so today i noticed a light green coloring in my fruiting chamber. i want to say that it looks very similar to moss and wanted to see if anyone can verify if it is indeed mold..and if it is...is there a way to kill it off and still fruit the goodies. this is my first attempt using rye berries and potting soil (though i should of used casting soil from what i was told). thanks for any help!
i cant upload the pic so i added here.

hard to tell but id say yes, cut a large area around it out and leave it be and see if it returns if so toss it.

I won't click offsite images, but if it's already been put into a tray and cased, you need to toss it out. If it gets green mold before first flush, it usually indicates the spawn was contaminated, and it will be throughout the substrate. The green is the spores and you don't want to do anything to disturb them, which releases them into the air. Toss out the tray without digging into it. RR
