D'oh!

So it finally happened to me. 😛

I shot off a roll of trix @ 1200 or so, to give diafine another shot.

Well.. Bath A just about finished up, and instead of pouring it back into A, I took the top off my Patterson tank. I swished around the liquid, poured it into A's vial, covered the tank up, and poured B in.

After the first set of agitation on B, I realized what I did.

D'OH!

I'm just gonna finish it up, see what happens *shrug*

if you've done this before then smack the back of your head!

First time! Still haven't poured solution A into B yet.. figger that'll happen soon 🙄 -- last week, however, I bumped my bottle for A over and half of it went right down the sink.

i wish i could tell ya that it gets better or feels less dumb after the first but nah, not for me anyway.
i find that once you have a routine in place it does happen less.

last time out i had 2 small tanks going at the same time. when the developer was done in tank 1 i poured it into tank 2 and so on down the line. at one point i couldn't remember which was tank 1. after a moment of panic i just took my best guess and thankfully was right.
this is after about 30+ years of doing this.

Hahahah, that's great and good luck for you. I'm into this a little more than 6 months now. I typically take the top off after fixer and run the first 10 seconds of the wash, but for some reason I must have thought I fixing. When I was about 8, I just finished up swim practice, and had to go home early. All the other kids were in the jacuzzi warming up, so I was on the pool deck. Always put on the parka, grab my stuff, go to the car, mom drives me home, I shower, etc. That time, however, I took my speedos off and started throwing them up in the air and playing catch. I'm not quite sure why... 😛 ... all I can remember is mom rushing over to me and wrapping me up in the parka. Looks like I skipped a step 😀
