How/when to merge replicates

I'm going to apologize, but I am going to assume to put these samples into one QIIME artifact (.qza) file?

Can I see how the files look as fastq? You want to import multiple files that were Pyrosequencing -> Fastq -> QIIME2 artifact?

Once you made the fastq files it looks like you should do what this user did:

  1. gzip the entire fastq folder into a fastq.gz
  2. import it using a manifest method
