What is wrong with my maranta (herringbone plant)?

Malory.holden · August 2020

Can anyone help me give the right diagnosis?? I was about re-pot my herringbone into 2 separate pots and woke-up today to find it looking pretty sad, yellowing leaves etc. Online looks as if it could be Cucumber Mosaic virus but before I HAVE to throw it away wanted to double check it wasn't a combo of too much light over the weekend and not enough iron....but also scared of it spreading if it is a virus so want to sort it out quickly. Any help much welcome please!!

More likely to be the conditions. I would go ahead with the dividing and repotting. They might sulk for a bit but if it's a nutrient issue, fresh compost should help. They like humidity so don't forget to mist them often.

Thank you! I'd rather save and have them sulking then have to say goodbye! Yes I do mist them most days - will give the divide and conquer a go, hopefully that's it then. Cheers!
