Yes, I reread your agar technique which sterilizes the agar in the pressure cooker and then distributes into petri dishes in the still air box. 

I plan on buying glass petri dishes so they will be reused.  I would like to know your process of cleaning the pyrex petri dishes to be reused.  I am thinking OH wipe and then foil and then bake?

Your guide is excellent and I am excited to begin the lab work.

Bod, as a new guy here and to the hobby your efforts are extremely appreciated.  Short, concise, clear info.  I dig it.  I'm venturing into agar and the agar thread Tormato started is awesome.  I have a quick question if you have time.  I have multiple projects going to stay engaged but recently had some serious success with LC.  I just tested two different varieties from LC to BRF jars that I had PCd and left over to check for contams in LC.  I only did two jars and the mycelium TORE through the substrate...That being said, I would like to just fruit the jars individually and simply.  I've read through a ton of methods but it is very arid where I am...what would be your BEST recommendation for fruiting?  A small single chamber, or just fruit in jar with Baggie over the top?  Should I dunk first?
Thanks in advance if you get to this...if not I understand you are probably busy as hell!

Somebody posted this and i was like oh hell no. If that was true then a half grown pin and a monster donger wud weigh the same, both dry. Assuming that they were gonna turn out the relatively the same size. Is this bullshit or am i missing something? Idk, that statements kinda got some holes and crappy corners tho. We talking bout potency or volume or size?

*As we know, when mushrooms grow, they don't grow by cell division. The cells expand as they engorge with water. A small pin has all the cells it will have as a large mushroom. That's why a small fruit has nearly as much actives as a much larger fruit. The larger fruit is engorged with water, thus it's less potent by weight. That's a fact. Five grams of small mushrooms are far more potent than a single five gram fruit. That's also a fact."
