Do I have a fungus growing or is it a salt deposit?

    I'm growing a couple of seedlings in solo cups when I noticed one of them had these white spots, I'm using canna professional soil and I water every one-two days, should I open a little hole and remove it? Thanks :)

    I don't know about the salt deposit, but I wouldn't suggest planting in a clear container like that, If I remember right light can be really damaging to root growth

    Right now I use two cups one clear to check on roots and a colored one to prevent light on the roots, you think it is a salt deposit I removed it anyway

    Probably, just keep an eye on it and make sure no other ones show up

    Fungal mycelium is typical in living soils.  They help to break down organic material into plant available nutrients.
     
    Leave it.  It's supposed to be there...
