My first attempt at flasking didn't go so well. I grew mold of all colors (not my goal). So while looking for agar online I found someone selling this kit. I realize this is more for experiments but what do you think? The media is pre autoclaved and all you have to do is microwave the solution and pour it in a petri dish.
