This is my watermelon peperomia. Can somebody tell me what is going on here? I see white fluffy something around the dead stem on soil. 🧐

Mold ?

### Dondoo52 a commenté le 2025-06-21

Probably mold due to being overwatered. This could be caused by the soil being too compacted, poor drainage, watering too frequently to name a few. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings and maybe add perlite to the soil.

Agreed. You can spray it with some hydrogen peroxide or add some peroxide to the water to kill some of it off
