They are safe. Though the name of the mold escapes me, I have them all the time and have had no ill effects on my plants.
What I've done in the past is to take the dome off to allow the plants to dry on top. (I only use the dome till they germinate anyway.
As for when to set out, this depends on the plants. With the weather we're having in the midwest, I'm chancing that all the cool weather crops are OK to plant outside (cabbage, kale, broccoli, etc)
Unless you have a good way to protect plants from a sneaky late frost, I would avoid putting out the warm season crops (tomatoes, peppers, cukes, etc.)
If my memory is correct, I believe you could plant your warm season plants around Mothers day.
