Help - Is agar plate contaminated? + pics
    #24911148 - 01/13/18 03:08 PM (7 years, 4 days ago)

Hi folks,

I am trying to grow cambodian cubensis. I am at the first stage which is "spore print to agar" as known as germination. So here my plate pics, someone can tell me if this is mold or mycelium please?

edit - it is growing very slow, I did inoculate it with spore at least 3 weeks ago, and temperature is 24 celsius since 2th week.

by the way I can take better photos if the photos aren't good to determining if it is contaminated or not...

I've never had a plate look like that. The cambo I have is really ropey and rhizo and doesn't have tomentose growth at all. Yours looks like it could be a mix or mostly mold with a little rhizo growth in there.

If it were me, which it isn't, I would toss and try again.
Hopefully someone with more certainty will check this out.

Could you take a pic from above in normal light from above? It doesn’t look like mycelium from the pics but I’ll be more sure with better pics.

Also I hope I didn’t steal someone’s profile pic that had it before me :lmafo:
I saw this pic somewhere and was quite sure it wasn’t in this forum lol anyway don’t feel thefted man

Thanks you guys for all replies

Also, I was surprised when I saw the same profile picture after asking for help from you.  :wowz:

Well, I am sad to hear that it isn't look like mycelium. I will take some better shots than photos at above and upload here in 2 hours.

I would go ahead and take transfers from those.
Is it the photos or is there black on a few of those?

Yes it is photos, actually they look very nice in my phone  :shrug:  , dark regions are shadow of the "things" that grows in the plate. I will take another good shots with proper light so please check back this thread later  :typing:
