Out of the pc and unopened for 3 weeks and that happened? Doesn't seem right. I tried germinating some plates that didn't take and after a month I reused them for another culture to see if it would work and they did

Yeah were these kept in a humid wet environment ( such as pc)?
I've found if the filters don't dry after some time they will fail and let mold in.

yeah I thought maybe the mini round lids were the problem but it happened to the 1/2 pints too. IDK

I took them out of the PC and put them in a plastic bag so they very well could have stayed damp for awhile

I've had pasty plates sit for months and stay clean.

Oh FUCK yeah. Lol. I use unmodified lids. Just invert them so they don't deal. For plastic minirounds or ziploc I poke a hole in the side with a hot nail and put two layers of microspore tape. But this is entirely so it doesn't cave in on itself. The glass jars don't need this.

This is the biggest I'd have the hole in anything, especially the minirounds.

That's a pretty huge hole though, tape is not enough to hold that for weeks, imo. Dry or not.
In the pictures it does look like the foils were left on though. That'd be a HUGE vector.

I've left mine in the PC for a week and a half, and I leave the foils on until I use them, sometimes the agar dries but they never grow anything... my holes are more than halfway between lobi's and noob's

I like pcing for 45 minutes. Cutting corners is hit or miss under 45 minutes in my experience with pasty plates.

Those look wet and funktified. What's your grain prep? Are you spreading the grains out and letting them dry off before jarring?

I cleaned a few syringes, wrapped them up in foil, and threw them in the PC with my agar. They ok to sit wrapped up on the shelf for a day or two until I use them? Or should I throw them back in the PC before I use them.

If you don't take the foul off they are fine. I have a syringe wrapped in foil that I sterilized 2 months ago. I just inoculated some 2 month old platesa couple days ago with wedges, and the mycelium is jumping off this morning. I just learned myself that you shouldn't leave the foil on lol. Luckily for me I only had condensation, no bacteria.
