Moldy Mango seed

[yzinvention]

Hi,
So I started to germinate a mango seed about last week by covering it in a wet paper towel inside a sandwich bag and put it on the top of my fridge. It started to sprout! However I notice some green mold starting to grow on it. What should I do?

This might harm your seedling but I suspect it will be ok but I'd mix 1 tablespoon of 3% hydrogen peroxide per cup of water and then open the bag and pour some in and let it swish around for a few minutes and then pour it out. If the mold comes back do that again.

Next time use that solution to soak the seed for several minutes.
