Hello! Can anyone help identify the issue with this Philo McDowell? It had been doing great, 3 weeks ago I came back from 10 day vacation and saw some very minor spider mites, which I treated and have not seen again but the leaves have these spots on them. Looked at under a magnifying glass and they aren’t moving like an insect or anything. One leaf has some damage and an almost an iredescent look. Thank you!
I might be mistaken because I’m still kind of a newb but I’m pretty sure those are spider mite eggs? Did you wipe down the leaves when you treated them or just spray?

you 100% still have mites. spider mites lay their eggs beneath the surface of the leaf so they will continue to emerge — you need to keep treating 🚨
