# UPDATE Checked my marble queen pothos a second time after brown spots…

_Gepostet von P am 2024-04-21_

UPDATE

Checked my marble queen pothos a second time after brown spots on foliage and discovered minor root rot that I didn’t catch the first time I checked it. I removed all the damaged leaves, dark roots, added HP and put the remaining in water. Although I didn’t clean off the dirt 100% off the roots, here are current pics…

Definitely a learning experience for me.

Any tips?

My understanding is the roots will continue to rot if all the dirt isn’t removed.

Thank you for this info! 🙂 I’ll do some research about it and clean them completely to be on the safe side.
