Spiderwebs on my sapodilla’s soil?? Help!!
« on: October 08, 2020, 03:07:09 PM »
So about 3 weeks ago i repotted one of my sapodillas. However this week i noticed some kind of spiderwebs or white fungi developing on the topsoil, which is new to me. Should i be concerned about this? Do i isolate this plant? How do i treat it if i need to?

Thanks for any help
,William

I’m not exactly sure what that is, but I also occasionally see this on my soils too. I think it’s a fungus, may not be harmful. I usually just stir up the top soil a bit to allow some aeration and full sunlight usually gets it to disappear, in my experience.

Looks like mycelium. Can be beneficial by bringing moisture and nutrients to the roots. Usually a sign of healthy soil, but sometimes can be parasitic.

Thank Lord! Hopefully it does some good to the soil, hopefully someone else will shine some light in here to be sure.

Thanks, William
