I just use a swab I will print on wax paper, but they rub off a little too easy, sometimes.

First I’ve heard of this. I will definitely give it a shot.

Guys, in my first run and I forgot to put the foil layers on the jars' caps before putting them in the cooker (I covered the caps' holes with micropore tape tho), and they stayed there for like 5+ minutes, then I got them out and put the foil on the jars... There was already water on the caps, damn it. Do you think it'll be a problem?

If it's the PF tek and the dry verm layer got too wet then it could increase the chances of contam.

I don't know if anyone is the market for a new electric stove but if you are, don't get one that has sensi temp burners. I didn't know what that was until I tried to run my PC on it for the first time yesterday.
I couldn't even get it to vent because the it kept cooling itself down. Turns out, those burners are designed to prevent cooking fires by shutting down when the cookware gets past a certain temperature. I bought old style burners off the zon in hopes that I can swap em out but my stove is a GE and supposedly it's a bit harder to find compatible burners for those.

I haven't had an electric oven in decades! Fire is so much more efficient at heating. Plus, you're cutting out the middle man. Somewhere, something was most likely combusted to produce that electricity. You lose energy when it travels the wires to reach you, you lose when it runs through the metal conductors....generating so much resistance that heat is generated. So inefficient.... Gas is the way to go....if you're in the market for a new stove....or water heater for that matter.

I miss gas. Everything out here is electric. Almost nobody has gas. It's a bitch when you lose power 10 times per year.

Hey so it's my first go around with mycology. I inoculated 2 weeks ago (brf) and only 5 of my 11 jars have started to colonize I know patience is the key but is this common? I know each jar will grow at it own rate based on lots of different conditions especially since in different jars. I have been directed to this forum ( I'm sure it's not the right thread but I'm trying to learn). So just any insight is greatly appreciated.

I will always have a gas range but I hate gas ovens. Gas range/electric oven combos are WAY out of our budget at the moment but that's what I'm looking forward to

Use a sterile swab, swab the print, then plates? Works for me.

Hey all. I have received a whole sheet of spore prints from a forager, probably over a dozen prints, but they are on a single sheet of printer paper. I’ve never used spores on paper before. I know some spores will get stuck in the pores of the paper, but all the prints are dark and plentiful.
Will they be ok to store like this? On paper and in a ziplock in a cool dark place, or should I make a bunch of swabs from the prints and store them in that fashion? They are wild ovoid prints from early this year, and I would really like to preserve and share these genetics. Any advice is appreciated.

Yea that's the exact same reason why all portable hot plates are total shit except the cadco CSR. It's all for your saaaafety.
