Best Answer

Mold needs carbohydrates to grow. A little flour, sugar, bread crumbs, or cornstarch will provide the nutrients needed. Mold requires a starter colony of spores but these are generally already in the air except in the cleanest of environments. You could get the starter from some already moldy bread or fruit. Give it a few days with no great extremes of hot, cold, sunlight, etc. You might cover the dish lightly with a paper towel or a clean rag.

You can introduce organic substances such as food, leaves, or dirt into water to create an environment conducive to mold growth. Additionally, exposure to air and lack of sunlight can also contribute to the growth of mold in water.
