hey i just went to test the soil of this peperomia to see if it was ready to water and found what looks to be mould, want to make sure it’s nothing more severe…? would repotting with new soil solve my problem?

I would absolutely repot her and give her roots a heavy duty hydrogen peroxide bath! Spray her stems down as well and maybe give her chunkier soil

Mold usually isn’t harmful to your plant. If your plant is happy/healthy in its current situation I’d start with sprinkling some cinnamon on the top layer and switching to bottom watering to allow the top layer to dry out a bit.

Sometimes mold can be helpful but just incase i would definitely repot her and clean her pot!!
