Hey, I grew some fungus in a petri dish once and its been months since I grew it.
(grew from a piece of moist bread)
It still looks as if it’s alive and well. It doesn’t look like its dead or anything. I’m sure no moisture is in the dish as it hasn’t been opened for months. But it doesn’t look like it has grown any since the entire bread was engulfed. Would you think it is still alive? Or just dead and “preserved”?
Also, whats the best way to prepare a slide of fungus to view under a microscope? As this was the purpose for growing it and I’ve never looked at it under a microscope because I don’t know how to take any and put it on a slide.
