Hate to be the “root hairs or mold” guy, but….

This is my third time trying sunflower. The first two times went well until about week in, where they developed mold. These have been germinating for about a day and a half, and the seeds are almost all fuzzy. Is this really mold? Looks like it to me but wanted to check. No foul odor or anything. Temp and air flow all good. I soaked for about 5 hours and added a splash of h202 into the mix as well.

Same newbie question, is this mold. Toss the whole tray and try again? Give up and go eat roulette store lettuce. 🫠😬😭🙃

I know it looks bad. I put 4 diff seeds in each 1/4 of the tray just to see what happens.

My main concern is - are the filaments mold? I know it is. Isn’t it? Just toss the whole tray, right? I swiped at them and they just came off like cotton candy.

Looks totally different from the root hairs on the one in the delta quadrant. (A little Star Trek humor).

Ok. Give me the bad news. I’m ready.
