I’m seeing this brown spots slowly appearing on my Ficus Tineka. I water her every 2 weeks and she has grown during the winter period so I don’t think that’s the issue. Should I chop it?

It could just be old leaves dying off and new leaves forming. I’d check the soil to see if it’s moist or not. My bamboo plants leaves die off and then new ones grow

My guess is that the brown spots are due to overwatering or inconsistent watering. Chopping it would be your preference. I personally wouldn’t.
