Default Please help with popcorn plants

Corn likes warmth, a lot of sun and plenty of nitrogen. The OP is missing
at least the first two of those. Not to mention possible poor drainage. At
a bare minimum shut the window! Then wait for longer days.

The white material looks like salt or sugar. It can't be wiped off as it
seems to be in the main veins of the leaves. But not all leaves have it
- only 1 or 2 on every plant. It seems like a problem, as it causes the
leaves to break (they stay green and alive though). If it can't be wiped
off, may it still be a fungus?

And unfortunately - no neighbours who grow corn.


OK, I'm stumped. Charlie, Rachel, Ann, enigma, Om, Emilie, Bill, Joe,
come on, we have the reputation of wrecked gardens to uphold. Any ideas?
