Agar to grain transfer in a still air box (SAB)

[@McDermonator]

Great videos man, clear and concise. My only suggestion for a video like this though is that it seems a bit incomplete. How are you sterilizing the scalpel? Do you sterilize between each transfer? Are you wearing gloves? I'd love to see your full process

Few people engaged in this hobby are running IR units, they're a bit different than flame sterilization; but yes, flame sterilize until red hot, and cool in the receiving dish. The intention of this video was to show how and where to place dishes in relation to receiving jars, it was not intended to be comprehensive.

what's stopping me from dumping the whole plate into the jar? wouldn't i get faster grain colonization?

Nothing stopping you, but it's a bit of a waste when one takes culture expansion into consideration.
