Need to know if I messed up bad.

[Nbeasty]

I saw that my plant was had leaves wilting at the bottom and I read potassium helps so I mashed banana’s and put it in the soil. It ended up forming these white fungal spots on the top of the soil. Some say it’s good and some say it’s bad. Please advice!!

probably bad. is the plant growing through a bottle cap? looks extremely restricted and thin right there.

 

[Nbeasty]

No it’s just a cap holding it up so it’s not slouching

Better pictures of the plant would help ! Tbh looks like a lot going on with that poor girl And to my knowledge you’re not suppose to just mashup nanners and call it good I think you’re suppose to make almost like a smoothie of water and said banana for your plant

how is it "holding it up"? and why is it slouching?

how is it "holding it up"? and why is it slouching?

My guess it’s a blurple and lack of light the plants stretching and can’t get a good base established

U need to do some research. Or u can continue current tactic, but u will most certainly fail/have a really hard time.

For ur problem, it's its not 2 deep can't u remove it?
Edit: I actually don't have a clue about soil, but I would not want that in my coco.

“With the right setup “

there is no "right setup" just adequate and inadequate

Hence the quotations looking at it from your standpoint ..it’s a double entendre

The bottle cap was just to straighten it out a little, it has a strong base. Just concerned with the white fungus growing on top. I had someone tell me it’s saprophytic Fungus. It’s said to be harmless and actually beneficial but I’m just double checking if it is actually that/

Better image of the fungus below

First off welcome to Riu and what are you feeding and the light you are using wife said the same on the 2 inches get that stuff out add fresh dose it smell like cat piss might have root rot

 

[Nbeasty]

Just switched out the soil to address the root rot. I just put pieces of banana on the top layer of soil without blending it. The pieces of banana started to cause the formation of the fungus. Should I remove the top layer of cocoa with the banana pieces and fungus or remove it? Other than that it’s been growing pretty well

Well I would it is a good to get bugs
