I had the same thing happen to me recently. Literally one leaf was like that. I just eventually cut it off. Idk how it happened too.

I couldn’t tell 100% from the photo, but if it’s the lowest/lower leaf (e.g. an older leaf), it’s perfectly normal.

that must be it! it was one of the first leaves when i bought it as a starter plug. do i cut it off or let it do its thing?

you can do either. I will usually cut it off once it looks like it’s pretty far gone.
