Is that a spot of bacterial contam on the top left of the agar pics?
I found a pic of my last plate I posted alittle farther into colonization of the plate.

They are suspected to be Pan. tropicalis. You can see pics in my gallery under panaeolus. Workman is going to be working on assuring me of what they are.

There is a spot in the top left of your picture (away from the majority of the growth) that appears to be bacterial.

Juke Adro,
The blue shroom in your sig is stunning, did you take the photo? Any information about it?
Thanks

And the caterpillar is a little disturbing in that it brings back memories of an old Outer Limits show where the bugs had human like faces.

lol Nice pic RR. If you stand back from a distance you can see the rim of the petri dish.
RR, We used gentamycin sulf. as antibiotic for years and thought it inhibited germination for P. mex A, while not for cubes and many others. We attempted this with same prints and syringes (we used both) on each run, and a high quality pc controlled incubator. We later switched to first germinating P. mex A spores on standard MEA, PYA, etc. and then cleaning it up later on genta s. plates. I know it's prefered to clean it up initially, but this was our conclusion for P mex A.
I will try this again to see if it was just a fluke and the spores chosen those days just happened to be of lower quality (i.e. dehydrated, aged).
Not sure but maybe it was Stamets who said running your mycelium continously on antibiotic could later cause your cultures to be less resistant against bad bacteria and less able to utilize their own defense mechanisms. That's perhaps the case with all organisms when given excessive amounts of antiotics.
btw Lipa, those two plates in these recent pics look like mycelium to me. At the beginning(first photos) the bottom two did look like possible bacteria, except the two sectoring plates above them. Now you can clearly see 3-D. However it might or might not be a polyculture. If they are result of spores from outdoors, then I find it hard to believe it's not a mix.
I would run with a clean cut from the plate on your first photos, attempt to fruit on a few different substrates, and then see what happens. Oh, what did the spores resemble under the microscope?

I am definite that some of the plates are harboring contaminants. I have transfered a lot of colonies into new plates and isolating for now. They are looking good though. I don't get my new microscope until Tuesday. I am soooo excited! Workman pointed me to a good little setup and the college is going to help me calibrate it so I can take measurements. Ye ha!

Mushroom, Earthy.
In future mate if you can't find your answer by search, just make a new thread In mush cult This is advanced section and the thread is old as hell. You will get a lot more answers making a new thread
