Agar Mycelium Question
    #19272482 - 12/13/13 09:12 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

So I found these pictures of transferred agar plates, the quality are very low. I believe the large black is from a spore syringe. The other areas became dark on their own. Is this normal growth or a contaminant.

I've also found two pictures of 2 day old mycelium growth, is this normal growth or is it strange? Majority of pictures i find the mycelium spreads out into a circle.

Ah I figured since spore syringe was used the spread was from the liquid spreading on the agar.

well at least you never used the syringe on grain jars or anything, do you see any good myc growth? some of those spots look clean which is the beauty of agar in the first place right!

These plates were made from small shavings of what i thought was the clean myc from other plates that had obvious contam growth.
