Help!! My creeping thyme seedlings are showing signs of white fungus. I'm currently trying to dry out the soil the best I can. How do I treat the fungus before it kills off the seedlings?

Try spraying them with a fungicide.

Thanks Lucy! Do you think it's just a general fungicide that may work?

I would start with something very general like copper sulfate. If that doesn't fix them or you would rather not chance getting it wrong, post some photos and we'll try to help.

Some fugus don't kill plants as they're living on the organics in the soil. Are your little plants damping off?

I don't think that one will harm the plants but if it worries you, copper sulfate will kill it. A sprinkle of cinnamon might even kill it.

Awesome! Thank you, Lucy…I'll get something on them
I'm a over-waterer so I gotta pay attention to that with these little seedlings
