+ Clean every trace of that mold magnet up ASAP. Even though it will eventually dry and no longer be attractive to mold... in the mean time it may spawn millions of spores that will float around in your house and rest on surfaces waiting a little breeze to fly them to your next contamination disaster...

I have a feeling that spread out like that in open air it will dry out before anything will grow on it.. still should be cleaned regardless

I confess running my drill into my azzie loaf several times kinda like airating a lawn. Shit wants to breath. Pics when i get home.
As a recovering glass artist...I feel her pain...not really, ouch. That's crazy..How do you fall asleep blowing glass? I rocked a torch for like almost 15 years.. One of the original GTT Delta's..That's crazy. Lucky she recovered ok...

Thanks brother. Water won't be ready for about a week, or so (maybe). A good hand would be welcomed around here. Not too many people want to get their hands dirty. Anyways, I got off thine butt, and got the materials pasteurizng.

50/50+. 10 parts sphagnum peat moss/10 parts medium grade vermiculite (grade of vermiculite used depends on personal preference, and availability)/1 part gypsum/.25 parts agricultural hydrated lime TO THE AMOUNT OF PEAT MOSS USED. Mix gypsum, and lime in with the peat moss, dry. Hydrate the peat moss mix, and vermiculite secparately, because they have different moisture retention capacities, and rates, then mix them together. Pack the materials down in a tote for 5 minutes as to give a chance for the materials to become evenly hydrated. Load them into jars, or spawn bag(s), and pasteurize for an hour, and a half @ 140F using water as the heat transferring medium.

You don't need 10 posts to do that. Just load the pics up to the site and make a thread.
