just keep practicing. best advice i can give is to make smaller neater transfers. yours are really jagged like they were ripped out or something.
are you sure those are 2% the cultures that are healthish looking are also really dense. they look like they are growing on 4% media imo
edit: jhova beat me to the nutes

Also with the nutes, I used Briess Golden Light Dry Malt Extract on the last pour at 8g with 8g Agar and 400ml+ of water. Maybe I should switch back to the LMEA that I was using from Out-Grow?

Yes! You are the shit! Thank you for this, I will read tonight. It's frustrating when you see other members with there first crack get plates that look amazing and I'm getting nowhere near this kind of uniformity.

I will do the same, is it worth cleaning up the ones that I posted taking a tiny piece of the outside edges?

What's wrong with the spores? Do a little better with your transfers and you'll be fine. That said there be Thai Lipa Yai around when you get to the marketplace

Thanks Quirkmeister92, not sure if there is anything wrong with the spores. They are GT and B+. The GT's have looked like garbage on ALL transfers to date and I have 3 so far. The B+ has developed better and appear more fluffy than the GT's. When I cut into the edge of the B+ for transfers, it seems to deflate a little or least it seems. B+ more uniform and thicker for sure throughout and thanks for the advice.

You are awesome Apc123, so much love here and I'm impressed. Been at it for about 4 months now and no way am I gonna throw in the towel. Too much to gain from this experience- persistence and patience to name a couple. Just finished some of the better looking B+ transfers (#4) with mushboy's help and keeping an eye on the 10 jars that I have going now at day 9. My only regret it not finding this site sooner.
