Sample 3

Sample 2

sample 2 is not growing as fast as 1 and 3. Additionally, it startet to mold. I removed mold from 1 and 3 and it did not come back. That is not the case for sample 2.
For the weekend i brought my three samples to my parents house in another city. To transport the Physarum safely in a train I repurposed the tool kit suitcase. It seems like the transportation and change of surrounding has not harmed the organisms. On the contrary, the Physarum is growing faster in the dark suitcase than in a shadowy place in my room.
Could Physarum be treated like a pet?
