When you’re growing, it’s natural to see some mold on top of the soil. This isn’t dangerous for you or the plants, it can even be a sign of good growing conditions, but it’s not that nice to look at.

Watch this video or follow the steps below to remove it:

 

Step-by-step:

1. Remove the mold carefully with a fork, your finger, or any other tool.

In most cases, this will prevent future mold growth. 

2. Remove dead plant material from the soil.
