Emersed Plant grow - jelly problem!!

[kire.laz]

Hi to everyone,
I'm growing HC emmersed, but yesterday in one of the pots I saw some kind of jelly balls (exactly same as snail eggs) There is no contact with snails, so those are not snail eggs + the appear sudendly (HC is in there about 3 weeks) I replant the HC, but today I saw the same thing in the other pot!!! I think is some kind of fungy, but I'm not sure what kind - it around HC's leafs (mostly) but I notice some of it on the bare sand!!
What's that and how can I treat that without loosing HC???

Thanks to all

Pictures would help a lot.

Flooding the HC for an hour in a stronger solution of excel would help, that or spot treat and rinse within 5 minutes.

It may be an issue with humidity being too high/low. Many mold and bacteria problems are this way.

What's your substrate?

Thank you for your reply,
the substrate is clay + garden soil (as base substrate) and river sand above it (to keep everything clean) I'm making everything as usual - I open the cover every 3-4 days and I spray water above HC to refresh it and give it some water! I remove all of "the thing " manually so I can't post picture

Can you give me some advice on growing HC faster- it's growing too slow?? What type of soil should I use??

Thank you for all answers

For emerged growth I wasn't picky at all. I've used nothing but miracle gro potting soil, and I keep it very damp with used tank water.

Adaptation takes time; usually around a month to start turning around well.

You might be having nutrient issues with that layer of sand on top; HC has some very small, fine roots.
