October 17, 2021Q.Once You Have White Mold You Can Never Get Rid Of It?
Your article states there is no remedy for white mold, so my garden is doomed, I want to cry! After clipping back my plant what can I do for the soil to kill or discourage mold growth?

Certified ExpertA.Does your whole garden have it or just that spot where you cut back a plant? You can always solarize the soil to kill pathogens. That entails covering the area with clear plastic and weighing the edges down with bricks. It takes several weeks with sunny days. Best done in summertime. If it's not too large an area, you can remove and replace the soil. Where you cut back a plant you can treat it with a fungicide to see if that helps. However, the article says it's best to remove infected plants.

It is initially puffy and almost sticky, sort of looks like vomit. I’m guessing that it is a fungus of sorts but it only appears on my mulch. Is this harmful to animals and plants?

June 17, 2022A.It is a common mold that mulch tends to develop now and then, which indicates it is decomposing. You can ignore it if you want. Or spray some vinegar.
