Didn't clean my humidifier this weekend and noticed this on the leaves.

Usually it forms circular colonies then expands, so there's hope, but also does look like it in general. keep one of the leaves, maybe outside and take a picture now and tomorrow, if the white stuff 'grew' in any way, you know it's mold. A scope might help too... a good close look should see the 'hyphea' - thread like structures coating things. use a google image search for a comparison - probably see a nightmare example in image search, so expect something less severe looking. the residue certain humidifiers cause is possible... if you use the type with a wick and forced air through it, that type doesn't deposit the white residue. The ones that spew out a visible vapor, do.

erry like WPM. but as number said some humdifers like cool mist ones that use ultrasonic to vaporize the air also vape out the minerals in the water and they can deposit on the leaves. Can avoid this by using distilled or RO water. or a different style of humidifier. granted it is that vs WPM.

Looks like powdery mildew to me bro. You can try a milk spray mix about 1 part milk to 9 parts water and mist the affected leaves when lights are off. I tried it myself once and it actually worked great, stopped the spread completely. Still, clean your humidifier well and keep good airflow so it doesn’t come back.
