It depends on what kind of mold it is and if they've produced spores or not. I would just assume with any mold they can and have.

joiningheads said: Completely Bogus. So much bromance going on with you gals. Not to mention you're being bigger jerks in response. Its part of the forum to not unnecessarily repeat posts. And if you read my post there is information in there. Sorry this isn't "your" community, the Mushroom Cultivation forum is a place for information and this post is basically not helpful! Totally within the guidelines of response to an OP...
The thread is titled "how to identify..." and so bod your last post completely contradicts that and just reiterates how unnecessary it is. It's easy to use the search function.
I just wanted to say, fuck you.
It's 6 years later and this post helped me, your posts actually cluttered up the fucking thread 
I know you don't even post here anymore, but seriously...I still think you're a moron.
Yes I bumped a 6 year old thread, sue me.

Must bump this even tho old. How long did that mold take to colonize the plate to the point you showcase in the OP? How fast are those gray molds in general?

I thought those "cobweb" gray wispy molds were rapid. 1 day they are tiny the next they cover large surfaces. Wrong?

Yup. Most of the time its green tho. Never had bread with cobweb that i recall If not all molds sporulate how do they reproduce? Some just stay white or the color they were.

Hard to tell from that pic if it's cobweb or tomentose. Cobweb will colonize the whole jar in a few days and turn grey and dusty looking. The white dots are yeast. Any way it goes those jars are doomed.

I have a question about the last grain jar pic under the agar pics. Do some types of cobweb turn green. I ask because it states that its cobweb inside jar. When I look closely at that pic, I see 2 spots of green. Just curious how that jar turned out in the end. Did the green take over, or am I seeing a reflection of some sort

How bad is yeast? Can I put them outside in a hole with some manure and perhaps get some growth?

Its contaminated im positive. If you want 10000% confirmation please post a pic of the whole jar.

Will do, rest of the jar is nice normal myc though. The "cobweb" like growth, has been there for 3-4 days, isn't exploding throughout, is confined to a few areas and colonising about the speed of myc at a guess. Maybe bit faster, but nothing crazy and I've see jars colonize with myc at the same speed for some fast colonizing strains.
But I'll get some full size pics ASAP
cheers

Looks like tomentose growth and a bacterial jar. Did you by any chance use a spore syringe to inoculate that?

That's good news then (about cobweb).
This jar was inoculate by a popcorn g2g transfer, but the popcorn jar was from a spore syringe.
How bad is the bacteria infection? Worth a punt to put them in a shoebox and see if they do anything? Bury them in some manure in the garden? Or just toss out?

I'm convinced that is contaminated. I mean you can try to fruit it I'm just keeping it real tho, it ain't looking good at all. That jar looks like it has 2 different kinds of mycelial growth in there.

Try a shoebox. All you have to lose is some coir. Let it finish up and spawn 1 to 1. If it is contamination it will be more apparent by then anyways. Hard to tell with the crystal jars in pics
