Howdy friends! Not sure if this fits this sub 100%, but your some knowledgeable folks and Im looking for answers.

Fresh peppers from the garden, came out to 600g. I added 12g of koscher salt to bring it up to 2%, into a sterilized jar, cartouche of wax paper and an airlock.

10 days later, it's fermenting for sure but mold at the top. Two questions; 1) its trash for sure, right? 2) whatd I miss?

Thanks ya'll

    3% salt is typical for peppers.

    I’d trash it and start over.

    Locking because this is not canning related. You will have better luck over at r/fermentation
