Ficus

Ficus, leaf spots and possible mites

Hello!
I have a 2 year old ficus which has always done very well: it has grown a lot, it makes new leaves all the time, even new branches without any pruning.
But the other day I noticed that some spots appeared on its leaves. I bought a fungicide (Amistar) and an insecticide (Vertimec 1,8 ec) but I’m not sure if it really is infested by any pests or not.
I have never changed its location, it is in a bright place without direct sunlight, the temperature is between 19 and 21 degrees, I water it about once a week, sometimes less often.
Please advise me what I can do to save it as it is very dear to me.
Thanks in advance.

Hello. The symptoms observed on the leaves in the inserted pictures could be caused by a phytopathogenic disease, possibly bacteriosis, as well as by the attack of mites. In this case it is recommended to remove the severely affected leaves and carry out a first treatment with an insecticide-acaricide such as Vertimec 1.8 EC, 10 ml, in a dose of 5 ml/10 L water, applied by foliar spraying. To increase the effectiveness of the insecticide, it is recommended to add an adjuvant such as Break Thru S 240, 2 ml, in a dose of 2 ml/10 L to the solution. 7 days after this treatment, a second treatment with a fungicide such as Champ 77 WG, 20 g, in a dose of 20 g/10 L water is recommended. It is advisable to spray the solutions as finely as possible, so as to achieve an even distribution on the plant, both on the underside and on the topside of the leaves, as well as on the stem. It is advisable to prepare a volume of solution corresponding to a single treatment (respecting the mentioned dosage), as the already prepared mixture does not have a shelf life longer than 24 hours. The treatments can also be applied to the other plants on the premises (if any). At the same time as the treatments are carried out, in order to provide the plant with the necessary nutrients and to revitalize it, it is also advisable to apply a fertilizer such as AMN Powerfertiliser, 500 ml, by watering, according to the instructions on the product label.
If, after completion of the treatments, you still notice the presence of fine webs, 7-10 days after the completion of the second treatment, you may consider a third treatment with Vertimec 1.8 EC, 10 ml. Given the current condition of the plant, it is not possible to predict its future development.
