I’ve never used fertilizer before, and tried fertilizing my lemon balm plant recently. Today I noticed these white spots - is this salt or something else? What should I do?

    I’ve never seen this happen from fertilizing a plant. Could it be a fungus?

    There’s something like this that happens near Arizona area. Not sure where you’re located but could be the same thing. If those are fuzzy and powdery when you touch them, it might be a tiny insect called a cixiid (family Cixiidae, pronounced roughly six-ee-iday). They say to use soapy water to spray them off (if it’s them).
