Sorry not the best pictures because my phone camera… _Opslået af Nicole den 2024-04-03_ PLEASE HELP. Sorry not the best pictures because my phone camera sucks. What are these bumps on the back of my pilea leaf 😭 I moved this guy to a new location a couple months ago because I believe it was getting too much sun in the old spot. The leaves were turning pale lime green and there was some redness which I assume was sun stress. Today I just noticed these gross bumps on the back of the leaves. It’s on a lot of the new leaves and sort of looks like it could be where the pores are? I am wondering if it’s overfertilized. I don’t know what else could be the problem. I only water it when dry. I don’t think there are pests…nothing is moving. I water with tap water, but I always have used tap water on this plant. Could it be edema? Also, the humidity in the room has been way up the past week or so because this other plant I got needs humidity of 60-70%. Thank you! ![Vedhæftet fil 1 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/AKPgTxdXR-Wq4Vhs6uiOKA.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 2 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/B75Evj6yTnGE91XGgLKgWw.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 3 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/RKMsBFQlSYGSdcVQe5bBgA.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 4 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/SFUghh6oS4uWcNYandVpGA.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 5 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/Z5Zg6bRiTaaB2DdOhyKrVQ.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 6 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/VCkzl0A8Qa6Vi4CxKkMxsw.webp?size=large) ![Vedhæftet fil 7 af 7](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/oWR0HqmlRYG8pkfAoDIM_w.webp?size=large) ## 19 kommentarer ### Freedomskai kommenterede den 2024-04-03 Do they come off when rubbed? #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-03 Nope. Just tried using my nail and then a wet paper towel #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-03 Here’s another example ![Vedhæftet fil 1 af 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VibmKkNKtpe2KLxvCzITuMUpyY7UvZV-mMj5SeeXa3w/G6TqjtFAS1K2yexyI9i8qg.webp?size=large) #### Freedomskai svarede den 2024-04-03 I heard blister like bumps on pilea can be from pests or overwatering. Maybe try going for a bit longer in between watering or checking the soil? #### Freedomskai svarede den 2024-04-03 I know you said you water when dry and there’s no visible pests but maybe they could be hidden? #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-03 Ugh I hope it’s not pests 😭 I’m so careful and haven’t introduced any new plants to my plant room. And all newcomers get systemic granules, captain jacks spray, new soil, and thorough inspection _3 flere svar i appen_ ### FriendofVeg kommenterede den 2024-04-03 Pretty sure those are normal (but not sure what they are). I’ll see if they show up in any of the pics I have of mine #### FriendofVeg svarede den 2024-04-03 This is from one of the stock images of this Planta, zoomed in. None of my pics showed it well. ![Vedhæftet fil 1 af 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/yK11BiYfqVwCMHejsVfuI1LKT4d13qD_YfXYCCN4Xx4/PYnfAZvNToOmF-rGogjxcQ.webp?size=large) #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-03 Okay good…I’ve seen some of the white ones on other leaves but this one confused me because they’re black/red. Thanks for your help!! ### Plant Mom kommenterede den 2024-04-03 My plant has those and I tried to scratch them off damaging some leaves in the process. I then figured out they were normal. #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-03 Thank you! I swear my pileas stress me out more than any other plants 😂 idk what I’m doing wrong because I know everyone else considers them “easy” 🤣 #### Plant Mom svarede den 2024-04-04 Mine stressed me out too until I quit freaking out about every little change. Let the soil completely dry out between waterings and it should be fine without much mothering ### Lindsey kommenterede den 2024-04-04 The bumps are normal. 👍🏼🌿 #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-05 Thank you! ### Pretty fly 4 a Cacti kommenterede den 2024-04-04 This is just the money plant leaves “pores”. It’s how they get rid of excess mineral buildup from waterings. Totally normal, every money plant will have them they just become more noticeable if you have a high mineral content in your water #### Nicole svarede den 2024-04-05 Thank you! We do have pretty high mineral content in the water here. I have to give my finicky plants distilled lol --- _Planta-fællesskabet (https://getplanta.com). Alle kan læse med.
