Thanks :) we grew the five strains seperately in LB kan 100, then mixed them. The students got an eppendorf with this mix and streaked on LB kan plates with metal loops. Incubated at 28, 2 days and kept the plates in the fridge 5 days. Keeping them cold gives them time to produce lots of pigment :)

From our teaching lab today —> importance of streaking :)
