What the hell is this? My agar grew hair overnight!

This obviously (well, it's my first time, so maybe not that obviously) looks badly contaminated.

But what the hell is that spout of white hair that's grown out of one of the bits of mushroom? Is that mycelium or a very weird, aggressive mould? It's snow white but it's growing like a tuft of thin hair, straight up, not like mycelium along the agar. Very weird.

The other little white spot you can see underneith it is also a piece of mushroom flesh, I think developing mycelium.

But that think layer of white something that's covered the surface of the rest of the agar, I assume that is contamination.

FYI, it's Shaggy Mane mushroom (Coprinus comatus).

Yeah, looks like you've got some nice mold and bacteria there... :frown:

Haha. Yeah I figured. Crazy shit, I threw it out hours ago but it looked cool. Like one of those 90's hair trolls.

I guess this comes with the territory when trying to clone mushrooms picked out of a horse stable. :smile:
