Mold or Mycelium!
    #16831539 - 09/11/12 08:40 PM (12 years, 4 months ago)

So I figured I'd give my hands a shot on isolating some strains on agar.

I inoculated these petri dishes on the 29th of August with roughly one drop from a multi-spore syringe, strain Blue Meanie cubes.

So the big question is, is this mold, or mycelium? If it is mycelium where would recommend me to take transfers from?

PLATE

#1

#2  

#3

#4
That last pic of plate #4 is from the back/agar side.

Peace and thanks a lot!

Number 4 could be mold, not sure but those dark areas don't look good, number 3 looks great! and number 1 and 2 do as well, but I've never seen that circle in the middle before maybe just different growth :smile:

#1 looks good, #2 looks good in the middle but has a contam on the side, #3 is good, and #4 looks pretty bad all around.

2 and 4 have mold on them.  #1 and 3 looks good though, I would isolate sectors from the rhizomophic side (the darker white).  You also need to remove the vendor from your post (see rule #3).

4 is all mold, 2 has mold in it, 1 looks weird. I'd go with 3, seems to be healthy mycelium.

take transfers from the top of the growth in pic 1, anywhere from the growth that isn't the one on bottom left in pic 2, anywhere from number 3, and/or nowhere from 4.

as mentioned above me though, it'd be simplest to just go with number 3.  it's clearly your best contender.

:bender:

Alright thanks alot guys!

I'm gonna go ahead and transfer from number 1 and 3 and toss out the other two since i got two uncontaminated plates of healthy mycelium and I don't necessarily need that other one.

PS. Thanks for the heads up Deathryder.

Wish me luck. :peace:
