Is the mold on my soil harmful?
I am growing a number of herbs, starting them off in a propagator on my windowsill. A few days after planting, a white mold started to appear, and it stinks really bad. Now the plants have started to shoot through and the mold us starting to clear up as I allowed some ventilation.
My girlfriend is worried that the mold is going to be harmful for us, should we eat the herbs. Is there any danger? Should I just throw them out and start again, with less water?

No now that you have ventilated and the problem is resolved, the mold is dead and the plant is healthy, now you can devour the plant. Bon appetite
