What is happening?! I had to repot my Marble Queen 2 weeks ago bc of root rot that was present at purchase. I split it between two pots because I was worried one might die and I’d be left with nothing haha. Now I am battling spider mites! I have spotted two. One on each of my Queens. I couldn’t tell you how long they’ve been there. There’s no webbing but I’ve had two leaves die since repotting and I have mutated new growth? Is this a result of the spider mites or something else? Any ideas what the thing is in the third picture? You can see it zoomed out in the 4th. Can the variegation of Marble Queens handle neem oil and Castile soap? How have you treated your Queens successfully? This is my first house plant in years so thank you! Update to add: I just checked my Snake Plant that was nearby (purchased at same time). Didn’t see any spider mites but I did see fungus gnats. Have I been cursed with a crash course in plant pests? The Queens and the Snake are being isolated in their own separate rooms. I’m so disappointed :’(

      Thank you! I gave them a good soak last night. Afterwards one of the stems turned brown. I pulled it out and realized the biggest root was black 😭

    This looks like manjula pothos, do you have manjula and marble queen in the same pot?

      To be honest with you, I don’t know what I have. I had them report it at the nursery and assumed it was a marble queen based on pictures. I just looked up manjula though and there’s a good chance it is that!

      Here are better pictures of the leaf shapes. When I bought it in a single pot a month ago, the leaves weren’t curled at all. A lot of these leaves are new since buying and a lot I had to throw out due to intense root rot.
