How long have you had the markings / streaks on the fans? Have you seen any Thrips? They can cause the leaf streaking.

Or.

1. The leaf streaking and necrosis on new growth could indicate a virus. (Not good).
2. If you’ve seen Thrips that will explain the streaking, and you could have broad mites and that will cause the new growth necrosis.

@JimyTheCook .
I gotta hit the hay. As you won’t have time to get predators in, I’d go out tonight and hit all your plants with what you’ve got..Neem I think you said you’ve got. Then google broad mite control. Once you’ve started with Neem you wont be able to use predators. Broad mites are a friggin pain to get rid of and you’ll have to treat often and for a while, and use different types of sprays.
It may be best to get rid of the one plant showing the infection and start treating the others.
If you can. Put a bag over it, pull it, close the bag and dispose of it well.

IPM.....prevention is better than cure!
