LIFE IS A JOURNEY, ARE YOU READY?

MOLD ALERT : VINEGAR TO THE RESCUE

We bought a bot of basil from the supermarket and it died. The dead leaves created a bed of mold on the top of the soil. We were going to plant some chili but the seeds are not germinating due to the mold. We have already removed the mold on the top of the soil but it isn't enough. The mold came back again. We read that vinegar could help.

HERE IS HOW :

Use vinegar to kill the mold. Mix your spray bottle with equal parts water and distilled white vinegar. Spritz this solution on the soil of your houseplant, covering the entire sol surface. Do not drench the area with the vinegar spray. You want to lightly mist the soil in about one to three passes, depending on the size of the pot. The vinegar changes the pH of the soil and kills the mold very quickly.
