Dark Spots on wood after sodium hydroxide

I’ve not noticed much mold myself on the decks that have already had TWP on them.

I just finished one that had been stained two different times with TWP and they wanted to stick with it again. It’s the one @marinegrunt gave me some tips on cleaning.
It’s the one I asked for some help here:

I’ll swing back by the job site and get an “after” pic and post it. It turned out really nice.
