I don't think this is Cubes 2

PDA with blue food dye.
There is pronounced orange hue on this thing that gets stronger with time. Any idea what i'm growing?

Still toying with agar. Not grown a single fruit yet so no experience.

Looks like a clean culture to me. Put it to grain and see what grows.

Is this a germination plate, T1, T2, etc?

Its nice whatever it is. Certainly seen cube myc like that. Agar recipe can make myc look all sorts of ways.

The orange hue is probably from myc eating the color. Blue seems to go fastest.
Flip the plate over I bet the back you can see the normal color agar in the middle now.

This is T1 from germination plate, which itself took two weeks (i think) to appear in a sea of yeast and bacteria.

Yup. Original PDA color from the bottom but the mycelium looks very dry on top. Not powdery but very dry.

I did cut up another plate (whole plate) that looks similar (from the same germination) and did agar to popcorn. One week and all that I get are green mold. I can't seem to get popcorn right. They seem to have green mold in their DNA. PCed them for 90mins.

Either your culture was infected or you contaminated the grain during inoculation then
