Can i use Agar plates to collect imo 1?
Wondering if the method would work to collect mycelium with Agar plates to then inoculate IMO rice with Agar? As i already grow mushrooms this would be a pretty convenient method without having to setup the box outside and probably would be able to consistently inoculate all of the rice pretty easily.

No, agar can not be used for collecting IMO. The reason is that the agar is selective to the microbes. Soil microbes are diverse and will not culture well. You will get microbes, but they are not the microbes you want.
