I can’t get a good picture but I have 2 cactus’ in a ceramic pot with just one drainage hole and a plug. After I bottom water and the excess water drains I plug the bottom. Probably a bad idea. Is this mold? I know what to change the pot, any suggestions
Yeah plugging the pot, especially with succulents is not a great idea. If you want advice on repotting, I would remove the plants and soil from the pot, wash the pot in hot soapy water and then after it dries spray hydrogen peroxide around the drain hole lip, and the bottom of the pot. Let it air dry and repot your cacti.

Looks like a fungus. I'd definitely repot. Even to just remove them, sanatize the pot and plant with 1:3 peroxide, and repot. Keep the plug out, as it's staying way to wet
