A2G Glass No-pours Question
    #26776772 - 06/23/20 01:21 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Hey guys, how do y'all usually go about this?

I have always tic tac toe'd and have had to scrape the pieces loose from the "plate",
then carefully scoop those pieces into my grain jar. I've gotten comfortable doing it, but
I know there's gotta be a better way? I would do the whole or half plate, but I like how fast
all the inoc points make colonization.

Trying to tighten up steps of my process as I've been trich'ing out recently into flush 2.

Thanks,
Z

I like to cut my 100mm plate into 10 pizza slices, because my PC holds 10 quart jars, then I spear each slice per jar.

A glass petri or a jar? Never used glass petris, started with plastic then moved onto jar no pours for re-use ability.
I get my jar of grains and tip it to the side so the grains stack up against the side leaving a deep void on the other side so the wedges can go down deep in there then tip again to cover with all the grains and a little shake too.
Cut the jar like a pizza into 6-10 wedges and throw about 3-5 in each jar. (jars are smaller than 90-100mm petri)

Usually use 1 jar for 2 quarts of spawn for speed but could stretch that alot more if you wanted. Lots of ways to skin a cat as they say :laugh:

Appreciate the responses. I should have added that I use the half pint mason jars for plates,
but I have a tendency of getting too wordy in my posts.

Didn't think to stab/drop each piece at a time. Def sounds a lot cleaner than how I go about it.

I may also "shish kabob" a few slices at a time and slide them off into the grain jar so the lid's
not open as long.

If my memory serves me correctly then the preferred scalpel blade of many around these parts for agar work is the #11 blade which makes it easier to stab and lift up pieces of agar.

For sure. They're what I use.
