No pics was just curious if you could get away from heavy bacteria by taking a transfer from the wall. If so it could almost be perfectly clean mycelium to an extent

Have you guys ever noticed a clear bacteria that's on the leading edge of your mycelium in agar? I can only see it when I shine a light or get a glare going to make it reflect back at me.
Very sneaky.

Just poured 40 dishes. I happen to have a dish that meets your question. She has a little bacteria, the myc is standing tall lol. I'll take that transfer and let you know how it goes.

I thought it was the mycelium colonizing under the media. Or very small strings of mycelium. A loupe really helps for seeing shit.

That's what I've told myself too, but I don't see it on all my cultures, and can actually see it on plates that didn't grw well because of this same bacteria.
It's like it's hiding just under the mycelium.

I see the same thing on some plates, but it's usually very small on my clean plates if it's there at all. It could be mycelium, and when that fine growth clearly present maybe it's the mycelium trying to outrun bacteria.
I really need to get a loupe, not only for inspecting cultures but for inspecting tattoo needles. I've missed burrs a few times and I'm lucky I haven't left any scarring.

I used to think it's bacteria until pasty and eat confirmed its just a microscopic leading edge. I'm sure genetics plays a roll on how well it shows

My phone sucks at getting pics of plates but I'll do my best.
@trypt- thanks man, that's a bit reassuring as I'm sure we speak of the same thing.
I'll still try and grab a good pic for you guys. Thank you.

Take a couple transfers first so we can see the culture naked, without plastic in the way

In my limeted experience I think that it is the culture showing it wants a change of media or ratio. Bod is convinced that changing media and changing % of the same media does the same thing.

I have encountered it, its almost like baby oil if that makes sense. Hard as fuck to see, and the mycelium will usually slid across the agar really easy. Some ninja shit that haunted me for months with my Costa Rica before I realized it on a tossed plate I was emptying.

There is a bacteria that looks similar. I have seen the bacteria, and I have plenty of cultures with that nice leading edge that's almost clear. You will know when you have seen both. The difference is at very close look you can see the bacteria is on top of the agar, while the mycelium would be just under, if its the leading edge.

Very shitty picture. Same plate, different angle. Even some I've transfered to brf pucks have come back with it.
That picture doesn't tell anybody shit.. sorry guys. I need a real camera and a loupe. No doubt at all.
Edit
Hey, thanks for the insight madhatter, this does help.

Looks like bacteria to me, idk about others but any time I see the mycelium get that translucent look like it does in the 2nd pic from about 3-6 o'clock I suspect bacteria. It looks like that clear growth that is visible in the 1st pic is coming off that area of myc, hard to tell with the condensation.
Is that clear growth visible or as visible from 12-3 o'clock (2nd pic) as it is in the area I suspect being bacterial?

No. It's only visible on one side. Which orginally is why I thought it was bacteria, then trypt made the comment about how genetics could make a difference for the leading edge.

Could be, that area doesn't look like anything worth keeping anyway imo. The 12-3 o'clock position in the 2nd pic looks awesome though.
