"I have about 10 lbs of chestnuts stratified in my fridge &they are
getting a mold that has lots of red color in it. I even washed them
off once &put them back in bags with peat "
You put them in peat or you put them in spagnum moss?
Peat has lost some or all of its antimold & antibacterial property.
Put them in spagnum. Maybe compost is better than peat if
you can't get ahold of real spagnum.
