Depends, it can be the fuzziness of the plant which is natural or it can be fungus. Only a picture will tell

I agree, a picture will tell if it's natural or a fungus

Perfectly natural. It looks fine. Mine looked just like that.

the pics are real fuzzy, so it would help if you didn't shake the camera. please take a better shot so you can get more accurate help

Cant really tell even with those pictures. But you're plant doesnt seem to be in any immediate danger looking at how green the leaves are. If you're still in fear of fungus just pot the plant and keep an eye on it. Fungus will spread, the fuzziness will not. Pot it outside if you can as the sun's UV will kill the fungus **IF** it is fungus.

That is normal awgaupp. The growth point always have an almost cotton like fuzz. You're good to go.

If you can take some of the fuzziness off with a toothpick or cotton swab, etc. Its mold. If its just there its the crown/rhizome of the plant.
