Easy slants; a free, reusable test tube * 1
    #24049060 - 01/29/17 01:29 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Slants: these are a way of keeping a master culture that will last longer and take up less space than petri dishes. I don't see many people using slants. I think it's because you need to order test tubes and that alone is enough to scare some people off. Don't fret, they're easy.

This tek has the simplicity and ease of pasty plates but with the added storage space and longevity of franks incredibly useful slant tek. for those of you who have no experience with agar please read the first link I provided.

I live in a Recreational Marijuana state. I have a buddy who buys a lot of
Pre-rolls and he's been saving the joint tubes for an attempt at a trade in.(yeah right) that's when I noticed some of them are polypropylene (PP5)
(happy hills farms) I start by taking off the label (not necessary) Next we need to make sure our slants don't burst open from the pressure in our PC some people use a drill but I prefer to melt GE holes when I can. For this I just use my red hot dabber to melt a hole in the flat part of the lid like so
next, we need to filter the air coming in so, I sandwich the hole with micropore tape. Now it's time to cook up the Agar recipe of your choice. after you mix your agar you can load up your tubes (Be careful not to get agar on your filter!) I like to fill them 2/3 - 3/4 of the way up. at this point I close my lids all the way, then I set my jar upright and put my tubes in there from corner to corner leaning over. next, I put my jar lid on rubber side down. you can PC your jars upright no problem but I prefer a little more slant on mine so I put my jar on it's side with the tubes lid up like so (just make sure it doesn't roll)
at this point you can PC your slants like you would agar. and the final product should look something like this
Tips:
1. make sure all air going into your slants go through the filter. this means taking care to not puncture the micropore and making sure ridges in the plastic aren't preventing a seal somewhere.
2. make sure your lids are closed tightly before you PC otherwise you may have a mess in that jar

Then my girl says, "Stop smoking it you're making it run". Then proceeds to lick all over it.  I dunno, I think they are packed to tight.  I prefer the bong or dabbin

they aren't packed enough. I pretty much only dab unless someone's sharing bud. Anyway, we're off topic!
