Bought a beautiful mini monstera just under a week ago. Just spotted the route on wide side is furry (posted photo comparison to other). When I touched it, a minuscule orange worm reared its head. Anybody any tips or suggestions to what it could be and whether it’s treatable? Thanks in advance! Jamie (Enthusiastic but definitely a novice!)

      oh yea i think its rot then, i would suggest cutting the bad part off and like trying to propagate the whole thing. get a second opinion though im not 100%

      Agreed, rot. Cut off the bad part and propagate it, so that the rot doesn’t spread anymore.
