My agar stuff is on the way I'm excited.





Agar has me mad with power haha.

I followed the TEK and was supposed to be able to fill 10 plates.

Well I filled the 10 plates decently thick and still had a shitload left over.

I honestly thought I would have failed my first attempt but it actually went better than expected.

I will probably throw some away because I won't get to it in time. Ran out of jars and lids just today.

Oh well. I can finally relax and just play the waiting game.

I have read a lot of agar TEKs and I think I am going to write one up of my own. I like BODs method with the 500ml Pyrex glass Bottle.

I need to put stuff in my journal anyway

Yeah I bought one it's on the way but wouldn't you think no pour would be easier for a beginner?

I didn't mind spending the cash on the supplies only because it's a long term investment for me personally.

I think the Pyrex glass bottle is badass as well haha.

It's up to use but I like the plastic petri dishes and pouring them in my SAB.

It may be more work in some ways but in other ways it's not


Honestly after you  mix the 3 ingredient sup in the agar bottle and PC it the only thing left to do is wait for the temperature to fall the a point where you can pour them.

Then wait until the plates have cooled for 5 mins and put some spores in each plate.

This is just my take on it. Whatever you feel more comfortable doing you should do.

But if you have any questions here is the TEK and I would gladly answer any questions you might have in a PM

Flame the needle and drop a drop of MS onto the dish then use your flamed sterilized loop to make a swirl pattern.

But thinking back to my petri dishes making a streak plate using a zig zag pattern but it didn't do shit.
It started colonizing right where I put the drop of solution

Here's some pics to show you. I dropped some solution right on the little hole where I shoved my loop in. Clearly I got different results haha. I wouldn't worry about the streak pattern so much. I would just drop a drop on each plate and let them colonize. Then once they are colonized AGAR to AGAR is simple as pie. Then you never have to use MS again






FULLY COLONIZED :smile:

This first one is like a 3-D wave at the end. Fucking dope



I have so much AGAR i either use 1/3 or a half of the entire plate to put right into a sterilized grain jar and shake away.

That's fucking dope man thanks for the info, one last question off the top of the dome. Can you go spore print to agar? Like just scrape some spores onto the petri?

Here's an update! The pinset in the tray is popping through decent, not the most uniform but I've let it get dried out to much now. My 2nd flush from the Burma cake is putting out some monsters! And I have 3 shoeboxes into fruiting, one still colonizing and 2 more I'll be spawning today!
Also hopefully my agar supplies get in today and I'll be working with that and clones/prints.

That last pic is for you mushboy! Lol;)

Yeah your telling me man.. shit looks sad to me :frown: I'll pick this flush and toss the sub I don't like even looking at it lol.

Yeah the tray looks better today I'm having more hopes for it, I've been watching it every hour or so to make sure surface conditions are optimal and it's looking a lot better. I'll probably taken some more pics later because that one doesn't do it justice. There is maybe 6 pins in that pic and 30+ now.

Also i just spawned 2 more shoeboxes but 1 of them seemed like the rye might have been fighting some bacteria so I marked it iffy lol.
