It’s watering day and I just noticed mold (?) on my plant. I’m going to replace the dirt but how do I avoid this next time.

Try mixing a bit of vermiculite in the top layer of the soil to aerate!

More air circulation, and slightly less water!

bottom water more often and cinnamon! (yes, on the top layer of the dirt) good luck!

also, do a little investigating but typically no need to get rid of all of the dirt, just scoop out the molding patch if it’s only the top layer.

water less often and replace the soil with a well draining mix, especially for succulents. more airflow will also help
