What are these white things on my corn plant?

Question

I went to water it yesterday and noticed them up and down the stem.

@Slyvie · Answer

It looks like mealy bugs:/ get yourself some alcohol and a q-tip, remove those bad boys, and then treat your plant with neem oil!

@Slyvie · Answer

Also make sure to isolate the plant from the rest of your plants

@GoodLecanora84 · Answer

It looks like a case of mealy bugs, scales bugs, or could be a combination with powdery mildew

@GoodLecanora84 · Answer

I would recommend a insecticide soap, a neem product that could be a combination spray for part of the treatment and by all means isolate the plant from your other plants
