Hi Everyone!

I was given some Physarum by a researcher at university, it was growing wonderfully.

Firstyl, 2 days ago I removed it from its original Petri dish using a sterilised scalpel blade (scraped along the top of the agar) and re-homed it into 2 separate Petri dishes now using paper towel as a base. to cut the story short, the physarum doesn't seem too happy in its new environment and it inst growing as it was on the agar. I keep it in my bedroom, in a shoebox and constantly mist with water to keep moist, so any ideas?

Secondly, I could really do with some Physarum to conduct some experiments this weekend, as the stuff I had obviously isn't doing great. I know it is a long shot, but if anyone is able to get some to me tomorrow or Saturday I'd be eternally grateful! I'm in Bristol.

Cheers!

Luke

Hi Luke, message me your address and I can pop a culture plate in the post tomorrow, but you won't get it until Monday at the earliest. Best, Heather
