Bad agar?
    #26568091 - 03/30/20 08:28 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

So I like to keep a media bottle stored for later purposes and it's been about 3 to 3.5 weeks since I made this green batch.


I noticed when I stored the bottle away it had some agar up on top and I didn't think anything would happen to it. Perhaps I let it cool down too much in the PC and something snuck in?

Do you think that the batch is now bacterial?

Brf and agar-agar mixture.

Surface condition of agar looks good.

For the love of the shroom gods, I hope that the green is from dye and not some weird industrial diseased bacterial growth which eventually leads
to some kind of fungus /bacterial induced zombie apocalypse lol.

Anywho... Reheating your agar will kill any contams that tried to work their way into your agar concoction.  Personally, I never like to reheat my agar more than twice -although I remember using the same stuff 3 times without any consequences.

But remember: every time you reheat you risk the fact of breaking down/caramelizing the sugars into stuff which is not ideal for mycelial growth. This is why evry time you sterilize your agar becomes less clear and more brownish. Hope this helps.
