So basically to keep it short, I went to burp my buds as usual when it came to my attention a jar of some small scrapy buds had been misplaced and gone unattended for about a week. To my surprise not only had this jar gone unattended for way too long, but the buds were not even dry! No matter, these small scraps are moldy. I know what that small white fuzzy stuff is. So I left the contents inside the jar and completely removed the the entire thing and placed it remotely in a paper bag for now.

My question is: could the brief discovery of moldy buds possibly transmit spores through the air to either my other dried buds curing? Or worse, the way I reacted by instantly carrying the jar out of the room, I did it so immediately that I didn’t even have the lid back on the jar until I had already left the room! I still have buds hanging in the open as well as a fresh plant in the room that I walked past with the moldy bud. My concern is that the free convection in and out of the jar as it travels out the room, is that enough to spray mold spores all over everything? Is the room contaminated? If I were to proceed to open another jar, would I further contaminate things??

Please help me as I don’t understand how contagious mold can be. I realize if the buds were completely dry before going into a jar, this wouldn’t have happened. Also the moldy jar didn’t have an RH pack...
