Since molds are living organisms, a moist, temperate climate is usually best suited to their growth. Putting bread in the refrigerator will slow down the process considerably, but won't stop it altogether. High temperatures will have the same negative growth effect on the mold. That is why most foods are either frozen before we get them or cooked, which sterilizes them. Breads made in factories have preservatives added to slow down the growth of live mold cultures that are already present in the loaf. These methods reduce the growth formation of mold to some extent.
Mold on white bread will grow more quickly if the bread is in an area of high heat. Mold on bread grows more quickly at temperatures that are between 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Mold is a fungus that needs warm and humid conditions to grow.
Yes. Mold will grow faster at warmer temperatures. If the bread is dried out, the mold won't grow.
Your bread will mould quicker if it is in warm, dark, moist conditions and over time as its ideal for bateria growth.
it makes the bread moldy and heats the particles of the bread making it soggy!

Mold spores, bread, moisture and the right temperature.
Yes, under many conditions. Once bread has been exposed to mold spores in the air, moisture plays a key role in fungal growth. Dry bread will almost always take longer to go moldy.
Mold needs moisture to grow. Toasting removes the surface moisture. Toasted bread will mold. It just takes longer.
No, oxygen and moisture.
Moisture is needed for any type of growth, even dry bread has moisture, but to answer the question, Moist bread will mold faster.

Bread will get moldy whether bagged or not. If moist bread is contained in a plastic bag, the moisture would promote mold growth. Bread left open in a dry room would lose moisture, creating a dryer surface that would slow mold growth.
Mold spores, bread, moisture and the right temperature.
Moisture and warmth are ideal conditions for promoting mold growth on bread.
does light effect bread mold growth
A proofer is a "box" where you place the unbaked bread. You can regulate temperature and moisture in order to increase the size of the pieces. When the unbaked bread has double it sizes, its time to place it into the oven
Bread mold (Rhizopus) is a spore forming weak parastic fungis. It can perform both sexual and asexual reproduction, but probably best by asexual (free spore) reproduction. The spores are best dispersed in hotter dry climates, with room for open air and travel of the spores to their counterparts.
temperature (30 degrees celcius is the optimum temp for yeast growth), nutrients (e.g. sucrose, fructose, glucose, lactose - (does not affect yeast growth), pH level (5 - 6 is the optimum pH level for growth)
Yes. Bacteria breed faster in a warm humid environment. Above 60 degrees kills them, 5 degrees slows down the growth and below 0 degrees puts them to sleep.
Bread with Peanut Butter.
Yes, under many conditions. Once bread has been exposed to mold spores in the air, moisture plays a key role in fungal growth. Dry bread will almost always take longer to go moldy.
