Mycelium growth or mould? - Agar with Hydrogen Peroxide

Hey everyone,

First time posting here. I've been playing around with agar for a while now and it's not until i started making agar with Hydrogen Peroxide solution that i believe i have really minimised contamination (hopefully?) I'm working with Psilocybe Subaeruginosa mycelium. That said, i just wanted some thoughts on how these agar plates are looking, whether i am on the right track or whether i am wasting my time essentially growing mould.

I think i am on the right track, but there are a few agar plates that look a little questionable.I have noticed a couple of the plates have a brown tinge to the white strands. The mycelium looks very "strandy", so i'm a bit worried that it might be cobweb mould or something similar.

Keen to hear your thoughts, thanks in advance.

An agar recipe that is not suitable for germinating bacterial or mold spores on it or that in some way does not support growth of these contaminants would basically defeat the purpose of using agar. The point is to make contamination visible of its present, not to just sweep it under the mat so that it's not visible on the plate (but might become apparent later).
