So I'm currently acclimating two Neps, my Miranda and my Spectabilis x Hamata using the bag method. I was told a few different things and research can't answer a specific question I had. Which is how do you keep them from molding while acclimating? There's so much condensation from the humidity in the bags (they have holes and I've opened them about an inch after 3 days). But there currently isn't any mold, but I do know it can happen so wanna take steps to avoid.
I've had someone tell me to open the bags and wipe them out but I feel that that resets the acclimating. Then I was told to have the opening pointing at a fan for airflow. Then I read when researching that you shouldn't do that it's a mess lol I just don't want to risk them growing mold while in the bags. Otherwise I feel very confident now about taking care of them after the the acclimation period
What they look like after I got home just now but I'm too nervous to open it
