# HELP! This showed up on my fiddle fig out of the blue and I have no…

_Posted by NEWTOTHISKAYCE on 2023-08-31_

HELP! This showed up on my fiddle fig out of the blue and I have no idea what it is 🤯🫣 my husband did put her outside a couple weeks ago and she got pretty severely sunburnt. I pruned most of the sunburnt leaves off and she was doing okay. It worth noting that she is in an active grow cycle right now, so that’s why this is causing a lot of confusion and concern. I am so worried about her! Help me get her healthy again?! 🙏🏼

Looks like she was sunburned more than you thought, and stress of that compounded.  
No idea if this product works, but worth a shot?

When I sunburnt the heck out of my monstera last year, some of the leaves continued to burn and die when I brought it back inside after a few days so maybe like us with sunburn not showing up til later😩

Definitely looks like sunburn. It’s permanent damage. It may not kill the larger leaves. It just won’t be pretty. Hopefully, this will cause the plant to put out new leaves since it’s the growing part of the cycle.
