im not saying he has bacteria. if he does bacteria can be characterized by wet glossy grains and stalled mycellium growth.

IMO this one is a tough call. Moisture content is off. Doesn't look bacterial to me...but I have a shit eye for that compared to some. Weak myc, bad genetics?

Ok, I'm freaking out a little bit here as I must have some kind of full blown contamination in my place. I was about to do some agar transfers so I got out a shoebox that I've stored some clean pasty plates in. Got them out and pulled off the foil from the lids. Under one of the peices of foil was this white powdery substance that kind of just turned into dust when I accidentally touched it. I realized quickly that I had an issue on my hands and tried to isolate it and get it outside. This was growing on the outside of a pasty plate directly on the plastic. It was below the foil wrapped around the top and side. And was sitting inside a dry shoe box away from any source of moisture or nutrition. Look closely at the photo and you'll notice little yellow dots in that shit. DUDE WTF!

Got a question here.
I tossed my old master jar for a culture I, in retrospect, want to keep around.
I've had this strain going for about a year now and it's been through a lot of transfers. Is there any issue with cloning a fruit from one of my tubs? I originally obtain this culture by cloning a fruit. So this would have been transferred many times, cloned, transferred many times etc. Am I getting anywhere close to senescence, or is that years away still?

Depends on several factors, but mostly cell division .. are you working from the same cold storage culture for expansion, or just been plate to plate at room temp? A clone will still contain multiple strains, so each transfer or clone further isolates genetics, and if you're lucky, you'll end up with a well performing, truly isolated strain... though 11 of 12 isolates fall short of the original multistrain monoculture IME... so in short
"Depends "

Interesting. Mostly cold stored but sometimes I'd take a new transfer. I think I will clone it but also germinate some more plates and start comparing cultures. I don't think there was anything especially great about this particular culture anyways, it was just very consistent. I just don't want to keep an old culture going if it's getting tired and consistent starts to become consistently lower performance.

it looks ok from the one picture. do you see any wet looking spots pressed against the glass?
How about the fact theres two completely different species of mold growing in there lol

Has anyone actually made a thread about different contamination in jars and how to spot them?

You need a microscope to do identification of contaminats otherwise its mostly guess work. Doesn't matter what contamination you get its a toss situation. Even with a scope you cant narrow it down that well especially in the case of bacteria
Spotting them is just as easy as looking tho. You eventually come to realize not every white growth is what you want

How can you tell there's two different species of mold? I figured it was mold but I don't know what to look for. I knew it wasn't healthy mycelium, though.

Has anyone ever seen anything like this growing on the outside of any of their containers? This one had just come out of the pressure cooker and went straight into a shoebox I use for storage.

Maybe agar boiled over, got on the outside and started some growth? Just guessing.

Well it's healthy mold mycelium lol. Just playing

How are these looking. Would you use them to inoculate jars?

What transfer are they on? Looks like you are getting mostly tomentos mycelium. I usually go for rhizo growth personally, but I hear people have good success with tomentos growth.
