While the psychology is against having a culture in the kitchen the spores are everywhere anyhow.

If you want a colony with well-defined edges try growing it on the surface of water. Rotten fruit or kitchen scraps (not meat or fish) in the water will provide nutrient. Of course, these will readily grow out of doors in all but the coldest weather.

Hmmm I'm not sure my other half would be too impressed with me if I said I want to grow some mould...

Perhaps an opportunity to put your food down and in your mouth at the same time?

Hmmm. I tell you what I would like to do,get mouldy bread! Its ideal because the subject,unlike my photos here,is flat and easier to light. And bread is very fertile.
