Have a monstera deliciosa that has been thriving on my balcony since I got it. Then today when I was watering it, I noticed this one nasty leaf. See pic. Anyone know what caused that? It isnāt on any other part of the plant. Just cut it off? Or is it more serious?
Weird!!! It almost looks like maybe something caustic got spilled on it that burned it. Or maybe a bird pooped on it? If thereās so sign of bugs Iād just ignore it and watch it. Iād cut the brown spot out if it were me just cuz I donāt like seeing brown on my leaves. I bet itās nothing serious.

Sunburn?

It looks like sunburn. Do you have something in the yard--lawn ornament, windchime, etc which is reflective? Maybe it's causing a āmagnifying glassā effect. I had some flowers in my front yard and I couldn't figure out why one side was so crispy. Then I noticed that my metal wind chime was throwing a reflection right on that part of the plant. Once I moved it, it was fine .
