Hello everyone! I recently got this Ruby Rubber Plant from the clearance section, one of the leafs is damaged as seen in the photo below. Should I keep this leaf or cut it off? Thanks!

Cut, don't allow your plant to feed something that's damaged, let it focus on new growth and keeping the healthy ones going

Thank you for the advice Chels. Sorry for another question - would I just snip where I have marked on the attached photo?

That's what I would do, that way has always worked for me, I've seen some where they just snip the leaf themselves but I've never been. Successful that way

If there is questionable browning, always snip it.

Thank you Chels \& Wolfen 🤩
