Mealy bugs

Thank you!!!

Ugh I hate finding a bug infestation 😬 That’s a lot of mealies, but luckily I’ve found them to be easier to get rid of than other pests like thrips. Do you need advice or do you have this covered?

I need some advice! I didn’t realize that I also have them until I saw this post. Would you say this is mealy bugs too?

Hmm I don’t think I see actual bugs on yours 🤔 Do you see any spots that look like a clump of cotton? If not, it might be powdery mildew. I haven’t had to deal with powdery mildew yet myself though, so I’m not certain

No visible bugs. I will look up powdery mildew. Thanks!!

spraying a 1:1 ratio of hydrogen peroxide and water helped me greatly!  
some of the things that can cause it is if water sticks around for too long, or if the airflow isnt great, so making sure the crevices of the leaves stay dry might help prevent it :)

Same! I used bonide horticultural oil and that worked!

Commercial fungicides kills powdery mildew and other fungal growth.

Insecticidal soap spray or a q tip with some rubbing alcohol or systemic granules
