Green Mold - How common?

I consider myself the "average" grower, so keep in mind I don't have a "tent" which I disinfect but I do use a SAB.
My original grow was ten 1/2 pint jars, 8 of which consolidated without green mold, two I had to pitch, I thought that was a pretty good rate of inoculation.
My second grow was twelve 1/2 pint jars and 4 pint plastic bins, using the same process and spores as first grow. This was in summer weather instead of winter like first grow. Six of my jars consolidated and grew without green mold, Six of my jars and all of my plastic bins I had to PC & pitch.
I guess my question is, how "common" is green mold? The RR video's sound as if it's something that happens very often and that I shouldn't be too concerned. Considering I grow in a basement, I expect SOME green/contaminated jars, but just looking for a "standard" ratio if anything.

there are so many mold spores, viruses, bacteria and God knows what else floating in the air at all times, on your clothes, on your hands.. spores are sticky as hell and even if you walk outside for a sec you will carry a world of shit back in with you.
practice good sterility and you will have minimal contams. RR did a fuck ton more quantity and bulk processes so it would be expected he'd have contams more often.

True the more you do, the more you will see. However with good practices you will avoid seeing things often.
