culturing phyto questions

I just started my first cultures of phytoplankton.
I've bought the supplies from Florida Aqua Farms and am using 2 liter bottles to culture in. I noticed that they have a set up that is built from PVC in which they use plastic bags to culture the phyto.
Has anyone tried using plastic bags?
From the contamination standpoint, this seems the way to go. Use a bag once to culture, then recycle.

Hmmmm... sorry no one caught this thread. Unfortunately, I use 2 liter bottles. Try to keep 'em in rotation. Periodically, empty one and bleach it, then unchlorinate, and put back into rotation.
Did you try the plastic bags??? If so, how's it going??? Pics???
