Good morning! Does anyone have any idea why roots sticking out of the bottom of the pot could have fuzzy stuff (I’m assuming mold) on it? It’s on my snake plant..

Fuzzy stuff is still the root. However if it smells funny it could be root rot or the minerals in your water draining to the bottom so it looks white

You can always clean roots with hydrogen peroxide then rinse them off if you’re worried, it won’t hurt the plant. But If it’s white then it might just be a mineral build up from unfiltered water.
