White stuff on smart pot

[patecatl]

Not necessarily a plant problem but I’m just curious what this white stuff is on the bottom of the smart pot. Plant doesn’t seem to have any issues but I’m a little worried it could affect it. I’m using soil I mixed and giving just filtered water.

Not using any fertilizer. Just plain filtered water

I get that on mine too. I assume it’s residual salt.

Unless it’s RO water there will still be salts of some kind, even in small amounts, and over time can build up. Also could be from whatever soil/soilless mix you’re using too.

Salt deposits .... it coming from the soil.

Is what it is .

So it’s fine right? And normal?

 

[Budzbuddha]

Yes ... just a deposit buildup .
