hi, i have a new string of pearls (abt 3 weeks) and it has mold. i’ve never watered it. normally i’d scoop the top layer and sprinkle a little cinnamon but unsure in this case. any recommendations?

Repot and make sure there’s a lot of drainage available and put in a sunny area. The soil is probably organic which can cause molding. Make sure there’s air circulation after watering to help with stagnant water.
