Hello all! Does anybody know what causes a white powdery substance to grow on the stems of my african violets? It's been there for a while now (quite a few months maybe) and I couldn't stand it anymore yesterday so I took them out of the dirt and I washed them all off. While I was at it, I repotted the babies into small pots. From two medium sized pots, I produced thirteen baby african violets. Never felt so overwhelmed before. Anyway, my real concern was the weird white substance
growing. I wonder what caused it and how would I prevent it from attacking my baby av's. Thanks for reading this.
