My Leafy Life

Should I be worried about this brown stuff on some of my leaves? This one and another one are probably have the same amount. I have a couple others that look like they're just starting to get it. It appears to be the worst on the oldest leaves and the newer leaves appear fine.

    I think it’s just the way they age. Thankfully, aging is not a disease to recover from.. It is a curse without escape.

    Just make sure it won’t scrape off. If it comes off when you scrape it it may be scale

    this is called corking. it's natural as the plant ages, they're just scars from the leaves moving over time. however, if you wipe with peroxide or isopropyl and it comes off, not corking! scale!

      I'll give it a try. Thanks! If it is scale what do I do besides wipe it off? Is there a way to keep it from coming back?

      remove all visible bugs, then wipe down with neem oil. repeat every 2-3 days until bugs stop returning
