I’ve got a rubber tree that has a few spots like this on some of the leaves. I assume it’s sunburn from the adjustment period because I bought it from a garden section in a hardware store. Is there anything I can do to get rid of it? Pinch off the leaves? Or just leave them?

Would that be lime disease?

I have a few of mine that are like this. It can be all sorts of things! Sunburn, improper watering, or water quality (usually tap).
