# I have this Peperomia plant that I love a lot and as a very careful…

I have this Peperomia plant that I love a lot and as a very careful plant mum, I’m wondering if these brown spots are fine to leave or if I should cut the bit off?

Water damage imo. Do you mist?

#### Ari antwoordde op 2024-06-15

Yes, you can see the spray bottle in the corner of one of the pictures

I would not mist unless you have a fan to help it dry. It looks like water droplets magnified the sunlight and burned the leaves to me. There’s also a few parts I suspect rust (also from misting.)

Wouldn’t hurt to spray a fungicide to try to control it from spreading

Thank you, I’ve searched up recipes but I don’t have any of the things so I’m going to cut the leaves that have rust/sunburn off

Good call! And best of luck!

Thank you! I hope the leaves come back quickly he looks like half of him has been cut off
