| I want to buy a specific rooting hormone that comes in liquid form. You're supposed to dilute it but when I dilute it, I want to turn it into gel. I should probably use agar, right? But what kind? Wouldn't food gelatin make it moldy? |

| Food gelatin may be quick to mold except under the most exacting laboratory conditions. |

| Yeah, I'm not very stringent with gardening. That's why I said I didn't think food gelatin would be a good idea. |

| Do you need to keep it in that gel form for a long time? Agar agar is also food, so it is likely going to mold as well. |
