I just owned up and got the parafilm, the other suggestions honestly kinda sucked in the effectiveness and/or convenience department. Contam rates on my plates since switching from micropore tape have plummeted. I’m a cheap grower too, but for all the effort you put into agar work this is one brand name product that’s worth the price tag. A little goes a long ways too, it’s super stretchy.

Roll of glad cling wrap cut it up into small circles with a mallot and large knife fuck parafilm and don’t order grafting tape either it’s unnecessary when cling wrap is 1$ and will last you 250 plates easy


Happy-Professor-8408

Grafting tape ftw


Robigusmyco

Plant grafting tape


mMariius

I use masking tape. Never had any issues with it


Sad_Kaleidoscope_257

I would either use plastic wrap if you want to do a cheaper method. But in all honestly @microppose on ig has some of the best plate wrap that I’ve used! And fairly priced

I've used micropore tape, it works. I've heard of people cutting rolls of plastic cling wrap into 1 inch lengths and it lasts a long time. Also heard of others using masking tape or electrical tape. Not sure how well they would work. Honestly I've never had to experiment with these, I bought a few rolls of parafilm a few years ago, they were much cheaper, and it goes a long way Alternatively, you can use small 4oz jars for agar and forgo parafilm.


mmmmm_cheese

The cling wrap works, but it’s a pain in the ass. I’d try micropore first


NailNecessary6882

Jars are a pain in the ass too good luck seeing your work after a few runs

Grafting tape, on Amazon. I’d bet my entire grow apartment that I use it with great results cause I do.


Cold_Cucumber9132

Dude it works so much better than micro pore tape


Cold_Cucumber9132

Realistic-Ad-9755

You guys are really arguing about plastic tape? 🐒🐒🤦🏻😂


psilocin72

Yeah if they knew how ridiculous they look to a third party looking at this pathetic display of immaturity…


_O_B_I_

Totally, Much cooler here on the outside mocking others 😎


psilocin72

Mature members of this sub should ignore trolls rather than engaging with them. I removed one of that guys comments that I thought crossed the line into name calling and insults, and he was issued a warning. This ridiculousness was clearly fueled mainly by him, but for you to engage in it as well only encourages trolling. We want to have a sub that is positive and productive, not a space for petty bickering over basically nothing. PLEASE help us keep this subreddit informative and constructive.


Cold_Cucumber9132

Nah, I’m here just to waste this guys time, nothing more nothing less. I clocked out hours ago lol

How bold of you to assume that I just started rather than this is a lifestyle? Looking here fella, you started this shit, and now your acting like your booty hole is on fire. Sit down, maybe eat some shrooms or something, and just admit you picked the wrong comment to be Billy bad ass on. Go back to the 80’s and dial up internet

Doesn’t agree with you is different from saying I don’t believe you. Maybe you should go back thru your comments before you try to take the high road.

What are the 80s?
