Friend or Foe?....

found this just a little bit ago and don't know what it is... i have my suspicions that it may be the equivalent of having crab grass... any idea what it is?

A little hard to tell, but it looks like Majano to me. Make a slurry out of kalk paste and use a syringe to apply it directly to its mouth.

no way to determine what it is? my concern also is that it IS majano....right now it is maybe the size of a pencil erasure and has no stalk on it. looks to be a dark greenish color

Shine a flashlight on it or use a flash. Really hard to tell with grainy pics.
