@ContamClub. A beautiful contamination on PCA. We forget it to wash on Friday. The observation on Monday a beautiful mold occupied the surface.

Check this beautiful contamination👌🏻
I think it's from lab air as I was opening the plate to take pictures of other strains.

Alright. I got one for @ContamClub. Stack of BHI plates held in a plastic sleeve for several months. I pull some out for lab and I am greeted to what can only be described as a chocolate donut with sprinkles.
