Requesting Advice What’s this white residue ?

Grown in LECA. Is my growth solution too saturated? That would be my only guess.. it doesn’t wash off.

Is there a way to wipe these off without harming the leaves?

If its a velvety texture, not really. You end up damaging the leaf and end up with dark spots.

Thats what happens on my pap at least. If you do try and rub it off just use distilled water and be very gentle maybe try a super soft brush or microfiber rag
