Winston, could you get us a clear pic by chance? I’m interested in seeing that



Tried to get a good shot through the plate lid. I put it against a white door to hopefully make the spots easier to see. Sometimes the spots are easier to see when looking through a camera lens than with the naked eye.

This is a T3 by the way.





Anyone wind up having an opinion on this?

Never run into it on own plate, but I see what you’re talking about



Yeah, I'm real curious what others got to say about it. Seems like nothing ha!



That is strange discoloration.  Is it in the AGAR, between the agar and mycelium or in the mycelium?

Something is bothering me!

I bought all these cups and in having done my first PC agar'ing I think I want to transfer, no pun intended, to dishes...

I like the big one's and only need a few, what is a good deal on some quality dishes and what parafilm do I get?

As usual, thank you for any help...

Grafting tape FTW :rockon:

As far as plates go.. the ones I get come in a case of 500.. so it depends how many you're trying to get.. a full case is definitely the most cost efficient way to go.. the cases I get are like $105 after shipping

Those boxes of 500 are absolutely worth the price. The cost per plate is so low. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Biologix

Been really happy with them.. fast shipping, no damaged plates, and they come in sleeves of 10 instead of 20 (I find it convenient)

Those are also the plates I ordered. I echo that sentiment.

I don't have much to compare them to, but I've only broken 1 plate on accident... like a complete tard I dropped a grain jar on the most beautiful FP+ plate pin plate :uhoh:

Edit: might wanna ask Nektar61.. she uses them, and I'm sure she has more experience with other plates to compare them to

You rescue it?

Only takes a couple transfers usually.

You wouldn't believe the shit I see when I culture wild tissue. Hyper swarm motility....

Yeah.. I didn't have my hood on yet, so I grabbed some grafting tape and sealed it up really quickly.. waited 2 weeks to see how it looked.. had some areas that looked a but suspect, so I did 1 transfer and sent it to grain.

Idk if you saw my edit ^^

On the plus side.. it was a full grain jar and it dropped about 15 inches.. the plate cracked, but it wasn't "that bad".. it didn't smash or anything, just 1 thin crack.. so they're pretty durable from what I can tell..

When I got some pre poured plates, I broke one by squeezing too hard... they're definitely more durable than those plates were :lol:

Good good. I just don't like cracking them by handling them. Some are flimsy AF.

Yeah. I know what you mean.. I haven't had any issues, but I'm usually pretty careful and deliberate when doing agar work... SmellyHobbit has huge hands, and lifts weights, so if he hasn't broken any with his hulk grip, they're probably good :super:

Come to think of it.. I've dropped a plate on my wood floors, more than once, and never cracked a plate in the process 🙃

They’re definitely not so flimsy that a firm grip and a tight film wrap are going to hurt them.

Why do you need a couple 1000? I do just fine without nearly that many.

Bioprospecting. I culture a lot of organisms.

At any given time I have 1-2k plates wrapped and in use. Having a buffer for washing and pouring and wiggle room would be ideal.
