Agar Contam?
    #26904777 - 08/28/20 06:50 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I inoculated some pasty plates 3-4 days ago and not seeing any growth except on one plate. I'm not worried about the other plates.

First time with agar, after inoculating this plate (upside down) from a spore print and sterile disposable inoculation loop under a SAB, the agar fell onto the lid while I was closing it. I quickly flipped it over and it settled back onto the bottom. It's the only plate with any growth:





Should I get this one ready to start over?

Can I clean it out by opening it while submerged in bleach water or soap water? Attempting to save the mini-round

oh dude dont worry, my garbage can is right outside my grow room (like less than 8 ft apart) and i just throw the pucks in. Just throw em in the trash, wash with soap and water and you'll be fine. Just don't trash that bad boy like IN your grow room
