They’re just so finicky about his much water and how long they stay wet. It took me a really long time to fix my edema issue and it still pops up sometimes but it’ll fade as the leaf gets older.

Mine looks like that too, so I’ve been wondering the same thing So, it’s the water? Not a pest problem? How did you fix it?

Yeah fiddles are prone to edema. Making sure it’s super dry before watering her and I don’t drown mine like my other plants. I water a little then wait few mins and give her a little more until it runs out the bottom and I make sure to keep the drainage tray empty after watering so she doesn’t stay too wet and it has helped with my edema leaves significantly. Hope it helps! Once the leaves are grown the edema fades well so you’ll still have a pretty fiddle!
