hey y’all! I just got this little guy, and after about a week he has gotten these big brown spots on only one leaf. I haven’t repotted it and since it’s cold it’s spent days in the sun and nights back in the house. Can somebody tell me why this is happening?
Maybe just adjusting to the humidity, and it is good that you didn’t repot it. It is honestly usually not necessary to repot a new plant. It might need a little more humidity

How cold is it outside during the day?
0개 좋아요 it’s about 60-70 throughout the day. I am in Texas
0개 좋아요 it’s in direct sun when it’s outside

Too much sun. Probably burned. Definitely take it out of direct sun.

This is mine currently, it seems like the old leaves are struggling but new look better?
Rubber trees can live in direct sun if they are slowly acclimated. Most nurseries grow them in filtered sunlight. So, they will burn when moved directly into full sunlight.
