I have a friend named ronald reagan, and he has a little bottle of honey water, But he doent know when he should make sryinges out of it. It looks very cloudy, you could she a couple small chunks of rizo growth. I will post a few pics i a couples mins.
Ronny also wants to know if the syringe only gets the cloudly water but no part rizo growth in it; will it work?
Ps. keep this on the DL Nancy doesnt know.

Give it a good shake to break things up a bit (makes the water cloudy) then suck it up into a syringe and innoculate to your hearts content.

When preparing agar, you have a sugar concentation of 2%.
Since honey has 80% sugar, you should take 25g honey and 1 liter water.
Now double that, because you don?t want agar to be too nutritious.
So the maximum I?d do to is app. 1 part honey and 20 parts water.

when i prepare honey/water - malt/water innoculates, i use so little honey/malt that the water still looks clear.
Works well - those piccys look like the water is solid or something. Never tried that.

Ok so what happens when so much honey is used.?
I just though the more the merrier.
is it more open to contams?
cuz I used it to innocculate a rye bag and some grass seed waterwith it , the 12cc or so that was left was used to make more honey water. And the new hhoney stared to smell a bit so i hit it with 6cc of h2o2 yesterday. well ill see what happens.
