load syringe from behind

Hello, i received this LC but the syringe its too short to extract the LC.
Can I load it opening the syringe from behind? Also it helps because the LC is to solid to get through the needle.
Thanks! Trying to grow again since 2015.

What kinds of tops are on those vials? Are you opening them to extract the LC?

Are you using an SAB or flowhood?

What say you fooman? I would say that pouring the LC into the syringe in an SAB wouldn't be too big of a risk. Given proper cleanliness was kept. of course pouring the LC directly into a jar is another idea you could play with

Will try with grains on monday but was starting with this grain verm casing kit so I need the needle to go deep.
Will sure try more teks this week, but I still have the "short needle" problem.
thanks for the answers!

Use a clean petri dish as a transfer dish between the vial and the syringe. Or a clean PF jar.

Will try on the pf jar, so loading it from the back of the syringe isnt a good idea haha thanks. Still inoculated that 2 plates, will see what happen in a week.

Use a clean shot glass, or simply tilt the vials a bit so the needle reaches. Another option is go to a farm supply store and buy longer lower gauge needles.

Sterile swab to agar. You trust this culture to be contaminant free?

Yes i will look for longer needles, if I use a shot glass, wipe it with iso? or PC it?

I hope is a good culture, bought it, im really a newbie so nothing of agar for now.
But a store here sells sterilized agar plates with an antibiotic do you think its worth?
they sell them 5 for 18$ and 13$ without the antibiotic.

It certainly wouldn’t hurt to have them at your disposal.

anti-biotic agar is sometimes not meant for edible cultivation just fyi.

U can load it from behind (giggity) but its a pain in the ass (double giggity). The easier way is a transfer using a jar or Petri dish.

wash the shot glass with warm soapy water then wipe with iso inside your SAB
