How long after inoculating an agar plate should I see activity?
    #27026639 - 11/07/20 11:29 AM (4 years, 2 months ago)

I inoculated 3 agar dishes 5 days ago and i'm not seeing any activity. How long does it usually take for something to become visible? Some plates that got briefly exposed to air showed contamination within a day so i'm guessing no activity still shows hope.

I didn't streak the spore solution on to the plates, just squirted and shut right away. They've been kept from 70-79 degrees the whole time.

Anywhere from 3-10 days is normal with a good sample. Maybe a little longer, maybe a little shorter. I've had weird plates that didn't show anything for like three weeks but those had to be chucked due to contams

*edit* for future reference use only a drop of MS and streak it! Also do a lot of plates just in case you get contams or some crappy growth that you don't want to use.
