  • Hey Myco Family! In this video we go over some basics of Agar work, transferring / sectoring off the healthiest growth on your plates to continue on your cultures. These basic principles can be applied to cleaning up your cultures in the case of bacterias or contamination.

I watch you pgt mycophilia, mycodawgs and also Garry from fungi perfect...you guys have this down to a science, that's exactly where I want myself in the next couple years. Plus I'm teaching my kids homesteading :) anyways thank you for taking the time to teach us students 😊

    This was a great video compared to others I've seen. We need various plates that contain contamination and show us how to see what's contamination and what's not. Some are easy to spot if it starts growing from the edge of the lid, but I have some plates that are sus and it's growing out with the mycelium and hard to tell if it's contamination or just a weak section of mycelium. I yet have to find a video that shows that specifically!

I've seen people setting the temperature to 75-76F for incubation, considering that there is a rise of temperature inside the cake (although its an agar plate). Whats your opinion about that?

      You only need to transfer until you have no visible contamination. Sometimes it only takes one transfer to save or clean up a culture.

    Open up the healthy agar inside an enclosed air box that's with in this sealed closest so i can do this transfer without contamination being a factor (hopefully) and on some real shit man, this phase really is the most tedious and fucking sweaty. 😵
