I noticed this leaf was beginning to turn yellow, so I closely examined both the front and the back of it, but this leaf does not look normal. Can anyone tell me what’s wrong with this plant? TIA!

TokkomioLooks like edema do me, but id check the younger leaves to make sure because they usually effect the youngest first

🤗… TXS! This plant was just watered, so I’m sure you are right. I’ve had a couple of other plants with edema, or so diagnosed by other Planta members; it seems like it looks different on every plant. When I water, I water through the top of the plant, or let them bottom water, so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Is there any way to prevent this? TIA!

Bottom watering usually helps! But also letting the roots dry a bit more would help since edema is a sign of overwatering. If you have smaller plants also, i found putting a paper towel or cloth helps diffuse some of the excess water out.

Excellent idea! I’m always so afraid of getting brown tips on the leaves of my plants, I water as soon as I think a plant is ready, so I’ll pull back a bit on that. The towel idea, now that is also a good idea…. will do; anything to help my babies, right?!
