Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) Plates for Mushroom Cultivation (10 Pre-Poured Agar Plates)

any other company you order from is going to show up broken, Spilled Out, Wet, contaminated plates. everybody says you should never buy agar plates off Amazon because it's kind of self-explanatory that you need clean sterile durable non-compromised plates. but this company sends them perfect every time! the quality of the radar is amazing the stability of the gel it doesn't fall apart it doesn't leak, I've never had a problem and I order all the time from them after having problem after problem with every single other order I've ever gotten from someone else for agar plates! I wouldn't be able to do what I do if it wasn't for these guys with their plates because I can't make it myself and I need it to be available to me next day when I'm ready at the last minute!

Pretty darn clean plates so far. No contam issues on my first purchase. Will buy again.

all of them were contaminated with mold when they arrived

All 10 were sterile upon arrival and have shown to work as expected

I've ordered these twice so far for mycology purposes and they work well, low contamination rate, and the agar is nutritious. will buy again.

I've purchased these 6 times over the past few years and 4 of those times the plates arrived in perfect condition. My second order with them a few of the plates showed some condensation and became contaminated quickly after using them, but most were fine and I continued to purchase their product. This last purchase (this weekend) the entire bag was full of condensation, each plate has huge water droplets and the agar itself is visually off on many of the plates, like someone overcooked the media or poured it too early. They may be usable time will tell but for $20 anything less than what I've come to expect (clean, evenly poured/cooked and without condensation) is unacceptable.It's a bit of a gamble buying agar plates online, these served me well as a beginner and the convenience is undeniable but I won't be purchasing again after this order.

Bought these because my own needed more time for condensation to settle. Almost didn’t buy because of some negative reviews. Figured I’d just return it if there was an issue, nothing to lose. They came quick, agar solid and contam-free. Currently colonizing some cultures and they look great. Dishes are a bit cheap but micropore tape around after nocc’n up and they good to go. Would def buy again.

Easy to use would buy again
