We are sorry to hear about your experience with Vigoro Potting Mix and appreciate your feedback.
Fungal mold spores including mushroom producing fungus are a natural part of soils and mulch. It just takes the right conditions for the spores to develop into a fungus or mold. In fact, fungus mold has been scientifically proven to improve the growth of plants by releasing nutrients from the organic material that growing media are typically. We do not sterilize our growing media as microorganisms are an important component of growing media. The fungus mold only becomes a problem if there is an overgrowth. Overgrowth occurs when the soil mulch is too wet. Keep in mind that mold and fungus on growing media or mulch will go away with sunlight and air circulation.
