Help! moldy potting soil

Other than scraping moldy dirt off the top of potted plants, is there any
treatment for moldy potting soil? I just potted a bunch of plants and
there's mold on the top of every one
of them. The soil was moist in the bag, but didn't smell so I didn't think
anything was wrong with it.I've read somewhere that hydrogen peroxide or
bleach solutions might do the trick, but am a bit afraid they might also
damage the plants' roots.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Lobo

Sulpher powder. Go to your local nursery, they ought to sell it there.
Follow the instructions on the bag.
