Hi
Im newer to the forums and I have been having a white buildup on some of my plants soil and pots.. it doesnt seem to be the same as the crusty mineral deposits.. and then.. i realized that it all seemed to happen a couple of months after I repoted some plants with new soil and.. one of my cats started having rapid sneezing fits.. and me headaches.. I moved as many as I could outside ( no balcony and not much room) and then I watered a couple of days later.. and boom!! A ton of these cute little mushrooms... all over some ofthe plants..I think read hydrogen peroxide and dish soap in a big thing of water over and over will kill the fungus etc...I cleaned as well as I could and even got a air purifier.. so two days ago I had to move every plant back in doors.. they are painting our buildings. And i laid sheets etc..and scrubbed pots on the sides that I found the white thicker film and watered with hydro and dawn again.. they were bone dry.. and my place is very cool but they are near the window and today a mushrrom and I removed it as deep as I could and then removed the top layer.. and once again.. scratchy throat etc... not sure what to do.. I cant replace all the soil and pots right now and I dont know how to do it without getting spores all over me and well just everywhere.
