Should I even try.......petri dishes

I had a little left over Mex A and I had petri dishes on hand.
I know that I did it wrong but I was a mad rush to get it done before work. I would not do it like that again.
But now that it's done, should I try to sector it and then bag it,
Or take some nice pics and toss it.

I don't think it's contam...it looks like the Mex in the books,
But the sporadic growth,
I did not do a few things that I should have like scaring it....
Since the growth is so little I did not know if it would be worth it..

Well I notice that I don't have and inoculation loops or anything to make the transfer.
So I assume that I can use almost anything that can be sterilized and flamed.
Like dental tools from a hardware store or any metal tool that would be appropriate size and material.

Use a scalpel or exacto knife and take a piece of mycelium no larger than a grain of rice. This gives you the least chance of transferring contaminants. RR

Just rake the knife tip across the top of the mycelium to get a small piece. Just enough on the tip of the knife you can see to transfer to a new dish.
