HELLLPPPOOPP okay, so basically, my pink princess has these tiny dry spots on some of its leaves (has had them since i got her). the spots aren’t in clusters or anything so i assumed that they might just be spots from experiencing stress in shipping? but i was looking at my other plants (a pitcher plant, venus flytrap, and pothos) and they also have single, tiny spots like this on some of their leaves. my pink princess is also pushing out a new leaf right now that seems to have black spots on it. my initial guess was that i gave that stem too much moisture and it led to tiny areas of rot (i was misting this stem because i was worried about the new leaf getting stuck). but now i’m getting paranoid about a fungal infection going around… my plants are in good shape right now—no dying leaves or wilting, just these tiny spots. but i’m still really nervous. should i get fungicide?

    It looks like black thrips 😭 I just found these on some of my plants. They can be so small that they look like specs of dirt. Which is why I didn't know I had them at first. That's the kind of damage they leave and in the close up if the stem, you can see it. I'd recommend rinsing off the plant and adding insecticide, spray it well front and back of leaves. Good luck! 💜

      i went through every leaf on my plants and checked all sides thoroughly for thrips but didn’t find any pests!! so i’m still a little baffled about the spots but i’m so relieved it’s not thrips 😭 maybe it was gnats?
