Mold Fight photos!

Rejoice! Using my knowledge of ancient sciences I managed to coax my camera back to life and capture some photographs of the monsterous molds doing battle!

Here you can see the tomato infected with the pale plague of white mold and the orange peels growing grotesque green horrors the likes of which have only been known to fruit you forget about for three months at the back of a cupboard! The horror!
The orange peel is coated in some fine fibers, surely this is the begining of some ill conceived moldy monstrosity! But whether this is green or white, we do not yet know ...
This could be the deciding move of the battle, whichever mold claws it's way accross the surface of that orange peel will have enough strength to destroy the other ... and perhaps, life as we know it!



The lab of unspeakable terror and ambient candle light!

Let battle commence!

Green mold vs White! The battle of these terrifying monsters has begun!
Unfortunately my ridiculous camera has consumed every battery left on earth, so I am going to have to wait for duracel to catch up with my battery demands before I can photograph the horror that is; Mold fighting!

Samples of both green and white mold were enclosed in a conical flask with subtrates of tomato and orange peel immersed in water, the white mold took to the watery depths once more, rising through the putrid flesh of the tomato! The green mold is falling behind, much slower in it's growth it is begining to loose to the pale pestilance that is creeping up on it from below!

Which mold will be consumed!? Who will survive this horrific battle!? Come back soon to find out!



P.S. Readers (if there are any) may be interested to know that the bottles I have used so far are over 80 years old, from the early 1900's, but I am going to exchange these for petri dishes next round as this will make photographing and disposal easier, because you see ... you cannot simply pour a mold down the drain, such a horrific monstrosity can only be disposed of in fire! The fire ... of the sun!

The pale pestilence from the deep has arisen!

This is the true face of our watery adversary, a white frosty layer of horrific mold upon the surface of the water! Women recoil in terror and men brandish canes at this ghostly ghastly grime, Cthulhu only knows what is to come!
Additionally; The orange peel's mold has turned dark green and both are nearly ready to be transplanted to thier battleground where they will do battle, which mold will overtake and consume the other!? White or Green!? There's only one way to find out- return again soon, if you dare!

Authors note: I do apologise for the dark photographs here but my sleeping pattern is not conducive to photography as I am mostly awake in the time period of ghouls, also known as; Night! [Maniacal laughter, thunder and lightening]

It came from beneath the waves ...

To destroy all mankind! Or atleast just his tomato slices he left in a jar ...

Yes that's right, the tomato has struck mold! Beneath the surface of the water there lurks a lurking lurker! What unkown horror will sprout forth from the watery depths!? Whether our tiny human minds can fathom it or not, we are about to find out ...

IT LIVES!


Within the clear walls of a jar containing not but plant matter and it's juice, something has begun to grow ... Upon the dead skin of the orange, we have life! It is small now, with a hint of green, but what unholy monstrosity will it amass into!? Only time will tell ...
