Definitely. Like faht said, it’s great for bacteria, but I’ll just add I have used them to clean up very moldy swabs too.

Got some swabs that were 11/10 filthy. Couldn’t germ them on agar and when I did it was all green...



DUDE I said I was sorry- but you're still bringing up that swab I gave you!

*Also maybe a little higher % of agar helps to immobilize bacteria.
0.2-0.6% more agar makes a huge difference.



This!
I started using stiffer agar just because it’s easier to deal with, using needles instead of scalpels.
As usual my sample sizes are too small to conclude with anything, but I rarely have issues with cleaning. When I do, I’ve resorted to sequestering.
Softer agar has been troublesome.

I’d say “hit me!”, but I think it’s time I get my shit together, get swabs and prints ready, and start giving back 😂

These are updates from my tub. I think it's been ~1 week now but honestly I'm not sure, might be two weeks lol. The issue was I had the holes in my monotub open and there was too much FAE. I misted it (possibly too much) a few days ago. I took the top off of to take these pictures. Could you guys tell me how this looks? Thank you guys!!

Looks great to me. I can't make out if you have pins or those are rhizomorphic growths extending towards the sky. Probably pins

This is still <100% colonized right? I should let it continue to colonize before casing it?

Cross-post from Agar Envy thread, maybe someone here can help?

Quote:
Quick question, I've cloned a Natalensis fruit to water agar (7g / 500ml as shown here)

I've taken small samples from the stem and the cap, but while the stem sample seems to be coming along as expected, the cap only has a very thin halo around the tissue.

Here's the stem sample:


and here's the cap sample:


Any insight into why the cap sample is behaving like this, has it sunk inside the water agar? Is that white halo usable to transfer to LME agar, or should I just stick with the sample from the stem? Would it make any difference?

Thank you!

I would  work with the stem sample as it's obviously more aggressive and more robust.
maybe keep the other around for observation.

If it's cubensis, you don't need to case it. I wouldn't touch it, it's looking good

If one places a jar on it's side, is the lid then (more) prone to get removed from the jar?

Normally I have my jars always standing up, but yesterday (due to lack of space) I placed one jar on it's side, and after the PC cycle, I found the lid removed from the jar, and some grains on lots of places. It must have been blown or trembled off. There aren't many grooves on these lids. But I wonder whether it is kind of normal to happen or was this an ANAMOLY?

:inbread:

edit: +PS: I can't remember a lid have ever been blown off from a standing jar during PC cycle. (and I do remember lids being blown off from cans when I was younger and experimenting with fireworks and carbide, but that's a total different story and not to be repeated).

How do you use syringes instead of scalpels? Also I literally didn't know charcoal was bad to use for agar Knight. I received a petri dish and transfered to charcoal plates should I be worried?

Activated charcoal doesn’t affect growth

If you fill a syringe with distilled water, sterilize it with your agar wrapped in a foil package and then attach a needle. You can poke a plate and shoot the transfer into another dish or lc. Look up Josex poke method

Was it Fahtster that I saw had also bent the tip of a needle over to create a tiny hook? I really like that idea too!
