Hey ash! I would get plain agar agar. You're more flexible with recipes when you get each ingredient yourself imo.

If you scroll down on that page there is a link to this recipe page:
Agar recipes
Im sticking to agar agar and light malt extract until I get things dialed in.
It's simple and you get less debris floating around your plate.
I recommend a media jar 500ml the same as Bod' recommends. The pouring lip helps in that sab.
Have fun!

Ash, the link you asked about on the previous page is a 'premix' agar. LME stands for light malt extract.
It's recommended to stay away from the premix stuff because you don't really know how much nutrients are in it.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L3TWR73/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_MNKDMZ5TKA8W06FXMZT7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 The link above is pure agar powder
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007XYGBXQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_RY7WEJFGP9WGM0R6EQQT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 This is LME.
It's nice to have these so you can adjust the amount of nutes and agar separately from each other

awesome thank u!! 
im not going to lie its so nice to live in an age where i can just click on links provided by knowledgeable people (yall fucking rock) and buy the needed raw ingredients to be delivered to my doorstep in 2 days. It must of been a journey to get all the materials 25 years ago
or godforbid like the 60s and 70s haha the pioneers of this musta just been pure genius and really lucky to stumble upon this fungus.
and of course huge respect to the first nations and indigenous peoples who cared for the medicine for thousands of years before college kids growing in closets lol

NEW QUESTION: Should I be PCing my scalpel handle? Or is soaking it in ISO good? I always change the blade and use a sterile one (and then flame it) for each work session and if im doing a LOT of plates even half way throu my session and constantly rub the handle down with iso but is that enou or shld i be PCing it?
I also douse it with lysol once a week and let it air dry to kill as much mold spores on it as possible

No need to pc. Just sanitize it with some iso before you start working, make sure to always flame sterilize the blade.

Try not to grip the handle low near the blade like you would a pen or pencil, learn to operate the scalpel with your hand as far from the blade as possible to prevent hovering your hand over your work.

for sure, ive been trying to do this already. Ive been trying my hardest to be ultra aware of anything going over the plate Even when theyre closed. Im treating it like trigger or barrel discipline. Even if I know its not loaded (open) im going to treat it like it is lmao.
Do they need to be stored in any kinda of ultra clean environment? Ive just been keeping them on my shelves with the colonizing jars.. I wipe them down with iso prep pads before working w them and they get sprayed w iso on their way into the SAB

As long as they're wrapped or stored in a bag or something they should be fine.
I find it's a pita to bulk them together in a bag post inoculation though, it makes it difficult to view them individually or to work with them period. If it works for you though then it works.

Yup, other than having funny looking material to wrap with, that's the way to wrap.

can someone please help me with this. Ive read it 1000 times and I cant figure it out. Can someone in plain language with no short hand tell me these 2 recipes to this please and what kind of yeast i need (im assuming not brewers yeast) Its from this thread: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18676888 "1) Malt-extract: 10g LME(a) / GLME (b), 10g agar Pictured here is GLMEA, it works great, pretty much the standard I judge media against."
"2) Potato dextrose yeast agar: 10g agar, 10g potato starch, 7g dextrose, 1g yeast Another de facto standard for media. This is my favorite recipe at the moment."
I promise I tried to figure it out but i cant and im getting frusterated and I just wanna make some plates. Pls spell it out for me like im the idiot i am
