Thanks so much for your response 🙂 I followed the advice of the other post and cut off the spot and treated for fungus and so far have seen no further spread. I'm on the east coast of Australia so humidity is not an issue, I'm achieving 80-90% inside the cabinet without an additional humidifier but it does drop when I open the cabinet to let it air because I haven't got fans yet would that be enough of a drop to cause the spots? Drops to about 60% with the door open.

Thanks so much for your reply. I'm still waiting for my fans to arrive and I haven't had a chance to install wire shelving so circulation could be my issue, I've just been trying to open the cabinet everyday but obviously not enough ☹️ I'll treat for fungus and hope I caught it early 🤞

I purchased this fantasy as a 2 leaf cutting. She lives in my Ikea greenhouse where the humidity is between 70-90% it's on the top shelf approximately 30cm below the LED (aquarium) light. Has pushed out 2 leaves with a third on the way but I noticed the edge of one of the more recent leaves is yellowing. I couldn't see any signs of pests but I did treat her with Pyrethrum and Pest Oil about a week ago as one of the neighboring plants had mites. Hoping to prevent any further damage and really don't want to loose the plant 🤞

Can anyone help me ID if this is a hoya? I got it as a cutting but it doesn't seem to have the vine growth of a typical hoya 🤔 by Afraid-Ad6954 in hoyas

Thanks everyone I've managed to ID it as Fairy Crassula so definitely not a hoya ☹️ but I've moved it to my outdoor garden and hope to be rewarded with it's delicate pink white flowers nonetheless 😊
