My pothos is crispy and holey!
I can’t figure it out, for the life of me I cannot spot any pests but look! The only thing I can think of is my 34% AZ humidity even with a humidifier?? Thoughts?? I’ve treated with neem and an insecticidal soap for the past month. Never once have spotted a pest though. Even my new leaf came out with issues (second photo).
2ft to light, indirect

@FreshOakmoss21 hello fellow Arizonan.. I’m near Tempe marketplace. I’m going to be honest..I even run a humidifier for my other plants, I live in a second floor apartment and my golden pothos and satin are just…frustrating. They do the same thing.. my brasil and my pearls and jade don’t get these anomalies. I just keep in indirect light, neem and watch them. I’m going to see what others post. Oh my humidity can be from 40-45, I can’t acclimate to out heat and the humidity too lol.
@FreshOakmoss21 I just realized you had brown crispy tips..yep..good old humidity.. some say pebble trays (those don’t work for me) and I hesitate to mist any plant at all cause of possiblly causing fungus,etc. maybe take in the shower a couple times a week or something similar. It’s a thought… I was so uptight cause I always thought something was eating my babies.
@LivingStones I just went back to look, I think it was the hole in the upper leaf blurring in the photo…
@SvelteDevilsivy yeah! It seems very tricky! I struggle with humidity. My house has an open floor plan with tall ceilings so even the humidifier does very little and I go back and forth if I should even continue spending the money on distilled water. Based on what you’re saying too I’m thinking it’s the humidity issue then, but I thought pothos were fairly good at acclimating 🤷🏻♀️
@SvelteDevilsivy yes, 100% exactly feel this! Ugh. But good to know I’m not alone!
