ConclusionTo conclude, the experiment was a success and was not a mess. My prediction was correct that the mold did have the most growth on milk because of the dairy. That being said the mold was the slowest to grow and is different . Next time I would take pictures more frequently and monitor the growth of the colonies more closely
