# What is this? I was about to fertilise my golden Pothos and saw all…

_Geplaatst door Darwin op 2024-10-05_

What is this?  
I was about to fertilise my golden Pothos and saw all of this white cloudy puff, I started look at the other plants in my room and all but one have it, the one shown is the worst case.  
Is it mould?? Cause the one with the most of it is in the darker area.

To eradicate spray the surface of the soil with hydrogen peroxide and/or neem oil. I’m always using neem on the soil surface to combat pests as well.

In addition to that, try to let your pants dry out more before watering. This normally happens to me when the soil stays wet for too long. I also keep the fans on in the rooms where plants are to combat this.

When you upsize you may need to add more amendments for better drainage if this is happening on multiple plants
