Should I be concerned for disease or pests??

The brown indented spots were starting before I left, came back five days ago and they’re worse. What’s the white stuff (I can easily remove it with my finger).

Could be mealybugs, but I really don’t know. Beautiful plant though! 🪴🪴

hmm jades aren’t usually susceptible to mealys or spider mites (never say never but not likely…) I’m not sure about the white but it appears to be getting a ton of sun. Does this live outdoors? I would remove the damaged leaves and give it a good rinse in the sink or shower for next watering day.
