I confess this hobby is a lot more work than I thought it would be starting out. Between agar, g2g’s, and harvesting/maintaining tubs it can get to be a lot. Kinda slowing down a bit after my last big run. I have a bunch of new prints and a couple swabs now though that I want to get started. So much to do with so little time.

You aint kidding. I'm looking forward to running some bigger batches and stop hustling every week. Winter is coming, i need to spend more of my capable time doing things like cutting wood.

For sure. Life gets busy with work and responsibilities. Sometimes we just need to relax too.

I do agar batches ahead of time to test out different compositions. then store them in the fridge for later.
I have 3 qts in the fridge rn. My freezer is packed with various grain soaks/boils & some oddities.
If theres something I'm not using in the house thats nutritional and going bad, I'll usually boil it, then strain the h20. Potatos, Yams, Wheat, Protein powder, Tea, etc Sometimes I break out the buchner funnel and vacuum.
I can't stop tinkering with agar.
Keep it simple stupid is something I constantly have to remind myself and fight the urge to fuck around. Then again....

I confess I thought all people with this hobby had spotlessly clean houses, I confess my house is currently in no condition for this hobby. I confess I prefer hunting although it's just finished.
I also confess I take my cat for walks in the backyard sometime...

 I love having the house to myself to work when I get the chance. I can have my buckets and jars and whatever supplies/tools laying all around while working,and not get that WTF look when my wife walks in the kitchen.
Got a lot done so far this morning. Harvested a couple 2nd flush brf cake boxes.

Got some pasty plates ready for later.

Spawned another set of shoeboxes.(coir prepped last night)

Prepped another brick of coir.

Designed another outdoor box...
 (ok that's a stretch. )
Time for a break.
