Hey Guys! My soil keeps developing saprophytic fungi (in a white ball form). I have it in a few plants and have treated with hydrogen peroxide but it’s not going away. I use a chunky aroid mix and moss poles(and I’m usually an under-water) im not sure why it keeps coming back. They are all happy and healthy, but I’d appreciate any tips or tricks would be very helpful!! Thank you all!!

My poor coleus plant that I got in July this year. Welp I did not know that I was supposed to snip off those flowers. Per YouTube videos, the plant might not bounce back well at this point ....

Is it time to give up and just to get a new one next year?

What kind of steps do you take to prepare your plants for winter? Personally I trim dead leaves, check for pests, see who needs reporting in spring and dial back watering.

I didn't know this but apparently if you have two plants in your pot, one might get the nutritients and the other might die.
