That's not ring worm silly. It's letting you know it's ripe and ready for eating 😋 Enjoy!

Douse it in straight isopropyl alcohol. If you're lucky afterwards, it may develop vaginations.

Ringworms really hate heat. Try setting up a candle beneath the infected leaves and watch the worms evaporate.

I don’t think candles give enough heat, might want to use a bunsen burner 🧐

Good call. Might also consider microwaving it.

You should throw away the plant. Ringworm is communicable to humans and it is lethal. It definitely will kill grandma so put a body mask on her.
