🧪 How to Use & Storage

Store your agar plate in a cool, dark place (4–8 °C ideal) until you're ready to work with it. Use sterile technique to transfer mycelium wedges to fresh agar plates, grain jars, or other sterile substrates. Early-stage plates offer the cleanest, most vigorous tissue for cloning and expansion. Work in front of a laminar flow hood or still-air box to maintain culture purity. Agar plates remain viable for several weeks when refrigerated; for long-term storage, consider transferring to agar slants.
