I'm not sure but since you are placing a cell suspension on a microscopic slide, you will just have to let it air-dry. This will lead to the suspension to dry, thus allowing it be gently heated to allow it to stick to the slide.

What is the value of petri plates in microbiology?

It gives microbiologists a way to grow bacteria on a solid medium. This is important if you want to be able to obtain a pure culture, without a solid medium to grow bacteria it would be nearly impossible. On a solid media a single colony can be isolated and used to innoculate a further plate or broth culture. All the bacteria present in a colony should be decendents of a single organism and so be genetically identical. To obtain a pure culture in liquid media, you would have to do numerous serial dilutions which is very labor intensive compared to streaking a solid medium. Even after many serial dilutions there would be no way to ensure a pure culture.

Why would endospores not be present in a 12 hour batch culture but would be present in 14 day batch culture?

Endospores only form under unfavorable conditions that threaten the survival of the bacteria (and only some bacteria are capable of producing endospores). Also, the process of endospore formation requires 8-10 hours. Assumably, the 12 hour culture would still have an abundant supply of nutrients and therefore would not require the production of endospores to survive; the 14 day culture would have a much higher number of organisms which had been using up the supply of nutrients, therefore creating unfavorable conditions and requiring the formation of endospores for survival.
