Moringa seedlings with white stuff on stems

(1/2) > >>

Daintree:
What is going on? I think it might be some kind of mold.
I have positively ruled out spider mites and mealy bugs. This substance has no "critters" in it, at least that are moving...




Daintree:
No ideas?
I still don’t know what it is/was, but I sprayed it with Consan, at the same strength I use to prevent damping off and mildew, and it seems to have taken care of it.
Hmmmm.

Artocarpus:
Could they be mealy bugs? Picture is a little blurry. If so you can fine water spay and wipe them off. Many other remedies also with chemical, or oil soap and water.

Daintree:
No, not mealy bugs for sure. The picture is not actually that blurry, just a very narrow focus, if you look at the stem it is in focus. The white stuff is just sort of foamy and makes it look blurry. I took the photos with my USB microscope.
I am leaning towards some sort of mold, since the Consan seems to be working.

ScottR:
More bugs all the time Carolyn, I can't stay ahead of them in G.H. That one is bazar!
