Discovery NotesI found my bacteria soil in the ground by a tree stump. The soil was pretty dry but did have some damp parts of it as well. It was humid outside and I went out in the early morning to find it, around 9:30 am. The depth of the sample in the ground was around 2 inches deep and it was 71 degrees outside.
Naming NotesI picked the name Blessing for my phage because I found the soil on church or holy grounds. I just felt that it would fit the soil the best.

Plaque NotesIn the beginning, I typically found a variety of phage morphologies. Although, as I did further testing, I found that the plaque was around 1/3 of an inch in size and wasn't too big compared to other findings in earlier procedures.
