Ordered this crystallinum online and it arrived like this! What are all of these white splotchy things and how do I keep her from yellowing and crisping on the edges? She is in a cabinet with the humidity above 90 and the temperature is consistently 75 to 78 . Maybe I’m not keeping her wet enough? Ignore how wet the pot looks currently I literally just watered her two seconds ago.
Most nursery or over seas do not demineralize their water. So it's probably mineral buildup from watering. It should wipe off with a leaf shine/cleaning mixture
좋아요 1개 If it was shipped it's going to go through some shock. If they don't wipe off and look internal, ot could be spider mite damage
2개 좋아요 I think it is I’ve tried to gently wipe off and it doesn’t work! I’ve never had them on houseplants so I guess now I know. Oh yay 🤣 Thank you!!
0개 좋아요 Some one on here was saying they worked at a plant store and they used a vinegar dilution, to chemically break them down, and swore by it. I've seen varying measurements, but I'd start low since vinegar is not plant friendly full strength. Like a 1/2- 1/4 teaspoon per 32 oz of water
좋아요 1개 I recently got some larger anthurium, and they were covered in mineral deposits!! I'm spoiled by the places like Steve's Leaves that either us RO or clean leaves before they ship
좋아요 1개 Should I chop the damaged leaves ??
0개 좋아요 Oh no! Is it progressing super fast? Like you see more the next day? Or just seeing more over a week. If it's super fast it's probably bacterial, if not than fungal. Either way ypu could use Physan-20 it treats bacterial and fungal

0개 좋아요 What are your thoughts on captain jacks copper fungicide/bacteriacide? It’s what I ordered when I first researched blight
0개 좋아요 I've never tried that one. But I love the bonide products
0개 좋아요 Okay awesome! We will see! I would say most of the leaves are infected, except the newest one. Should I chopped the rest? Is the whole leaf infected or just the spots? Thank you so so much for all your help always ! I appreciate it so much
좋아요 1개 It's always hard for me to chop leaves of they are still green and useful. Especially cuz ive chopped and then the leaf i left gets worse than the others and I have an existential crisis and no leaves at all lol. But if they look bad, I would. Or at least trim the bad bits off. Make sure to sanitize with alcohol in between
