Re: In what conditions does mold form quickest?
Hello! I hope you and your daughter are doing well. Mold is able to form quickest in extremely damp, humid, and wet conditions. In order for mold to be able to grow further and spread, it requires water, and moisture. This link, written by the CDC provides more information about mold and its growth. Hope this was helpful

Thanks for the useful information, now we are thinking about how to adapt it to our project and describe it in an accessible language for children.
