I've been doing the same thing since you's told me sfd's are waterproof. But i'm using metal lids and they're started to break down kinda quick, thinkin about switching back.
Also i reuse foil covers when i use them for my pf jars. Just fold'em up into a box and reuse until they wear a hole in them.

Today i almost blew the fuck out of my microwave and my face trying to melt A CLOSED GLASS BOTTLE with agar.
The idiot (me) was looking through the microwave door watching it boil.
Came to the conclusion that TODAY is definetively not a mycology day.

I confess, this desire to grow every varietal possible is getting out of hand. My shoebox promise to the gf is always at risk of being broken into a stack of monotubs. I think I'm going to try and feed the beast by investing in a MarthaTek and growing edibles on the side.

I confess, I wish I would have spent the money on real petrie dishes, and supplies for pour agar instead of the GH and all the fixings...thats already been taken down lol
GH is cool fr..but would have gotten a lot more use from the agar supplies Next bit of extra cash I can come up with is going that route

I confess. I feel silly. My mind didn't even think to tip it forward. I was up in that bitch with a tooth pick. Then gave up and decided to just run it before each use and work higher in flow as most of the debris is in the first inch or so off the bottom of the filter. I also confess I haven't used foil in months and I'm pumped about it. That shit ain't cheap. It's the main reason I wanted to get away from pasty plates. Blowing thru 8$ worth of foil every other week. I still use poly lids. I just let them cool in the PC then unload in flow and let them dry before I use em. I also confess. I've been nailing my oat prep latley. Thanks to all the people that got me away from soaking my oats. Yesterday I went from oats in a bag to Jarred up oats in front of the hood in one evening. They were just how I'd want them too. I owe a lot of that to hot,dry, windy weather yesterday although I got to give myself some credit for pulling them off at just the right moment.

Lol, I usually use that term, but had seen the term "edibles" floating around here. I'm just trying to be hip to the lingo so that all the cool kids will like me!

I switched from using the word edibles to gourmet when I was talking to someone and said

I recommend looking up teks for AGAR, becasue this is not the best way to do it (Bod has a solid one), but after watching this video I was very confident that pouring agar was going to be no problem.
I've never once had agar go poorly for me, even when I've really done stupid shit. Once I let it cool too much and it poured lumpy like oatmeal, no contams just ugly. Once I used potato water + molasses + agar for my recipe, still got growth but it was ugly!
The only problems I ever have with pouring my own agar is when I do stupid things... like drop shit.
You got this!

I confess. I just did my first G2G from a jar that was G2G from a LC. Not sure what you call that. Or if the way I said it makes any sense. But damn it feels good. I've come a long way.

Oh I've fucked some agar way up. Lol. Got to the second from the top on a 10 plate stack and took the whole top plate but thought I was getting the lid from the second from the top. Poured hot agar all.over all of the plates and all over my work space. Tried to salvage them but no dice. They were fubared
