On my first hive check of the season (February 19th), I noticed a couple of pollen cells that had mold on them. There were maybe 35 total cells with the white mold on them, ALL of them out the outer side of the outmost frames in the honey/pollen frames that fed my bees through the winter.
Chip says, no problem- it happens with our wet winters here. The only concern would be chalkbrood, which begins on brood cells near the center of a super, which these were not.
