I can't really see any white powder specs, but does it wipe off? Could it be a pesticide spray residue?

I'm not able to make it out either... does it look like water droplets dried and left mineral residue?

I agree with the others. It might be fertilizer or pesticide residue. Try wiping it with lemon juice and see if it goes away.
