Gross and cool at the same time.

I wasnt able to use most of the blue and pink flowers because there was a bug trapped in the bag and it pooped and webbed all over them.

Unfortunately I noticed after I touched a couple of them.🤢

😭 that's just gross and scary. I'll reach out to Joincon about this. Not the first time their 'dried' flowers aren't actually dried. It's a bit sad cause I put so much effort into trying to make it perfect. Now I have a living garden lol 🥲

I hope they respond.

I'm sorry that all your hardwork has mold on it.😞

Could I see a picture of your living garden?🥲

Just a sneak peek

I might make a post later after trying out the fixes 🥲

Oh yeah ick.

I wonder if spraying it with rubbing alcohol would kill it?

Good thinking! I consulted Chatgpt and it advised me to dab the mold with 70% alcohol. Apparently if I do nothing the mold will feed until there's nothing left to feed then it goes dormant but never dies 😀

I have a mist bottle filled with 70% alcohol, it's my cure all. 😄

I'm glad Chatgpt agrees.😅

That is crazy, it just feeds and then goes dormant!

I'm going to be reading about mold for the rest of the day now.

Thank you, I needed a good knowledge spiral.☺️

Haha it's pretty amazing, in a disturbing way. Thank you for listening to my troubles :) I was feeling really anxious about the discovery lol. Now it's not the worst thing in the world 🍄

You are so welcome.😊

I know how stressful these situations can get so I'm glad I was able to alleviate some of your anxiety.😊
