i'm doing a science fair topic about which bread molds the fastest.  i will be 
testing four different types of home-made bread.  i want to make sure that the 
experment is safe but i'd perfer that the bread was uncovered. Should I keep the 
bread that i'm molding wraped? is this okay?

I also want to know how do you measure mold without disturbing it?
I look on your website and found an answer that was close but it didn't quite 
answer my question.  For my science fair project I'm growing mold.  I need some 
way to figrue out which bit  of mold is growing the fastest.  

Finally, does bread mold grow on anything but bread?
