Please help! For some context,… _SSさんが2024-04-11に投稿しました_ What’s going on with my Golden pothos? Please help! For some context, I’ve had this plant for more than 3 years now and it’s indoors in an 8.5’ plastic pot with drainage. It had a thrips attack in the first year but recovered after a long battle. Recently, I’ve been noticing brown spots (as in the pictures) on mostly older leaves and got rid of them, as I was worried it would spread to the newer leaves. I’ve been watering it regularly when the top layer is dry and use osmocote every 6 months. I’ve about 17 plants in total and see no pest activity on pothos (or others), except for these spots. Have a humidifier running for added humidity. Any ideas on what this is? ![2件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IH15CYC4VdsR95gwpwoNBRRFzmBoYemUfwEeGxeBb5s/16hHN1sBRou3YJXanfGhSQ.webp?size=large) ![2件中2件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IH15CYC4VdsR95gwpwoNBRRFzmBoYemUfwEeGxeBb5s/uHkKQ5X9QJyvlx3Rafrccw.webp?size=large) ## 9件のコメント ### Plantaメンバーさんが2024-04-12にコメントしました it’s like some kind of fungus . Pothos do prefer to have soil dry out before watering . You can do cuttings or wait out the long game and see how it goes #### SSさんが2024-04-14に返信しました Thanks you and appreciate the tip! I’ve been watering it every 20 days on an average in winter, based on how dry the soil felt but probably should’ve waited a lil longer. ### Miaさんが2024-04-12にコメントしました I had the same issue where i was overwatering it and fungus came on the leaves so I literally cut the leaves off just leaving stems and waited for the new leaves on the stems to grow. Not the best idea as they took a while to grow back but no fungus now. ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/GuXLZcrEybg67MJXfA-7TF4wsrQGPEKzkCtWeKnGELM/vsNGDy_LSze8212q56JNSw.webp?size=large) #### SSさんが2024-04-14に返信しました Glad it worked for you! Your babies look beautiful btw :) #### Miaさんが2024-04-14に返信しました Thank you! I am yet so find a pot the right size to fit on the beam they are on. ### JJさんが2024-04-13にコメントしました Some of mine are doing this right now too. I cut some of them off but will cut the rest off tomorrow. I’ll check back to see if anyone else responds too. #### SSさんが2024-04-14に返信しました I’ve got rid of all the infected leaves as well and plan to spray with neem oil this week. I hope your’s gets better 🤞🏻 #### JJさんが2024-04-24に返信しました How is yours doing? Mine seems to be doing ok I didn’t cut all of them off I left some that weren’t to bad and it seems to be doing ok at the moment. ### SSさんが2024-05-01にコメントしました Glad that it’s doing ok! I removed most of the infected leaves on mine and sprayed it down with neem oil, castile soap and baking soda. It seems to be doing fine so far. --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
