I’m propagating my arrowhead plant and this showed up today, could this be from having right next to the window? Would I have to move the plant?

They like indirect light. Looks like sunburn. Same for the pothos next to it.

It’s my first time propagating any tips?

Bright, indirect light would probably be best! Besides that just make sure the nodes stay under water and let them do their thing!

More nodes underwater means more roots and a better chance for survival after planting in soil. Change the water once a week at least. Plant with rooting hormone powder when the roots are at least 2 inches long. Keep both plants in indirect light after pls planting. Good luck!🍀

this looks like the sunlight focused through the glass and burnt your leaf. i had it happen once to a pothos, consider adjusting your props so none of the leaves are behind the glass, this’ll prevent it happening again
