Sorry they look so ratty, but they will pick up. If you aren't already, you may want to bag it for a week or so until the roots have a chance to establish themselves. With the right light they will get that orangeish color.

I noticed this weird white stuff on and around the plants. Is it mold?

The stuff in the first pic and some in the last does look like mold. In the last, on the plant to the right, it's just the Filiformis fluff. Whatever ya call it.

It may be fungus gnat larvae webbing. The right side of the second picture is just what the plant does.

Will the webbing harm the plant? Or can I just leave it and wait until the larvae become adults?

As long as it is hanging out on the moss and not the plants, it should be okay. If it becomes a problem You can soak mosquito bits in water and then use that to water the plants.

Google it. It is a natural insecticide that kills larvae.

Oh. I thought you were telling me to water my plants with pieces of mosquitos.

I didn't know you were referring to a brand.
I'll keep watching the soil for now.

When I unbag the plant, do I need to do it slowly?

Here’s a picture of the plant:

Personally, I put the bag on at night, and then take it off during the day.

When you unbag the plant, it's better to do it in stages.
Once a week, poke two holes in the bag, this will get it used to lower and lower humidity. After about four to six weeks, you should be able to lose the bag altogether.

That's actually the opposite of what you should do if you're trying to keep humidity up.
Relative humidity is affected by temperature. The lower the temperature (nighttime), the higher the relative humidity. Higher temp (daytime), lower RH.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

How big should the holes be?
