That certainly looks suspicious! Do you see any webbing ie. spider mites? Mealy bugs is another possibility. Take a look in all the nooks and crannies!

I magnified to see if shaped like bugs but does not look like bugs. Sprayed off with neem oil easily. Was think possibly sodium crystals as I had been using tap water when I run out of distilled. Have separated from other plants just in case. None of others have this

Looks like powdery mildew, a fungus. Put up a picture of the whole plant showing the soil as well. I would like to see the growth pattern and spread.

Soil has no mildew on it. This was just on the plant. It is now off of it as I sprayed with neem oil just in case a pest.

You should address the conditions in place that promoted fungal growth or it will return. It could be airborne spores that thrived on damp or wet leaves if it did not come from the soil.

I will do that. Thank you. I have never seen it before on any of the plants I have so it was alarming to see. I definitely don’t keep the soil damp in that plant as it is a succulent variety of plant. Separated and keeping an eye on it for return of condition
