Found dark brown blotches on my plants new leaf. I saw a little bit more on another growing leaf. It looks like fungal infection but I want to get a second opinion. How do I minimize the damage?

Looks like overwatering to me but that’s from only seeing one photo.

But, you can use a commercial fungicide if you strongly believe it’s fungal growth. Eradication with a fungicide is the fastest way to stop fungal growth.
