Yeah maybe I should have used fresh bread but I think the bread here contains less preservatives so it should mold!

I'm not just trying to grow mold on breed... I'm trying to grow mold on breed in a jar 🤣

Why are you trying to grow mold on bread? I'm not a biologist, I seem to be missing the point 😉

I distinctly remember doing something similar in 2nd grade to learn experimental design! I ended up as a biologist, so mission accomplished. I even did a version in the science for non-majors class I taught once I realized how many students had literally never done an experiment before. Unfortunately, what we discovered was that cheap American white bread refuses to grow mold. I estimate it was approximately 75% preservatives by weight.
