I screwed up! I know where I went wrong but is there a remedy?? This past Friday I transplanted my seedlings from their seed starting cells into peat pots. I crammed them all into a cut-down box for easy handling and set them back in the greenhouse. I just checked them and the peat pots are molding! Too much moisture with no air flow. Can I dry the pots out and hope the mold dies or is it going to keep growing and kill my tomato plants? Or should I just repot into plastic?
