I’m somewhat of a “lazy” person when it comes to making my own agar, in all reality it’s because I’m messy and I get frustrated. So I ordered the 10 agar plates to give them a try… when I say I have never NEVER!!! Witness agar being colonized at what can only be described as the speed of light! Usually there is a 10-14 day period so I thought “oh I have time to prep” boy was I wrong! I checked two days later to see that it started colonizing 4 days later the plate was fully colonized and very strong and healthy! It colonized so fast I had to rapidly move it to the fridge to slow the process down! I wasn’t even ready!
But honestly if you’re like me and are messy and don’t want to pour your agar everywhere trying to get it in Petri dishes do yourself a favor and order these!
