I don't have condensation issues And even if you get condensation it would all go away in about a week or so.
Cool! Once I get back to work after all this Corona stuff. I think I may have to snag me a few!

I haven't tried but i think is possible. May i ask why you wouldn't want to try the no-pour side of this tek?

You would have to sterilize in the pc. Then pour. But personally I hate pouring plates. I find no pour easier. Don’t have to pay attention to temps or wait for a certain time. Pretty much guaranteed.

I always shake my head when people say pouring is easier.. it takes way more effort/concentration. I’ve been loving these. No mod, no pours. I can sacrifice the crystal clear petri dishes vision for convenience of these holy grails any day.
Here is some albino cambo that is cleaning up nicely.

Edit: Are you guys wrapping them in cling wrap? I wasn’t going to but it makes for easy labeling and a layer of protection doesn’t hurt.

I been doing pour using co2's Tek, so I am use to doing that. I invested in a media bottle and I want to use it all the time. Seems like pressure cooking the media bottle is simpler than pressure cooking the holy grail with agar in them. I just don't want to change my technique up. I just receive 20 of them holy grails in the mail the other day and it just cross my mind. Thought that I wasted money on them since I still wanted to pour. But either way, I like the fact that they are reusable that is why I got them.

Yeah that’s fair.
If you sterilized them then poured I don’t see why they wouldn’t work.

Well, the only thing different from disposable petri dishes is that they are easier to pour than these HG petris, with disposable petridishes you only need to lift the lid and pour, with these you would need to unscrew the lid, lift the lid, and close the lid, with each HG petri. But is totally possible. No doubt about it.
PNat, i still think you should try the no pour. These plates are even more easier vs lets say pasty plates that you need to poke a hole and cover it with filter material. These are Unmodded, there is really no real benefit of pouring other than controlling the condensation. But with these HG plates, condensation is super easy to deal with. With the mason jar method, 3 out of 6 in average will result FREE of condensation, you only would need to wait for the other 3 to dry, all the condensation will dry within a week or so. If you sterilize 7 mason jars with 6 HG in each of them, you would get 21 plates free of condensation and by the time you need to use the other 21 they have already dried 
Can't find that c02 tek, but you surely haven't wasted your money. You can pour or no-pour, it would work for both. But i really recommend you to go ahead and do the no-pour. Save your sterile technique for the later stages.

That's what i been saying, people here says. NO I NEED 10/10 visibility. I say but these have 9/10 visibility , i mean you are not running an enterprise, you are home mushroom grower, you don't need 10/10, even if you are a TC. But whatever... haha.
I labeled them with tape as eatu suggested. Just buy a easy to take off tape, you can use that tape to label them on the sides or bottom of the plates. Bottom has more surface for the tape to attach tho.

I meant c10's agar TEK. I read this whole thread from page one before I place an order for the HG dish and thought your tek was pretty well written and a great idea for doing agar besides buying disposable petri dishes. I will go ahead and give the no pour a try. Thank you guys for your inputs.

Yeah I am still waiting on mine. I have 8 of these already and 40 of another manufacturer that isnt as clear of plastic. That's only difference. The lids from one fit the other. So I'm waiting on another 40. It's taking a while since they use a Hong Kong factory to produce them.

Yay. Got my 5 orders today. I'm let them sit in corner for 2 days just to let the possible coronavirus on it die. They are from hongkong. Better safe than sry. I also sanitized the box it came In and tossed it back outside. This coronavirus is scary. I will die if I get it.

Me too mr alien. I quit working week and 1/2 ago. My work (residential construction (trim carpenter)) is considered essential. Bullshit man. I'm not doing it anyway till I feel safe. This is the worst thing to our species and we aren't fixing it. Just dying. Really hard times for the whole world. We are in this thing together. One tribe. Stay home family Grow mushrooms = safety at home
