I was watering plants just now, and saw that my phaedranassa viridiflora suddenly shows what must be mosaic virus. I'm about to pitch this, unless someone thinks it's something else. I did find an article on how to eliminate virus with heat treatment

Interesting, but I don't have the time or patience to do this process. Can I bake the empty terra cotta pot to kill any virus? (I'm thinking 'clean cycle' in the oven....).
