Does anyone know what might cause these spots on my Thai Constellation?

I’m not sure about this one but I’ve heard that plants with lots of pale white spots are prone to browning due to lack of chloroplasts? I’m not sure how to prevent it haha

### KallianHawke comentó el 2025-07-11

Because it’s on the lighter parts of the leaf, my first guess would be sunburn/too much light?

#### Sim G. respondió el 2025-07-11

Ahhh that makes sense

### LeafyGreenhouse comentó el 2025-07-11

Mine had these when it was at Walmart and I think they were overwatering or sunburn marks !

### Maddie comentó el 2025-07-11

I also find some of my tropical plants get the “burnt” look when they don’t receive enough humidity!

### Fig Newton comentó el 2025-07-11

I've had this exact problem on just the white parts. I learned that Silica can help with this.

#### Sim G. respondió el 2025-07-12

The packets? How?

#### Fig Newton respondió el 2025-07-12

Not the packets, look up liquid silica for plants. TPS nutrients has one.

#### sarita respondió el 2025-07-13

yep! this is natural behavior for white parts of the leaves over time. i use TPS silica gold on my thai (and all my other plants lol), highly recommend!
