Help!!!  
My neon pothos has all this white fuzz. And the leaves are getting more spotty. Any advise? I have no idea what to do. Is my plant doomed? 😩

The white fuzzy stuff is a mould that’s pretty harmless to plants it just likes to sit on top soil when it’s really moist, as for the spots it could be fungal, do you mist at all?

Can the fuzz be removed?  
I don’t mist. I only did it once but read in other posts that it’s best not to, so I stopped.

Yeah good misting doesn’t help a lot, and it can be removed, remove the top soil and sprinkle cinnamon on top of the soil this is because cinnamon is a natural fungicide :)

I’ve heard that the cinnamon makes mold too sometimes tho, it maybe be depending on conditions

I tend to have that problem when I water too much or when the soil stays wet for too long and isn’t draining well.

#### Sydnei ha respondido el 2024-02-15

same. take that top layer off, sprinkle with cinnamon, and bottom water only when the dirt dries.

Thank you!
