Default algae on Nana - Go away by itself under new confitions?

Mine got the dreaded green spot algae. Amazingly I had a ton of Ramshorn
snails congregate on the big leaves and they did a GREAT job of munching
away the spots.
I too recently "upgraded" to a pressurized CO2 system. You're going to love
not having to mess with yeast and sugar....

Ive recently stopped running my DIY CO2 system and planned to convert
to a pressurized setup. It looks like it's going to be a few months
before I get can things setup though and I don't feel like restarting
the DIY system (tired of it!!).

In the meantime, I've cut back on lighting times and stopped
fertilizing. The horrendous algae growth I once had has stopped. The
green water I once fought daily remains gone after my last water
polishing. The tank looks great (albeit with very slow growth now).

The only thing left now is the algae all over my beloved Nana. Will
this algae clear up on its own under the current conditions?
Or should I pull the plant and scrub/bleach one last time?
