Then Sinan and i picked up slime molds from these two and grow more. i have 4 new samples. Just to try to get more slime molds. so all the samples are in same medium and environment, fed by same food.

After this final experiment, i had a meeting with the class. Because of the short time we have for this semester, professor suggested me to analyze the success and failure on different samples, trying to find out why slime molds cannot grow well in winter. He encouraged us to research more and if it's possible, grow more samples in march. we might get different results.
The point of this project is not to build an art work, but to research on organisms and get to know them by experiments and reading articles. So the prior goal is to have my own understanding of slime molds.
