    Hello

    I have had this problem with my greenhouse soil for the last couple of years - and it seems to be getting worse.
    I have this mold-looking stuff in the soil, it looks like fine dust on top of the soil - see attached photos.
    Can anyone offer any advice?
    Thanks

    Just going to move this to the fungi forum... I suspect that is what it is, but I'm not sure.

    I agree with Daniel, but beyond that, microscopy would be required for identification, unless there happens to be a greenhouse soil expert in the forum who recognizes the gross morphology.
