Agar-What happens if I do nothing?
    #22324388 - 10/02/15 03:40 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

I have an agar plate that is growing very well with mycelium. The one mold spot, ended up being swallowed by mycelium and never spreading.

What happens if I just leave it to fully colonize the agar?

Here are pics...the dark spot seen from the underside is the mold. It spread to that little spot, and then the mycelium grew around and eventually over it



This was my first agar attempt, and as such the agar cooled unevenly. So its thick on one side and thin on the other. My second round of making agar went perfect. I just need to transfer to it now.

Ive got three clean plates ready to go.

Isn't that why you take a transfer, let it grow, and transfer again? To get rid of contaminants?

I cant find the thread again, but I saw a pic of an agar cup with fruits inside.

Will this happen with mine? ( I don't get good responses in this part of the shroomery..so I guess I will find out alone)

Maybe someone out there will actually care.

As of right now, I am letting this one agar cup just go, to see what happens.

where do u get good answers then?  mush cult is poppin compared to other sub forums….

its hard to tell if u are asking a question or just posting pictures of what is happening to ur plate, no offence.

leave it be.  if its clean it will pin.  it its heavily contaminated, it won't.  if its slightly contaminated, it might.
