Watermelon wine problem???

[PatrickShiflet]

I am planning on racking my first attempt at watermelon wine tomorrow and noticed a white substance on the top of my secondary fermenter. Is this mold? What should I do?

Just remove that and don't transfer. Could be a wax and pulp combination. It may fall to bottom of carboy when touched with a siphon tube. Try to remove as much as possible before attempting to rack.
