Plate Shelf Life and Storage
The optimal shelf life for plates is 30-45 days. Order plates as needed, as they cannot be stored indefinitely, even in their original packaging. While most plates can last for months, their ideal shelf life is 30 days.
Usage and Contamination
Plates may remain usable beyond 30 days if uncontaminated. If contamination occurs in one plate, it doesn’t affect others in the pack. Discard contaminated plates and use the rest as normal.
Long-term Storage
Extended storage may cause plates to lose moisture, becoming stiff and papery. Use plates only if they remain gelatinous and uncontaminated. Discard any that become stiff or papery, as they can no longer support organism growth.
Refund Policy
For damaged or contaminated plates upon delivery:
โขโ โ Contact us within 30 days of the ORDER date
โขโ โ Provide photos for refund requests
โขโ โ No replacements are offered; only refunds
Storage Guidelines
Before inoculation:
โขโ โ Store in a cool, dry place (e.g., cupboard)
โขโ โ Avoid refrigeration to prevent condensation
โขโ โ Place upside down to minimize condensation
After colonization:
โขโ โ Refrigerate when at least 60% colonized
โขโ โ Label (date and species) and put in zip-lock bags for storage
โขโ โ It is best to keep it in the vegetable compartment of the fridge
Remember: The packaging sleeve is not a sterile seal. Proper storage is crucial for maintaining plate quality.
