I just moved my plants into the little greenhouse last Friday -- 5 days ago. The herbs had been hanging in the sun and were doing great. Today I stayed a little longer in the house and noticed some white mold/mildew looking stuff on top of the dirt on two herbs ! I scraped it out, put them back in the house and turned on a second fan--and then inspected all the plants. It has been humid, but sunny until yesterday and today is rainy. I'm not sure if the plants were just too wet when I put them in there ?? This stuff grew fast. Is there something else I should do or put on them? I hate to use chemicals - especially on herbs.

I had added two new herbs over the weekend, but they don't have the white mold. As I was standing there though I did notice the dill had a green worm on it -- eew ! Where did that come from -- I evicted it.

Any ideas on the white mold/mildew would be greatly appreciated -- I'm a novice and need all the help I can get !

Thanks much.
