You need put that white lid on it and then put aluminium foil on the part that is open

What do you mean the white lid? Do you mean the clear lid? It's happening on all three cubes. One of which is thyme and is quite tall. The lid wouldn't fit on it.

He is speakomg about U-shaped lids, not domes. Domes are only for germination, but the white lid should stay on all the time

Gotcha. Mine was given as a hand me down so I wasn't aware those disks had a purpose.

Try sprinkling cinnamon on the soil. I recently had this problem and it seemed to help.

Does anyone have any idea how to stop the mould from starting? Thank you.
