    Why don't you put up some images, it may not be mold it could just be salt build up from your nutrients.

    Looks like algae to me, it's really not an issue. You could always cover the tops of your pebbles with some kind of light barrier and it would stop. Or as the plants get bigger and bushier it will stop.

    Once the foliage is wider than the pot, the algae will die due to lack of light. Then, most likely, springtails will eat the dead algae.
