But if molds and yeasts are not a health concern, they are a quality and business concern. Mold and yeast prevention is fairly simple, when a fungal spore lands on a plant, it will either grow or remain inert. Inert spores collect according to their concentration in the outside air, air exchanges and interior airflows, and this accumulation along with active growth of organisms can be measured in several ways. Preventive mold and yeast controls start with facility equipment, using microwave radiation treatment to remove unwanted molds, yeast and other bacteria.

Microwave drying and heating process can also reduce the plant moisture content which high water- activity levels are favorable to mold and yeast prevention. Therefore, microwave radiation treatments ensure that products will pass all microbial tests and have an extended shelf life.

Microwave radiation treatment is used for dealing with cannabis, rose bud, flower tea, food powdery material, packaged products etc. Molds and yeasts are a part of plant cultivation, and cultivators should inform themselves about the organisms as well as the threats they actually pose to consumers.

Proper microwave heating temperature and enough time assure the expected final result.
