anyone know what the white fuzz might be?? it was on the two plants i checked, and i had a fifth one that didnt fit with its siblings that was in another pot, and that one didn't have any fuzz on it  
it gets direct light from a grow light, and last time i watered it was mid february. i have it in a well draining chunky mix. any suggestions are appreciated!

i really hope not D: it doesnt look like bugs, but just a bunch of fuzz or dust which is weird, but ive never dealt with them before so 🤷‍♀️

It’s white root rot! Try water and neem oil or water and baking soda. (Few drops of neem oil/tablespoon of baking soda to a gallon of water. Mix and then water accordingly)!!! It helps balance the pH of the leaf surface so it’s less likely fungi will grow!

Of course, it’s really common if over saturating the soil and going a while before watering or even from temperature changes in the soil!
