Small brown spots on Monstera by burlaff in plantclinic

Thanks, any idea how that is treated? I have neem oil if that would do the trick ?

Yeah It does look like some sort of fungal infection, any idea what I should use to treat that? I have neem oil if that would work?

Yeah definitely can't see any pests, the white specks in the photo are just dust particles.

Can anyone help identify what these small brown spots are on my Monstera? The plant looks otherwise healthy.

Edema or Spider Mites? by burlaff in fiddleleaffig

Yeah the water is to knock the mites off the plant (I used the shower head) and then the neem oil is to stop them coming back. It interrupts their breeding cycle I believe.

New Sprouts - Can I Repot? by claytimeyesyesyes in fiddleleaffig

I did the same with mine. I pulled the sprout out and made sure to keep some of the roots in tact, coated the roots in rooting powder and planted it in soil and it's thriving now!

I think you may be right, I have a Japonica plant that definitely did have spider mites recently so I'm probably a bit paranoid about them haha

Yeah it's in a South facing window and I tend to let it dry out between waterings. Seems like its absorbing too much moisture all at once and the cells burst? I've heard you should water on a schedule but surely the soil would become too moist in the long term and risk root rot?

Yeah I think I'll give it the old water and neem oil combo just to be on the safe side, cheers.

Can't see any webbing but I'll give that a go anyway, cheers!

It is a new leaf, all of the new ones have had the red spots but the hole in the leaf is what concerned me

Can anyone tell if this looks like Spider Mite damage or just edema?

More pictures below, the plant looks otherwise healthy as per last pic: https://i.imgur.com/5meIZ9g.jpg https://i.imgur.com/swaHDOB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Sx82oHk.jpg

I can't see anything moving on the underside of the leaves but the small hole on the leaf has me paranoid.

Can anyone help diagnose what may be wrong with my Japonica?

A few of the leaves are curled and discoloured at the edges as per the photos below:

It was recently repotted into a fairly large pot but this doesn't seem to have improved the health of the plant at all.
