Advice? My little fiddle is getting more brown spots. I see signs of growth, but not sure what’s going on with the leaves 😭

Pretty sure that’s Edema. Check out you tube for that on fiddles and see if it fits.

Could it be overwatering?

#### Kae replied on 2023-07-24

No:/ I use a water meter plus I checked it 😭

When mine had edema it did NOT look like that, it looked more like the veins were turning brown but they weren’t round spots like that. I think it looks like a pest or fungus

Will look into both. Thank you!

Hmmm look for pests? The random location of the spotting could indicate buggies crawling around deciding at random to eat. But the spotting is significant enough it could be some kind of infection from a virus or other microorganism.
