First agar attempt, weak myc or contam?
    #21842021 - 06/22/15 03:11 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

Hey y'all,

First time poster, long time lurker.  I recently began doing some agar work to expand my collection from store bought specimens.  I've read that the growth from the store shrooms is going to be pretty slow due to many G2G transfers/senescence, but I thought it'd be good practice.



This is one of my shimeji plates, inoculated about 10 days ago in a SAB.  The growth has been consistent and steady for the last week and a half and is radiating outwards from the exact point where I dropped the clone tissue.  Malt Extract Agar, in case that makes a difference, and flame sterilized scalpel after each transfer.  I put the plate in a fresh ziplock as well.

What do you guys think?  Does this look like contamination? 

Looks like cobweb to me, but I don't know for sure.

Thanks in advance!

That looks absolutely perfect to me. I would put it in the fridge now, before it reaches the edge of the plate. :thumbup:
