If you're talking about trich, it is whiter and kinda powdery.

white mold often turns green and myc doesn't.
You can see the myc sector away from the contams too.

So essentially a rule would be to keep transferring until u get rhyzomorphic growth and at that point u can assume its clean?
Also, ime not all white mold turns green. I think and have seen a definitive difference between white mold and trich

Lots of white molds don't turn green. There's literally only one green mold in that thread, all of the rest of them are white molds. Even got a dish with 2 other white molds you should be able to recognize based off morphology. I've never seen a rizmorphic mold. Eventually you just get to a point where you can instantly tell the morphology is all wrong.

You can clearly tell the difference between healthy growth that I transferred from, and the other molds in there.

Where I transferred out of it xD. There's also bacteria in there too that went to the bottom of the mycelium, if you look in the reflection. It was the 2nd worst syringe ive had to date.
