# I just reported my ficus last week and decided to put rocks on top…

_Gepostet von Dee am 2023-06-27_

I just reported my ficus last week and decided to put rocks on top because gnats tend to love her no matter how many times I repot, dry the roots out, etc. anyway, I just checked to see how the soil was doing and noticed this bright yellow mold. It actually was on my other ficus too but we had layered it with Spanish moss, so I thought it was that and removed the top layer. Any insights / tips on how to handle for this one?
