_Geplaatst door Kieley op 2024-07-21_

Hello recently got this rubber plant few days ago and it’s developing brown spots on several leaves. Any ideas on why this is happening and how to prevent it?

Thanks in advance.

Mine did the exact same thing. I'm pretty sure it's due to inconsistent watering.

Could be a moisture thing since they like high humidity. I mist mine semi-regularly. But if the brown spots are mushier that may be more overwatering

The white parts of the leaves brown quickly because of lack of chlorophyll. As long as she’s still producing new growth, I wouldn’t worry! My pothos do that as well!
