Hi there! I’ve had my Sageretia for about two months now and everything seemed good until a couple days back. She’s been developing these white patches on her leaves and they seem to be spreading. When i wet the leaves, the patches turn a brown-ish colour. I’ve been watering her everyday and I’ve also been spraying the leaves with water (I put the water in an old hair oil spray bottle that I cleaned, could that be harmful?). I’ve been also mixing a small bit of fertilizer into the water, so I’m basically fertilizing her a little everyday (I’ve been doing this because I got her as a gift and she wasn’t doing that well then and it really helped her look healthier), so maybe that’s harmful, too? She gets a lot of light everyday, though she’s not in direct sunlight and the room gets pretty hot, too.. I don’t know what to do with her and I don’t want to make it worse,, thank you in advance!

Hi again xD so I just digged a little deeper and it seems like it’s most definitely Powdery mildew. If anyone had any tips as to how to get rid of this problem, let me know!

Spray leaves with 40%milk/60%water. Repeat in a week until its gone, reapply after rain.
