Never seen this before, it looks like mold but I have no idea if it is or not.

I look at my iffy plates with a jewlers loop now...just remembered I had one, so I don't have to bust out the scope..If I can see into my plates well enough... And that looks like mold to me, or something riding along with mycelium...

If they look iffy I won't use them, that plate for sure got flagged. Its not worth it in my opinion to ruin 3 or 4 jars of oats over an iffy plate. Mainly cuz I absolutely hate preparing grain so when I lose jars cuz of contamination it kills me, lol.

MH, looks like penicillin... did you drop/slide the wedge initially?
Mr. Craggles, I don't see any cobweb, and in fact, is highly unlikely to appear in a tub: WAY too much FAE... cobweb is rare in a jar, and almost unheard of in a tub... it will absolutely devour a jar in 1-2 days... the puffy look to your culture is likely due to excess moisture, and perhaps a bit of bacteria IMO, but it's mycelium, and I don't see anything that says mold of any sort otherwise...

Well got my cherry popped for grain jars, have had bacteria but not this jive in a jar. 
Shame, was a nice looking culture ruined by a rouge spore with my careless hands.

I've known this jar was done for a while ago. I g2g it while the grains we're wetter than I thought. The jar stalled almost immediately. This was my rusty white master. I went back to agar and have a new jar now, but I thought I'd see what colors it'll produce.

Got something going on in this PE tub. Maybe just metabolites.

whoknowsyouknows, i had the same happen to a bin of malabar a couple months back. whole thing started to stink of an old sweaty shoe. i decided to let it go and see what happens. i ended up with a giant mutant blob mass about 2 to 3 inches thick across the entire cake. quite difficult to harvest but it was by far the most potent mass of mushrooms gram for gram that i've ever had. not saying the same thing will happen to you but i guess my point is, you never know
