it means the soil is healthy! take it as a compliment from your plant. you can pull them out or leave them, it’s up to you.

The spores can come in the potting soil or blow in. They grow on moist organic matter in the soil. It’s not harmful to the plant, as Autumn stated. But, it could indicate excess moisture if they grow too much. Excess moisture can lead to fungus gnats and other issues. Let the top soil dry down before watering. You can just pull out these, if desired. 🍀🪴
