Kizzle's photo of the sneaky bacteria saved my ass on more than a few occasions since I saw his example

Fairly certain these are all bacteria, except the couple obvious molds on that multi plate...

Maybe this will help a little more, if you look at the quart jar here, if you notice you'll see its got that thick, creamy cottage cheese type look that comes from bacterial infection. Oddly enough this jar did not smell off at all.

I only have this one picture of clean spawn (gallon jars) to compare to right now, and its still not the best photo that was my first go with gallons and the GE hole in the lid was too small.
But you can see the difference yes?

Yea I know, this thread is a couple years old I still don't have a supporter account yet (I know) so I probably deleted them some time in the last couple years to make room for more pics
My fault

Also in those first two jars the spikes of mycelium spread throughout are a sign of bacteria... Myc can look rhizomorphic but it will still remain individual strands when you look at it closely... Those right there are all fused into single chunks... The plates that have those random tufts of myc that are raised up from the rest are also signs of bacteria as far as I can figure.

See how thick and white the myc looks? Sometimes it even gets a cottage cheese look. It will look solid like a block sometimes too.
This photo below is another good example


This is the only photo of clean spawn I have at the sec but you can see the difference.

:whathesaid:
Those thick white spikes of mycelium are a give away... In clean spawn the myc will be a bunch of individual stands when you look close... Those look like they have hair gel on them...

2 of the plates were from a sloppy pour I guess, never poured a bad plate before :shrug:

Anyways a lot of folks ask me what bacteria look like on agar. So I figured I start a thread where people can put up photos of bacteria in plates and jars, mold colonies etc

What to look for

:thumbup:




your pictures are broken. :frown:
