fucked agar plates? any way to fix?
    #23755024 - 10/20/16 02:17 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

so ive been looking for an answer all day and cant seem to find one. my agar plates have hella condensation on the lids so i flipped them over as ive read to do, but it makes it hard to see if there is any colonization happening. i did wait until the agar was cool enough to handle without protection, but i guess it wasnt cool enough. next time i will use pastywhites idea about cooling it in a tub of water.

any way to fix this though? put them back in the SAB and dump it out or what?

It helps to stack them.  If you pour in a stack method only the top couple will get condensation.  You can also shuffle the top two down to the bottom a bit later and they might clear up.  Also, I've noticed if you run your finger over the top surface of the lid the drops will condense together and follow your finger around...static or heat is my only guess as to why this works.

LOL.  You just had him link to someone else's recommendation to do what I suggested above. Do you get points or something for people clicking your links?

i think he was referring to the hot cup tek, which is working beautifully i must say. however the condensation is falling onto my agar, hopefully they are bacteria free. when do you usually see growth from an LC?

also, what containers do you think are the best to use? im thinking about doing pastywhytes glad mini round tek due to the reusability of the dishes. seems it may be cheaper in the long run. and i hate waiting for shipments to come in the mail. once my Agar work takes off i can see it will take quite a few dishes.

its fun work but requires patience :frown:
