'''Isolating Bacteria from Kombucha'''


Here is list of ingredients to prepare 500 ml of liquid ''Gluconcetobacter'' medium
Glucose - 10 g
<br />Peptone - 2.5 g
<br />Yeast extract - 2.5 g
<br />Na2HPO4 - 1.35g
<br />Citric acid - 0.75 g
<br />Distilled or tap water  - 500 ml
<br />Agar - 7.5 g
However, in this case, I needed just 100 ml, so everything was divided by 5.
I dissolved 2 ml of Kombucha and 8 ml of distilled water, then smeared one drop of that solution onto the first slot. The others' solutions were dissolved in 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32 ratio respectively.

'''Growing Physarum polycephalum (2nd attempt)'''
I failed growing slime mold at my 1st attempt, so I tried once again with three dishes (just in case!), but this time I kept all of them inside the cabinet in the lab. I've learnt form my 1st attempt that my room is not a suitable environment for growing slime mold.
'''Growing Bacteria from Chalk'''
I had Gluconcetobacter left, so I used that medium for growing bacteria from chalk. I expect to have some artworks form it, using a telescope camera.
