I have mold in my soil. Is there anything I can do or do I need to just throw all my plants in the trash. THANKS.

What sort of mold do you have? Sometimes mycorrhizae can make a fuzzy white mold, but it dies quickly in sunlight. Sometimes green algae may grow if there's not much air circulation around the soil, but it can be removed by simply scraping off the top layer of soil. You may be able to remove your mold by adding some H2O2 to your water (this will kill all the beneficial bacteria too, so growth will be affected, but your plant will recover). I've also read posts from users here saying that milk works to kill mildew.

Give us a little more information about the mold, ideally, post a picture. Don't throw everything out yet. All is not lost.
