That’s roots. Just give it time

The first picture is in the stratum and the second picture is outside, but the outside part looks that is growing roots 😅

Those root looking things are ummm…. Roots 😬

The outside stem has aerial roots growing. They pull humidity from the air

Add SuperThrive plant vitamins to the water, per directions. It helps generate a lot of roots.
