# Anyone know what these green spots are?? My sister said they were…

Anyone know what these green spots are?? My sister said they were from not getting enough sunlight, so I moved it to a brighter area. But the spots were still there. I don’t know if the spots go away or not, but I’m worried it might not be sunlight and might be a pest.

I've never seen that from lack of lighting. But of it was, they wouldn't go away even if you correct the lighting. Dots like that can be pest related. Did it unfurling with them? It doesn't quite look like any sport-ing either.

I check for pests when I buy a plant, and there didn’t seem to be any. I made a theory maybe it was from too much sunlight, so I placed it behind a couple tall pots for some mild indirect light.

This is what scorching from light looks like. It's light brown in color usually
