Vic,

I see in our plates:

1. a smooth, yellowish lawn of what looks like the smeg to me.
2. random clearings at times (as though the agar solidified too soon maybe, before thoroughly mixing?)
3. small, whiter-colored "colonies"
4. Rough, translucent fibrous-looking debris (maybe from agarose?)

Please see attached photos in this post, and the next few:

Sincerely,
David Ronderos
