This might not work, I forget how they got the bacteria to grow in the petri when we did it in school, but I'll figure it out.

What could go wrong? *Was the last thing he said before the bacteria exploded*

I imagine that will be the least of your concerns.
I'm more concerned with you accidentally brewing up some new version of anthrax that only eats cannabis.
...
Don't add the ostrich milk...
 
So you're afraid of me inventing bacteria?? That's just kinda stupid. I have not presented anything that would even allow me to do that (people ARE doing it though).

Among other things, yes.
You're like a portal for Loki; bizarre, negative consequences result from your dabbling with the inner workings of the cosmos.

Loki was not a negative. He was a trickster. Negative depends on perspective, and Loki was good for plenty of people. Or are you just using the modern movie Loki...?

He was basically the clown god of the time.

I'm talking about the old school Loki (what movie are you talking about?).
Yes, he was the trickster. Creating problems so he could offer solutions and look "smart".
My point being, your experiments seem to have a tendency to drift into chaos.
Perhaps Pandora's Box is a more fitting analogy for your experiments.
At least you're not trying to "tickle the dragon's tail". :lol:

I like the pandoras box comparison better. I don't do this to try to look smart. I just want to see the future.

True story...I took a few Bacteriology classes in college. One day in lab we were given 8 sterile petries (with media) and 8 sterile swabs; turned loose and told to randomly sample anything and place around the campus. One of my samples was drinking fountain by the gym....we cultured our samples, identified what grew, etc. I found anthrax on that drinking fountain

You've got to be kidding me! :shock:
What happened when you cultured it? Did the Army come running in? :lol:

Nah, this was 1976. We students freaked, the Prof says relax just maintain sterile security. The point of the exercise was to show us that all types of bacteria existed everyplace. The cool thing was disposal: they had a kiln/crematorium.....stacked in all the petries, closed it. Fired it up and 4 hrs later, nothing was there...nada

We did the same thing in highschool and found E. Coli under the toilet. That's why I am doing this, I could find ANYTHING. And I am getting books for classification, so I will know what it all is. And I just have to test them with seeds and plants. If I can find a bacteria that can cause germination without hardly any water, we could start a relationship between MJ and bacteria like the sanguaro cactus has. If a sanguaro cactus seed doesn't find any nutrients, it will be germinated by bacteria that can naturally be found on them.

We could raise the germination rate for MJ, indoor and outdoor... I just gave myself the idea of buying cactus seeds and culturing the bacteria :)
