yep, I'm still not sure what it is, i'll have to wait until it colonizes everthing and see if it fruits

and myconin, sorry ;-)
Yeah so I still believe it is tomentose, do you still think it is what people call cobweb mold guys?

I believe it looks sickly. Sorry that's about all I can tell you. Normally healthy mycelium is opaque and yours is pretty wispy and translucent.

looks fine to me actually.
I see no cobweb type mold. that's more rhizomorphic than tomentose, when mycelium is traveling over unpacked straw like that it almost has to be rhizomorphic in morphology to colonize. tomentose or rhizomorphic make really no difference the mycelium will do whichever it pleases depending on the substrate. as long as a culture is capable of having rhizomorphic growth your fine, just like as long as a culture isn't sterile and makes mushrooms. cars have a 1st gear and a 2nd gear regardless of which gear you're in the car still has the same performance and may be in 2nd gear at some points and first at others. the only problem comes when you lose second gear.
it's growing funny on that straw because it's not packed enough which it's surprisingly is colonizing somehow and the moisture is off too but other than that I really only see cube mycelium in there. no point in toss yet.

I have to admit that's true.. But hey, i'll start agar soon..
By the way, I was wondering: is there any risk of breaking a petri dish if it is closed when the PC cools down?

I'd listen to bod. He has lots of straw experience.

maybe 5 if you count one round of 4 jars and the tub I made 
petri dishes are not air tight so no, but unless you have a glass dish that's autoclave safe it shouldn't be in the PC at all.

@bodhisatta: yeah i find it so cool (it is the first time i the mycelium propagating, even if it is more a Tata than a Mustang, the first time you see a car, it's.... omg :-)
and I figured out also it's doing what it's doing to bridge all the gaps in the substrate, so smart these thing 
how do you see about the moisture?

More than me lol. I'd be the guy to ask anything manure related. I got lots of straw and hay too.. just need to do more reading before actually trying any.

I bought glass petri dish, but not pyrex, 1 bucks each on a chemsit supply shop. Chances it's not autoclavable? Then there is no way to proper sterilize them?

hay is for horses, straw is for mushrooms.
it looks on the dry side for straw but idk what that would do. grains on the dry side still work just fine. I thought my straw was on the wet side but it turned out fine. beats me, cubes are hardy survivors.
those dishes are probably flint glass, like all glass they'll take the heat but they're not tempered so they get weaker with time as they cool and heat up they temper and anneal themselves into more fragile crystalline structure eventually they'll fail and you'll find a cracked one when you take it out. they're also in general a lot more fragile. but it should work just fine for now,
