I see the experiment was run with agar. Since mesosilver was effective, I am assuming that the test temperature of 35 degrees was sufficient to keep the agar liquid during the test.

I believe the difference may be that you did your test in a broth (liquified agar due to temperature), and he did his in a gel. If so the results of both are quite predictable. Do you know if I am correct on this?
