Hey all, I've seen a few people asking here if anyone have any slime mold cultures for sale, now I do! The slime mold that I have is Physarum Polycephalum. Growing kits online usually cost around $30 dollars, but I will be selling petri dishes with actively growing mold for only $10 + shipping. Physarum is a type of plasmodium slime mold which acts as if it had a brain, although it doesn't. It can move around in search of food, grow and create really cool patterns. Depending on interest, I will buy more supplies to create more cultures, if only a few people are interested, I'll just keep the cultures to myself, and arrange privately. If interested please reply below and I will try my best to suit your needs! This mold is EXTREMELY easy to grow, anybody can grow it with items found in your house already!
