I've never tried compost...well I have a stack of tires in the back that I dump grass clippings into but it's not a deliberate composting effort to make mushrooms.

-Saran Wrap (cut off 1 inch from the end of a roll)instead of Parafilm for sealing petridishes and test tubes.


Isn't the point of using parafilm is that it is a microweave bandage that allows CO2 to escape and oygen into the culture...but not the contams because it is microweave?! I would think sealing a tube completely off will slowly sufficate an attampt to store a culture.
