When I came to use my deck boards I found that some had a white fuzzy mould growing on the underside. I didn't incorporate these into the deck, but I would like to know whether it should be a concern or can it just be wiped off and treated with decking sealer and protector? I would like to use the remaining timber to build a nice planter or two.
Deck board fungus - a threat?

Bad storage practice at the suppliers. As the decking will be treated this mould is likely only growing on the moisture that sits on the surface. shouldn't be a problem. You can re-use it as a planter no probs. Remember to treat all cut ends though.
