if it's premixed MEA (malt extract agar) a wisk helps tremendously. I usually get it to a simmer and dump half in and wisk it around until it disolves, then dump the other half in and do the same thing. MEA can be kind of tricky to get to dissolve IME

Spores can take quite some time to germinate. 1 Week isn't much.

i'mm seeing satellite colonies now though from my pe swab plates, should i just toss those? that leaves me down to my cambodians? starting to think agar just isn't' for me lol, i never had issues when i used spore syringes...i've had luck putting fruits to agar but not once in a year have i had any good success starting from spores on agar, rarely get anything to germinate...maybe i should switch to petris

You throw in the towel when the plate contams, or dries out.

well my plates are contaminating, I could have worded that better but I'm still asking what you should do when you get sporulating mold before your spores germinate?
