# Hey I’m worried this might be fungus. I did just treat for fungus…

_Posted by Kysh on 2024-07-06_

Hey I’m worried this might be fungus. I did just treat for fungus gnats, but I also accidentally left her outside for a bit too long yesterday. If it is fungus, any tips on how to deal with it??

That looks like sunburn to me, not fungus unfortunately. Just keep her in a good spot with shade, and avoid full sun. The spots shouldn’t spread if the plant is doing well. If the fungus gnats keep bothering you I’d suggest a repot and fresh soil
