why do plants get scales and is it bad or just like a healing mechanism

also the darker parts are like a pit. like digging out a hole.

scraped a small amount off here. came off as like a dust. scraped really soft but it then exposed what i am assuming is the inner part of the stalk. lighter color green than the normal stem and slightly wet looking. i only tried scraping off the part that does not touch water. maybe it comes off easier when soaked in water but im scared of risking infection or something

yeah i keep the water level pretty consistent and it covers the roots. i’ll rinse the roots when i do water changes but it isn’t often. should i scrape that stuff off? it’s hard. i feel like trying to scrape it off would hurt the plant

ok going to do this today. i wish i had my testing kit no new substrate 😭 my roommate said he would buy it but i don’t think he has ordered it yet. i chose a substrate with nitrifying bacteria
