Is this bacteria or unevenly solidified agar?

I'm on the fence about whether this is bacterial contamination or just weird clumping.

Some of my plates have these bumps/splotches on them. They've been like this since I poured them (day after, I didn't look at them right after I poured them). Other than the mycelium growing, they haven't developed in any way. And the mycelium has just grown over it/climbed over the bigger bumps.

The plates that came out like this were the last consecutive five—so I'm thinking that I let the agar cool too much and some of it solidified before my pour. Thoughts?

Two votes for clumping agar.  That mycelium looks clean af.  Nice job.
