i made a batch of six jars 8 days ago and all are showing signs of growth. one of the jars is half colinized and its only been 8 days. what i am wodnering is, can mycelium have small "hairs" about an 1/8th of an inch long growing off of them, or not? because my jars look like they have tiny bright white hairs growing in them and i dont know if this is cobweb or myc, because this ismy first real attempt at growing. i bloiled the jars about an hour and a half then heated needles and alcohol swabbed them before inoculating.

This is normal... just the hyphae extending out onto the substrate. With cobb web mold you really don't see hyphae. Cobb web mold is easy to pick up compared to the P. cube fungus. It's very pale white to grey and transparent. Where as well established cube fungus is thick and white. You'll notice the hyphae in all the jars on the edge of the growth line.

Yeah, I sort of have a similiar question. I have jars that innocculated last week. At first I thought it was cobweb mold because it was cloudy where the spore solution ran, but then thick bright white spots began appearin in the middle of it and began spreading. Is this normal?

under 5 days, over half the jar I was told it's not contam. MYCELIUM. YES. Jar #10 = love [edit] That grey tint is NOT on the fuzz, it's actually the reflection of the lamp being used as a light source ;p
