If it’s fuzzy mold, if it’s not fuzzy then it’s mineral buildup.

Do you mainly bottom water? Bottoming watering is great but if you don’t water from the top occasionally, it can cause mineral/salt buildup on top of soil.

I water from the top. Any idea how to tell the difference between fuzzy mold and mineral buildup?
