Physarum polycephalum, also referred as slime molds, belongs to the supergroup Amoebozoa, phylum Mycetozoa, and class Myxogastria. P. polycephalum, often referred to as the “many-headed slime,” is a slime mold that inhabits shady, cool, moist areas, such as decaying leaves and logs. It is sensitive to light; in particular, light can repel the slime mold and be a factor in triggering spore growth.


First Experience of Physarum with Medium of Ager

  • Medium: 23.10.2018
    • 100 ml of distilled water
    • 2g of agar
    • oat flakes


I made a new sample with a new medium. Parallel to the samples that I use for the experiment I started to use this new Medium to grow the specimen.

  • Medium: 13.11.2018
    • 100ml of distilled water
    • 3g of agar
    • oat flakes
  • Medium: 04.12.2018
    • 100 ml of distilled water
    • 1g of agar
    • Edible Color
    • oat flakes


  • Medium: 18.12.2018
    • 100 ml of distilled water
    • 2g of agar
    • oat flakes

Second Experience of Physarum with Medium of Potato and Oat

I made a new sample with a new medium. Parallel to the samples that I use for the experiment I started to use this new Medium to grow the specimen (to have live healthy samples to experiment), I started from the formula that Fernanda Caicedo gets to in her previous experiments, and I altered for my special use. [2], EIGHTH EXPERIMENT.

  • Medium: 20.11.2018
    • 100 ml water
    • 12 gr cooked potatoes
    • 12 gt oat flakes
    • (mix together)
    • 2 gr Agar
    • Mix all together and boiled for 2 minutes
  • Medium: 07.12.2018
    • 100 ml water
    • 12 gr cooked potatoes
    • 2 gr Agar
    • Mix all together and boiled for 2 minutes
  • Medium: 07.12.2018
    • 100 ml water
    • 12 gt oat flakes
