Hi all, I always start my peppers indoors. About ready to plant so I moved them to a larger pot but the soil has white mold. Looking to see if I can salvage as I don’t want to contaminate my raised bed if I can get rid of the mold. Any advice is appreciated

Looks like mycorrhizal to me. Why wouldn’t you want it in your beds?

Cinnamon spread over the surface, and watering from the bottom works for me

Just scratch up the top inch of soil, and try to water less often from above. Ideally, you should water container plants from the bottom, you can do this with a saucer filled with water.
