My plant has been doing well but I noticed this brown spot yesterday and it seems to be getting bigger. Anyone know what it is and how to treat it?

Possibly too much light? Same thing is happening with my cebu-albo. I moved it out from under a grow light and more to the side very recently so still have yet to determine the cause

If it’s on the white area only I wouldn’t worry much, those areas tend to brown

Sun burn! ☀️  
White sections don’t have enough pigment to absorb the rays keep out of direct sunlight, towards the interior of the home.
