Aha! Excellent. I actually have a cup of chamomile tea cooling right now. I knew it was good against damping-off fungus... didn't realize it would help mold.

It's harmless to the plant and it's health. It's not pretty, though. I generally scrape the stuff off when I see it. You want to dial back on the watering frequency, but not at the expense of plant health because the "infection" is harmless.

Hmm... unfortunately it's too late for that :( Hopefully this will grow and not give up on me. Finished work after pruning/ repotting is attached. Do I have to water it now or wait for a weak or two? My guess is I would expect to see some leaf shedding over the next week or so, but it should stop after that? Also ran out of perlite so bottom half of the soil is 70% perlite and top half is 50%. Top 1 inch is less than 30% and have to get some extra perlite and re-mix in that top layer. Thanks again for all the advice. Btw I got a bunch of small cuttings!!! :-) I want to try and propagate at least a couple of them. Am I able to leave the cuttings out (indoor) for a week and do this next weekend? Or put them in water or something in the meantime? I am guessing same procedure same soil mix same watering interval smaller pot (terracotta) would do. Is that correct?

Fungi and molds are normal parts of a soils make-up. A few are harmful, but usually those fungaluglies only raise their heads when soil conditions lean heavily toward water retention being excessive. Monitoring your soil's moisture level with a wood dowel rod sharpened in a pencil sharpener or skewer will be helpful in avoiding over-watering and soggy soils. You're probably under-fertilizing, btw. Also, if you're not already watering so you flush the soil when you water, ytou should do that on a regular basis - say every 4th or 5th time you water. This accomplishes 2 things: it keeps the level of mineral salts in the soil low, which facilitates water/nutrient uptake, and it prevents the ratio of nutrients in the soil solution, each to all the others, from getting so badly skewed that the plant has difficulty taking up nutrients because of an excess of another. These created shortages are called antagonistic deficiencies. The plant looks good. You've done well to keep it so nice indoors. Tip - keep a close eye out for spider mites - ivy's nemesis. Al
