I just transferred a small slice of myc from agar (size of a grain of rice) to new agar plate! I flame sterilized scalpel then cooled in receiving dish. Took the piece, but it wasn't easy dropping it into plate, so I kinda smudged it unto new agar. Is this ok? Or was I not suppose to place it that way? I always see or read about it being flung unto the new agar. Should I be concerned?

That cam clone plate looks awesome!  How do you like working with, and eating cam?  I have cam in some shoeboxes from MS that I want to clone and it has been a ripping consolidator!  Just waiting on pinning now.  Looking forward to grabbing some clones if all goes well.  My experience has all been B+, GT (of course), some Z strain I picked up...not sure what it is, other than being a cube, but it was the fastest growing variety I've tried.  I now am jumping into BHT (transferring 1st BHT transfer this weekend, MS to PDA), Brazil, and Mex to broaden the horizons, but have been most pleased with the colonization of the cam.

I’ve enjoyed my Cams.  Produced some of the largest fruits and bruised dark blue.

Well say hello to my first agar dishes....

Soooo. The condensation and fog will go away with time.. and dont use anything if I see stuff growing on it in 3 days? Lol

I've found that stacking the plates while the agar is still warm will cut down on condensation. As far as the 3 day growth...it all depends. Spores can germinate within that time frame although not generally...if something sprouts in 3 days post the pic here and we'll help ya out! Good job on your first Agar plates...the mad scientist is strong with you!
