Discovery NotesThe soil was collected on 8/23/24 at 5:21 PM. The sample was collected in Alycion Park in Pitman, NJ, on the dead end of Lake Avenue, 3 feet from the lake edge in between the bushes and trees.

The soil was dry and rocky. The weather was 81 degrees F and the weather was sunny. The soil was extracted from 33.02 cm down.
Naming NotesWhen plating the phage, due to the fact that it may be lytic it sometimes didn't show up after plating, making it "stubborn". This reminded me of my dog who was also stubborn so I named it after him.
