If you're referring to those weird stuff around the edge of the glass, I'd say don't worry about it.
Many lenses project an image circle much bigger than the actual film area, so I doubt if you can see the fungi on your pictures.
And obviously, stopping down a stop and your aperture blades would be covering the fungi
if you're really worried about it, the Canon FD mount is long dead, and the 35 2.8 is a cheap lens so finding another one shouldn't be difficult.
Of course I understand how nice it is to own flawless glass (and how much fun it is to fix your own equipment! :D)... so if you feel like it, go ahead and fix it. Don't forget to let us know what removes the fungi! i have a few lenses with lots of fungi too! :-(
