This is a great excercise and was great fun. Check out how these creative gourd artists approach this challenge.

- Mold Resources
Mold Resources, informational materials on mold and health issues.
- Mold Summary
Mold, the Buzz word of the 21st century. It is so common, and mold related, sick building related issues seem to be more and more a common occurance these days, yet it seems to be the realtively new kid on the block. That being the case, it also seems to be the most under studied, under researched, and under estimated of health issues out there today.
- Mold Types
There are many varieties of mold, in fact depending on where you read, you can find figures from 50,000 to in excess of 200,000 different varieties of molds. There are general species, and then varieties within those specie, just like canines include everything from wolves to Pomeranians. Similarily, there are a wide variety of mold families like Stachybotris, but there may be 20,000 varieties of Stachy.
- Mold, A Comprehensive Look
Molds are common in the world, it is what turns bio mass back into mineral substance, in otherwords the recycling process.
- Mold, What is it?
A Brief general description of mold.
- Molds
Molds are common, but little is known about molds as far as health is concerned. In growing and curing gourds, mold is a common issue, and one you should be aware of and treat with caution if you intend on growing and crafting. Mold is natures recycler, but the last thing you want is for your body to experience stages of decomposition before your time!
