Fungicide to deal with rust spot

Hi,

Whats a good fungicide to eliminate rust spot and is nep safe, preferably one I could find at home depot?

I've been procrastinating on the rust spot issue but it's just getting worse.

Thanks!
 
I think u r talking about the redish spot on the leaves....rust colour. That apparently is due to light burn. It might happen if u place it in direct sun without acclaimatising it and so on. My new nep also has a few of them on a couple of leaves. Nothing to worry about.
 
Can you post a picture of the infected plant? I have used cinnamon with good results for neps. I mix it with rainwater and make a paste and spread it on the infected leaves. There is also a spray by Schultz that is a fungicide and insecticide.
 
I use carbendazim half strength once a week for 2 times and every 15 days 2 times. remove and burn infected leaves as many as possible.

My n. tentaculata has like two small circles that look like what you up there. I'll give it a spray of clearys and see what happens.
