    Can you get a few more pics? It’s hard to tell when zoomed in. Could they be mushrooms? Don’t give up it gets easier and better I promise!

    But another tip is when purchasing a plant check all up on it and under leaves etc where most pests like to hide. You for sure don’t wana bring one home with pests. He otherwise looks healthy though. Hoping it’s just mushrooms.

      Well in this pic it does kinda look like eggs. I’m really not sure though. For sure get rid of them. It looks like pearl lite almost but doubt it would be stuck to the leaves like that if so.

      Yeah I’m guessing eggs. I’d get a napkin to pull those off and smoosh. That’s just me cause I ain’t chancing it with pests!😬😂

    Really hard to say. I’m not a pro for sure so hate to say wrong but it kind of looks like it could be mushrooms but could be eggs too. I’d scoop em out just incase it’s some kind of pest eggs. You can use like a little plastic spoon or something to scoop em out with

    Hard to see. Could be spent lizard or gecko eggs. Pull off the pot. Pop out the ‘egg/mushrooms’ and carefully examine everything. If hard, it’s likely perlite chunks or gecko eggs. If spongy, it’s likely mushrooms 🍄 or bits of packing styrofoam peanuts. If crawling, kill it before it grows. You have to be brave as a plant parent. 😄🍀🍀🍀
