Green mold?
    #7551219 - 10/23/07 02:55 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

So I have a couple jars at about 50% colonization right now, yesterday I was really happy with how well they were doing but when I looked at them today I saw that 4 out of the 5 jars had really small green spots on them. Is this green mold? what did I do wrong, I was very sterile every step of the way? Can mold from one jar contaminate another jar just from air?

Now that I think about it, I remember that I messed up these jars by not putting the foil tight enough when I PC'd them so the moisture content was more than it should have been. Is this most likely the reason for the mold?

No. Molds are caused by mold spores being introduced to the sterile media. This almost always happens at inoculation. A picture would help.
