Here's a picture of a jar from a couple of weeks ago. Took some time to find it. Pretty sure it was some yeast, had a nasty round of WBS, like 100% popped grain lol :shrug:

This one's on purpose. I opened it in open air for like 2 seconds and closed it up. Waited 4 days and bam:


God damn dactylium (commonly known as cobweb). At least it was only one tub:

This is my worst contam. Trich is a close 2nd.

Also great thread az :smile: I love my contams, so.. :threadmonitor:

:deathstar:

Contamination blasted my whole lab about four months ago.  My contamination issues were a little more circumstantial than fucking up my sterile technique, though.  One day in the middle of March I was kicked/locked out of my lab abruptly when the weather started to get warmer so I was never allowed to be around to dial in the temperature of that lab and the lab spent a couple of months reaching beyond 100F a day,  Needless to say all the healthy mushroom mycelium in the lab got fried and all kinds of bacteria and mold set in and took over.

The smell of funk that emanated from that house towards the time that I was finally able to move all my equipment out made me laugh and cry at the same time.  Made me cry that all that hard work had gone down the drain.  Made me laugh because the abrupt kicking me out of the lab created horrible air quality for the person who went all bipolar on me for a few months. 

All that is behind me now.  I am in a new lab with someone I really get along with and can trust.  The lab is temperature controlled and in a much more suitable location with in the residence.  The only time I have seen contams since being in the new lab is when grain dropping agar cultures from spore without making a transfer first lol.  What can I say, I was in a hurry to get shit rolling again.  The iso that I have been working with though is having a 100% success rate due to beginning with a clean known and trusted clean culture and my sterile technique being virtually bullet proof when in front of that flowhood.

I couldn't find a definitive answer for what crap looks like when it first begins...because so much of it looks like myc to me, so I let some contaminated plates grow until I had a good variety (FML didn't take long) then transfered them to this dish to watch them grow...the two that are coming from the edge of the dish are purely accidental...I opened it very frequently to look so idk...pretty neat though, in a disgusting way.
