Hi there! Pretty new to plants. Any clue why these black spots on this pothos are? It was outside in Texas heat, so I thought maybe it was getting burned. But now it’s also doing it inside in dappled light! Seems to happen to my biggest leaves. Came from Lowe’s so I was worried about bugs, not this!  
😩

I have moved her inside and she no longer has spots appearing. Must have been sun burn. Thanks y’all!
