Does anyone else have a mold-problem? My flaming katy (pictured) has never had mold… until now. Some of my plants in the surrounding area have the same type, are the spores just spreading or am I overwatering?

I only just started getting into house plants in the fall. So I don’t know why you didn’t get fungus before and are now. I’ve had mold and fungus gnats. Scrape the mold off. Mix a little cinnamon in w the top of the soil. Cinnamon is a natural anti fungal. I’ve also had to start having a fan on for several hours a day or overnight bc we seem to need better airflow in our house.
