Be sure to scrape/remove the moldy stuff.

Another idea is to give the plants a "shot" of whiskey. Yes, whiskey. Dilute it half/half with water and make sure you get it all over the top of the soil.

And do let the plants dry out more between waterings.

Your plants are probably being over watered. Let your plants dry out a bit inbetween waterings. I would scrape the mold off of your soil and toss. Something you might benefit from is brewing a cup of Chamomile tea. Then dilute it with water. Water you plants with this solution. Chamomile is a natural fungicide. :)  I hope this helps!

Ok, I'll trash the moldy soil.  I just wondered since I put moldy bread in there . . .  but I do worry if it is soil.

I'd trash it....I'm not sure you'd want to put the moldy soil in your compost bin when it's already nice and warm and moist and ripe for bacteria growth. I wouldn't be sure that if you were to keep it, you weren't unwittingly contaminating other things with some sort of fungus. I'd rather err on the site of caution and just get rid of it! The plants would probably be fine. It may be that the soil is too moist.
