Hmmm have you added fertilizer recently to your plant?

#### Cala respondió el 2024-08-06

No I haven’t but I just picked it up from Walmart. The roots look great. I did repot it though.

Interesting! This one is a real puzzle as I usually see deterioration not coming from the centre of the leaf. If you’re having this issue with the leaves closer to the roots, likely overwatering, if it’s coming from the top, it might be under watering if that helps!
