[QUOTE="kormath, post: 109758, member: 4199"] bleach is a little extreme i think, plus the fumes can be harmful. I've always just spot cleaned mold. Scoop it out with a spoon or similar, get the substrate it's on and a bit beneath that. never had it grow back. The humidity is a real concern with the rosea though. If it were me i'd dump the substrate, put it in the oven at 200F for a couple hours to dry it out and kill anything else that may be growing in it. Or if you have spare substrate dump the moist and replace with fresh dry. [/QUOTE]
