    Thank you for posting to r/plantclinic!

    It looks like you may be asking about a cactus or succulent. In addition to any advice you receive here, please consider visiting r/cactus r/succulents for more specialized care advice.

    A common problem with cacti and succulents is etiolation. This is when a succulent stretches or becomes leggy. Reply with “!etiolation” for advice.

  2. Looks like a mealybug infestation. Nasty little buggers. Isolate the plants that have this or they’ll infect all your others.

    Throw it out. That’s what I’d do, anyway.

    Mealey bugs, just spray with isopropyl alcohol and monitor for a couple of weeks, spray again if needed
    I had an infestation and truly it’s not a big deal if you attend to it properly
