I can post more pictures if needed. Was wondering if its contam or trich. Bruises blue if touched so I'm wondering if its just fluffy mycelium.

Looks like the beginning stages of trich to me. If you have any other grows going right now I’d quarantine that one before it goes green. I may be mistaken and it could be bacteria but it looks like it will turn into the mean green soon.

Looks good to me. I've seen all those colors early on with success but you never know. All precautions are good though and if others see contamination then you may want to isolate that grow.

Not a question I can answer. I only started with agar in 2019. But I'm positive if you search your question you will have hours of experience to read about.

If it's your only tub just leave it for a day or two and see if it turns green. When shtoomrookie said isolate it he meant put the tub somewhere by itself, not isolate the strain on agar. Don't worry about doing that yet just focus on getting clean spawn.

Check this thread out. Closest I have seen documented isolate.

Hey thanks for responses. I used to grow back in the day just starting up again. Do people just throw out bad tubs?

I'm not totally sold on trich, it does look suspect. But at the very least, the orange/brown coloring indicated bacteria. If it turns green, toss it. You'll know in 24-48 hours.
About bad tubs; Yep! i toss em as soon as i see trich. They're fine to go into regular garbage, but if you have some way of composting them or putting them out with grass clippings

Ok i wait a couple days and repost update. If it is trich I want to figure out where I went wrong. Research says trich is just from the environment and exposed spawn is subject to infection.

I know agar is the best way to get clean spawn but I'm not really in the market for a flow hood right now. Even a small one. Still air box could be ok i guess.

Join me in my adventure into agar  I don't have the space for a flow hood, but since this is for science and fun (and my batting average is horrible for syring to grain) I decided I could only do better.

On the topic of agar, I just started myself, using a still air box and advice posted on this site - out of 50 plates I have messed with I only got 1 (possibly 2 at most) contams - it's really not as complicated as it may seem, just need to follow procedures in the guide posts about it
