Could be guttation if it's wet and not sticky! Its when a plant gets wet and can't sweat it out easily, so it creates a ball/patch of water

It's more like crusty

#### Stephanie respondió el 2025-02-13

Doesn't rub off

Can you get a better picture of the white stuff? I know it can be hard sometimes but when you enlarge your picture the white stuff gets all blurry.

#### Stephanie respondió el 2025-02-13

It's actually clear it just shows white in the picture

Sorry I tried several pictures and this was the best

### KJM comentó el 2025-02-13

Hmm thanks for trying I don't think I have an answer for this.

#### Stephanie respondió el 2025-02-13

Thanks for trying.

Idk what it is, but I've had it on some of mine before and just ignored it. As far as I know the plant was fine.

#### Stephanie respondió el 2025-02-13

Ok thanks. I just didn't know if it was bad or not
