I started growing last Saturday,just moved my plant closer to the light recently because at first I had light problems,had to buy one of course ha,but yea theres actually little pieces of grass or little weeds growing out of my soil,and looks like Moss on top,what does this mean?
Fear Not ! Mary's a weed and can grow in even the worst of soil. Now, here is a cheap & easy fix. Mix two ounces of Hydrogen Peroxide to one quart of water. I am talking about 3 % HP (you probably already have some) you clean / disinfect cuts or scratches with it. If you don't have it, get some a Rite Aid or Wally World (it costs a buck or less).

Pour
this mix directly onto the soil (with the mold /fungi), drench it good. It will kill off most of the bad stuff, pretty quick. The extra oxygen in it pumps up good microorganisms, and kills or slows down the bad ones. Wait three days, mix one ounce of Hydrogen Peroxide with one quart of water & repeat. After that, return to your normal feeding/watering schedule.
Lesson learned - when you buy cheap soil, you get cheap soil. To keep your buget low, compost yard & food waste. Later, you can use the compost as a soil amendment or make compost tea. Both provide lots of benefits and cost almost nothing to make / use. I am including two hot links to some good info. Just ignore the advertising - making compost can cost nothing - you can make a compost brewer with a clean five gallon buck & a cheap aquarium air pump / air stone. Ignore the buy our nice high priced stuff ads & check out the info. It's solid & Free...
