Default Re: Whats wrong with my ventricosa?

The media was what came with the plant when I bought it about a month ago, and I haven't fertillized my neps. Actually it looked like it was getting too much light at first; my other ventricosa is in a darker spot and doing fine.

I think I will cut off the infected leaves when I transplant it, thanks for the advice.

The media that it was in before was an orchid bark and coconut fiber mix. I'll include some LFS in the new medium, and maybe that will be better for the plant. (I read somewhere that mites actually like warm, dry conditions) I might also put a bit of rooting powder on the roots to help it recover faster.
