Mold in Compot

[mSummers]

I bought a flask from Woodstream and potted it in a container with a lid to keep the humidity up to slowly harden the plants off per Bill's recommendations. While watering today, I noticed some gray mold growing on the agar. Is that a problem and if so, what's the best way to get rid of it?

well, as long as the agar is there mold is going to have a feast on the agar....so best way to get rid of it is to wash away the agar...but having said that..the mold wont hurt the roots, once the agar dries up , the mold wont have anything to 'root' in

Thanks! Glad to hear it isn't anything to worry about.

thats one of the reasons to wash the agar off. It should be ok. watch carefully.
