1-2k plates going at a single time?

So, we've lured you into this thread so we can sit you down and have a talk with you.

Why?

Because we care about you. You might not think you have a problem but we've all written letters stating how your addiction has effected us.

Hobbit, would you care to start by reading your letter to nichrome?

I'm all ears.

This one plate turned into 20 more in just a couple moves.

Very good to see you so active recently LotKid. I always love your insights and sense of humor.

Dont do it on our account. If youre gonna do it, do it for you.

If you enjoy juggling that many plates than it is what is. Do yo thang.

I just had to poke fun at the number. Because lets be honest, thats a lot of plates :lol:

:lol:

And thanks for the kind words. This place is a lot more fun when ppl dont take it supa dupa cereal. Like climate change or man bear pig.

Something is bothering me!

I bought all these cups and in having done my first PC agar'ing I think I want to transfer, no pun intended, to dishes...

I like the big one's and only need a few, what is a good deal on some quality dishes and what parafilm do I get?

As usual, thank you for any help...

Grafting tape FTW

As far as plates go.. the ones I get come in a case of 500.. so it depends how many you're trying to get.. a full case is definitely the most cost efficient way to go.. the cases I get are like $105 after shipping

Which of the 3 tape rolls do yo use?

Green
Yellow
Clear

Oh I don't do it for you.

I'd keep 20k plates going if I had the space.

I just thought you were being cool like me and labeling the outer edge of the plate :lol:

:lol:

@shroomsmurf .. I use whatever I've got on hand, but I like the green ones (the tape is actually clear, it just looks green on the roll) they're the ones that fit the edge of the plate the best without any extra covering the top/bottom of the plate..

Feel like I just got out of surgery.

Did about a dozen transfers, some of which I’ve been putting off. 4 plates had probably a tablespoon of water in them. Most of it stuck to the lid, but the lightest jostle makes them move and drop. Mycelium was all weird and soaked. Easily torn instead of cut. And the agar was super soft.

Not sure what caused that. Maybe they were the last plates poured out of that bottle or something. Hopefully the transfers recover.

That is how I feel after long runs in the SAB.

After doing 47 transfers the other day I felt the same way.

Buy 500 now. Or you are gonna rip through 20, then another 20 and another 20 for almost the same price.
