Once I cut an inch or so off the end of a seran wrap roll and used that to wrap my Petri dishes by going around the edge. I kinda remember it being a bit of a bitch cause where I cut it, the plastic stuck to where I cut the roll and would tear. Sometimes it rolled out nice.

1 inch!?
You must be a wrapping pro dude. My parafilm usually breaks if I don't use at least 2 squares. My rolls at least 4 years old though so

Same. I use 3 for good measure but I can get 2 on my 90mm.
Internet for sure. I have a scientific supply store down to street from my house so I get a lot of stuff there actually. Just got some peptone for edibles the other day

I only use parafilm for certain cultures.
I have a couple cultures that grow noticeably slower on plates wrapped in cellophane vs. those wrapped in parafilm.
But for all basic purposes, I prefer cellophane over parafilm.
That's why I've had the same roll for 4 years

K, thanks for the info. I'm curious, if I got wbs that is more hydrated than others, is there a strain that would be more beneficial in those hydrated jars, like a stone producer?

Wow , parafilm acts just like my pecker.lol
Fuck, both monos should be flipped? It's been looking like it's going to start to pin 
I'll give it a couple more days and see what happens, then I'll flip it. I'm waiting on other things and don't have need of the tubs, fingers crossed I get sumthing , thanks for the heads up.
