When my birken produces this beaut of a leaf, I’ve had so much white it’s nice to see green coming through for a change

Make sure you have enough green because then you can get a chlorophyll problem , and they need that green , you can cut off the fully white leaves if it starts being a problem and you don’t notice any new growth on the plant

No there’s loads of random wee green bits in new leaves coming out so don’t worry
