Depends. If you leave it out in a dry environment it can take several weeks because it is difficult for spores to germinate in that condition. If placed in a place like in a sealed plastic bag, the moisture will gather up in there and the mould spores will germinate fast, in 1 maybe 2 days.

If you want to do this experiment, look up the question "How do you mold fruit?" and I have answered that there.

Hope this answers your question!

Mold can begin to grow on bread within 24-48 hours under the right conditions, such as warmth, moisture, and oxygen. The growth rate can vary depending on the type of mold and environmental factors. It's important to store bread in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth.

How fast a loaf of bread will go moldy depends on several different things including:

  • the age of the bread since it was baked
  • the quality of the flour and other ingredients
  • whether or not any mold inhibitors were added before it was baked i.e. food preservative chemicals which help to extend the period of freshness
  • the conditions in which the bread was stored from when it was baked until it was purchased
  • the conditions in which the bread was being stored after purchase.
