I keep having problems with green mold after second flush

Hello guys. I have had green mold for awhile now and im trying to figure out how to keep it gone. I cleaned everything my room the house ect. I had one recent tub that was fine. " well it took a full month to start fruiting" then after first flush literally the next morning there was green mold and that white stuff the green mold has. and i got the flys.
is there another way to do it without flushing? i heard some people just keep misting and they grow the same??
has anyone here had the same problem when when they were new? get good first flushes then almost everytime mold on second flush? I am also using bods bucket tech which is cococoir and grain which is supposed to be imune to infection. I am still using my popcorn subs but i have all new oats spawning up will be ready soon. I am really hoping it is because of the popcorn.
anyways has anyone have experience as a nooob or ever with green mold usually after first flush?
what else can i do? what did you do that eventually put a stop to it?
maybe the cococoir is too wet to begin with? with oat spawn will there be less contamination? all the spawn apears to be fine with no infection so its really making me itch i keep catching this green mold

I would clean the hell out of the area where you work, bleach, Lysol, any mold killing cleaner on all surfaces. Often won’t experience molds growing but we’re providing them perfect conditions to grow. I would say if that doesn’t help there is something in the technique but eliminate the environmental factor. Just some suggestions I’ve never run into green mold yet. Don’t be afraid to ask when it first appears so you can know to dump it before it can be an ongoing problem.

Could be your spawn and how clean it was from the start and thru transfers.
Everyone who’s gotten many flushes without a contamination seem to have a couple factors aligned: 1) they are not using MS syringes, but rather take their culture from a clean agar plate. 2) have a fairly clean room they grow in 3) tend to toss contaminated tubs prior to spore release, or have a secondary room for contaminated tubs
How’d the first flush come along at least? Well?

what was a typo? coco coir has no nutrients or anything for mold to grow on so using cococoir as bulk sub helps with contamination. am I wrong?

I would think of it as a weakened immunity after the first flush and harvest. exposed grains, damaged sub and not so sterile technique when getting it ready for second flush is a big opening for other molds and contaminates to be introduced.

I read Bod's bucket tek which is coco coir and grain. Alright then, was just confusing me  But coir has some nutrients.

Coir alone can support mold growth.
 
It's unlikely to be the source of green mold though. That's probably spawn related.
