Help possible slime mold identification!
Hello everyone!I went to the forest the other day and tried to forage some slime.I found this on decaying wood, grabbed them, and took them home to some Petri plates with coffee filters (I'm aiming to grow them in agar), I'm not sure if what I have here is P. polycephalum (giving the intense yellow color). Could someone help me know if I'm on the right track??? …See More
"Hello everyone! I'm new to the group and currently a Master student in Bioengineering :) is anyone working with P. polycephalum in Mexico??"

- Honestly, I have been recently introduced to slime moulds, but rapidly became amazed.
I started my Master's this year in Bioengineering however due to Covid's persistence I'm unable to travel to Canada to work on my project. Given this frustrating reality, my supervisor suggested working with an organism friendly enough to grow from home.
I wish through this group I will be able to learn and see the incredible possibilities this organism can have, as well as knowing the amazing humans that grow them and study them for many different reasons.
