yeah shit is way to wet or humid you using florescent lights or something? try and vent the space and make sure keep humidity down and make sure top soil is dry before watering

Mr. Bond . . . and Top Soil doesn't mean the top of the soil. It means your growing medium.
I've used fluorescents for decades and NEVER had any mold, so I don't know what's up with citing that?

I think one of my major problems was over watering when I planted the seeds, but I am using fluoros. I will open the space up to let is air out and remove the mold. I went about this all wrong from the beggining, but I do have 7 healthy looking sprouts. I have some pics on my jacked up grow in the journal area (just do an advanced search on my name). I may just go ahead and transplant all my sprouts in the next couple of days. The way I had started them will make them hard to seperate from one another if I wait to much longer anyways.
This is my first marijuana grow(personal grow anyways), but I do know about top soil not being the "top" of the soil. Horticulture is a hobby of many people in my family, this just happend to be the monster I decided to take on.

Try sprinkling a bit of cinnamon on the soil when you transplant, its a natural fungicide.

Thanks alot, I went ahead and put some cinnnamon no there any now just because it may still be another day before I can actually transplant.

That should stop the spread, I used it on mine as a preventative measure.

Do you have a fan on your plant too?

Yeh, I have a fan on them. It is hanging so that I can see all the sprouts move(very little movement but enough to tell) with the breeze. I have already transplanted into cups and everything seems ok now.
