Anyone know what’s going on in my snake plant? I just split from the mother plant since it was tight in its old pot. I couldnt see this spot but now I don’t want to lose both plants! I water about once per month and usually bottom water unless fertilizing. Beginner here, so need some help. Please and thank you 😊

Possibly shock of splitting and part damage, may need to use some fungicide to treat the infected area

Also grow better with wider , shallow pots to allow roots to grow longways so can pups to grow from them, just not to big
