What are you talking about mold on your roots? That dosent not make any sense?
How can you see your roots to see mold on them. Is it on the surface of the soil. What is your medium?

yes h202. mix it 50/50 with water and spray the soil. Spray do not pour. Get better air movement and /or quit watering so much. The surface of your soil should not remain moist enough to get moldy.

it's mostly growing on the sides... i can see it because i saw something funny so i stuck my finger in there and moved the soil, and it's a green goo between the plant and the pot.... i'll use the h202... i'll do a light mix...

DUDE! next time.....DESCRIBE YOUR SITUATION!!!! DUH!!!
Finally we find out where the mold is!! Of course YOU dont need a picture! But we dont know what the fuck your talkin about!
You need to combat the SOURCE of the mold. You should not have mold down in your pot. I thought you just had some on the surface of your soil. You cant put enough H202 to kill the mold because it will also kill your plant. so...I dont know what else to tell you because i have no idea how you got mold down in your soil. I dont even know if its mold just because you said so.... Thats just not normal. Good luck....

just used h202 on the pant... a lot of green nasty runoff from the bottom indicates that a lot of the green shit is gone.... just to be clear my "pot" is a gallon with the top chopped.... i'm guessing that mold was from light entering through the the gallon... i also cant see anymore... i double ducked taped the bottom of the pot (its that ultra reflective type) will help with the mold situation.... i'll "re-hydrolize" in a few days and analyze the runoff... i thought i could use hydrogen peroxide but i wasn't sure... i just did and it seemed to work.... i didn't put any in my soil, it was more of poured down the sides, so not all that much should reach the roots...

thanx guyz...

+ rep for the responses...

Still getting little pieces of info lol. Now we get that it wasn't even a pot, it was a milk jug lol. That wasn't mold, that was probably algae And you should know that plant roots dont like LIGHT.
Use a real pot. There's your problem.
11 posts before you finally gave the info needed to solve the problem.

i already solved the problem thank you very much.... it's not a milk jug, it's a water gallon....

and i did have a real pot, but that plant hermied... i flowered early in this one, i just need to learn as much as i can since it's my first grow... actually if it grows it works as a pot... i know kids that use cocacola bottles and grow as good a weed as i smoked in amsterdam....
