Thanks. Will add some vermiculite to them.

I also have 2 bags with side cuts: what you think chances are on that?

Are these plates still good to use?

I just got done pouring some agar and I noticed what I think is pieces of light malt extract on the bottom of the plates. Some of the light malt extract I used was all rocked up and I'm guessing it didn't fully dissolve. I used LMEA and pressure cooked it for 45 minutes at 15 PSI.

I just had that happen with an agar batch too, you can still use them.

45 was probably a bit too long but yeah should be alright, just take note of the growth and that it may be correlated to that(unlikely though)

How long do you recommend to PC agar for?

To be fair I’ve also done my agar for 45 min. Not because I’m afraid, but because I read it from here - Why Agar?. Though now that I’m doublechecking the table there, it says 40 for 500ml.

Do yourself a favor... when in doubt LITFA.
and find something else to occupy your mind while you wait.
Recommend reading HHG start to finish (again?). Not trying to say you don't know what you're doing - it's that you'll realize that you need to Trust the Process, and yourself.

This is pretty quick and it shows what you’re doing. But on an enormous fruit. I wanted to see somebody struggle.

No different than usual, even if there's less dissolved nutrients it should still be enough.

Good advice!

Hey mate, just a quick question. I have a few grain bags that were inoculated all at the same time but I have 3 that are slow af! I’ve broken them up once to spread the mycelium throughout the bag. They are growing but are only at like 50%
My questions is, am I able to break the bags up a 2nd or 3rd time to in courage mycelium growth or are these bags already fighting contam? Or do I need to rehydrate the grain?

If they're growing slower than the rest it's possible that they're fighting a contam. If I break mine up it's usually once they are at 30%, sometimes at 100% if I'm worried about it, if it doesn't bounce back within like 2 days, that's usually a telltale sign that it's not worth spawning because of how bad the contam is.

Every time you break and shake them, you're also spreading any contamination that might be present, possibly giving it an edge over the mycelium.

Absolutely do not "rehydrate the grain." That's near impossible to do without introducing some chance of contamination. You need to reach proper grain hydration before you PC your grains.

I tried using the search, and I was disappointed that the first and most discussed result had all of the videos set to private.

I asked that it would be archived and removed from search results because I was a little miffed.

I would like to apologize for resurrecting such an old ass thread just to ask that it would be immediately killed.

I kind of a perfectionist and the plates are bothering the fuck out of me lol. Even thinking of pouring more plates, but if these plates would work I'm not gonna waste my time.

I recently got a new pressure cooker, a Presto 23 Qt and it was my first time using it for agar. My old PC was a cheap one from China that was defective af. The pressure gauge wasn't working for example and I always had to just guess and hope it was on 15 PSI but I actually never had any problems with it lol. Idk if it was the way I PC'd the agar or if my LME is getting old because it is all rocked up and I live in a humid environment.

I'd bet on the malt extract not fully dissolving. I always pressure cook my agar media for 45 minutes, sometimes longer if I'm not paying attention. If I have sediment it's because I used nutritional yeast and that shit never quite dissolves for me even when it's finely powdered first.

Do you boil and shake your bottles or jars before pressure cooking? It's not really required, but I find it makes it easier to ensure the malt sugar is dissolved, and getting the agar melted and uniformly distributed means it comes out of the PC nice and uniform instead of in two layers (higher concentration of agar on the bottom). I just put all the ingredients in cold and microwave with the lid very loose until it starts to boil.
