Would it be a good idea to...

Heres whats going on, I have the makings for PDYA, everything except petri dishes. But I do have Quart mason jars, lots and lots of them. I have heard of using jars with agar, but those were half pints.
If I fill the jars near the top, so I dont have to reach to far in for the mycellium would that work alright?
Or do I need to buy smaller jars?

I dont know much about much but wouldnt that be a large waste of agar? Sounds like it would work

Major waste of agar, but I blew my budget, and need to work with the resourses at hand.

ok i dont have any personal experience with agar but i feel i have a grip on things....
ok so agar is a tool best used for isolations, wich would be pretty hard
to do in pint jars let alone quart jars. plus when working with agar one tends to have alot
of cultures going at the same time. quart jars are going to take up alot of room!!
if your looking to clone your best bet would be to clone to an lc. once you get it going
sterile technique for innoc your jars will but much easier than agar

Nah man, I'm lookin' to start spores from print, to select the most rhizmorphic chunks of mycellium, then inoculate quarts of rye.

Wal-Mart has small mason jars that are half a half pint in packs of four for like 4 bucks. Panhandle if you have too
