this is a harmless fungus — unclear on the cause but it won’t hurt your plant

Are you sure? They look like little white eggs to me

#### eatyacarbsさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

100% sure — but yes they are like little beads

Ohhhh gotcha !! Good to know!!

It could be the moist soil combined with the sun coming through the clear pot. I’d put the clear pot in a decorative pot so it doesn’t get direct sunlight to the soil.

it is in a decorative pot no worries!!

#### sammrさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

then it’s just the moisture from the soil! i got the same thing in my monstera but it’s harmless!

#### plantmotherさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

I have these too and hasn’t caused any harm. Does anyone know how to get rid of it though?

#### plantmotherさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

I poked it with my bamboo stick and it disappeared lol, I imagine it’s related to overwatering as the internet said they can turn into mushrooms

#### Bay Area Plant Momさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

remove the top layer of soil and sprinkle with cinnamon to prevent it from coming back

#### Abi’s Plantsさんが2024-09-10に返信しました

Thank you!!

it’s saprophytic fungi! you might end up with mushrooms next 🥰
