Tried staining page edges with coffee, got mold instead

I soaked the edges of a cheap paperback in cold brew for 6 hours and it looked great at first. Two weeks later there were green spots growing between the pages. Has anyone found a way to prevent mold when using organic stains?

Well, you accidentally made a science experiment instead of a fancy book.
