Green stuff in soil

I have some weird green stuff in my soil. Is it mold? Everything is growing fine but I obviously don't want my grow molding over. It's most visible in the perlite so I just posted a picture of that.

Hi what is your watering behavior? there is a very simple trick when you give water. Let it dry nicely, then lift the pot up and remember how easy it is. Then pour it and lift the pot back up and notice how heavy it is now. The next time you water, you will only do it again if the pot is as light as when you started. As a pure beginner, you can also use a scale and note the weight ፦). Keep carrying as before 👍 Your plant is beautiful

soil? let the top dry before watering (if already doing that... just inevitable or try longer?). it is algea on your perlite. it's surface only, wont grow deep because it requires light to live. worse for a water tank, of course. steals O2 in that context.

To me it looks like algae growing on your perlite. This is a common when your medium has not had proper time to dry out before you water. Let the soil dry for some time till you see it start to peel from the edges of your pot. Then water again. Repeat this cycle a few time and it should go away! Cheers and happy growing!
