    1) Take a slice of bread and keep it on a clean plate.

    2) sprinkle a small amount of water on it. In other words, moisten it slightly. Don't make it soggy.(do it once only)

    3) Cover it with a suitable vessel/cover so as to cut off the light completely and maintain the humidity inside at the same time.

    4) Keep it in a warm corner for a few days.

    5) You will see beautiful growth of mold (Bread mold or Mucor as it is called in the scientific language).

    6) cover it with the vessel when not under observation.

    7) It will begin to degenerate with in the next few days.

    8) A stale bread is likely to give quicker results.
