  • Update: So I may have gone postal… After doing some searching online a couple people mentioned insecticidal soap. Well, I happened to have some on-hand and figured screw it. Whatever lives, lives.

    I’ll leave them in there for a day and see if any plants survived (god I hope so…). Surfaces have all be sprayed with alcohol and all the substrate + nursery pots have been tossed, with the rest soaking in dishsoap.

    Here’s hoping I didnt just murder all my new babies. I didn’t see a single mealy on any of them so no idea which plant(s) was the culprit.














  • It just looks like normal growth to me. I don’t have a khroniana black so I can’t be certain for sure though. Honestly if it were me, I’d just let it do it’s thing and intervene if the plant’s health starts to decline. You could spray it with a fungicidal spray if you’re really worried.

    The mold on the pon is harmless to plants, I get it on some of mine since it’s so humid. I had to really increase the drainage on my soil (equal parts perlite, potting soil, and orchid bark), and the bonsai mix I use for my semi hydro develops the mold if I fill the reservoire up too high.
