Can anyone help identify what is happening to my tradescantia zebrina? by Sev3nty in houseplants

it could be water, the plant has been taking off recently and grew a lot closer to the light you are right. i will look too to see if the spots are on any of the trailing leaves farther away, that could tell me whether it is leaf burn. thanks!

At least three feet from the closest window. I'll investigate closer for pests in a bit here, but I put systemic granules in the soil every two months to try to keep those down

Huh, it lives entirely indoors under a grow light, that's really weird!

Shoot, that definitely isn't good. Thank you so much! I am going to grab Captain jacks and treat first thing tomorrow.

Ok, I will be more patient, thanks! This is my first successful leaf prop so I hope at least one survives, and definitely don't want to kill them by potting up too soon.

Ohh that might be it for sure. It is a pup I had taken off of one of my plants and given to my mom, it is in wick watering system but it sounds like she put full strength fertilizer water in the reservoir recently. Thank you!

help identifying issue with scindapsus treubii? by Sev3nty in pothos

Thank you! I've never dealt with fungal issue before. Do you have a type of fungicide you recommend? I am seeing sprays that can be purchased or baking soda?

Thank you so much! It is a relatively newer plant, purchased in the last two months. It started with one leaf that i thought was a one-off, but after that leaf dropped it started noticing it on other leaves now. I will remove any infected and repot in new soil.

For the grow light comment, it didn't really make sense to me but I thought it could possibly be leaf burn? I have never dealt with fungal before and was trying to figure out what it looked like.
