I’d check for Thrips. If you see little black specks rub them if they slide that’s thrip poo. Some of your pictures look like they have little white specks. The white specks could be thrips.

Thank you so much! if I find them, how would you reccommend I treat my plants? 😊

First separate it from the other plants, this is crucial!! Buy some neem oil and peppermint soap and dilute that with water. It’s only a few teaspoons of each with water, double check ratio though. Spray those leaves down every few days and then once a week for 4 weeks, if you get them sooner great job. But you have to stay on it. Get ready for the most funnest expensive hobby of your life and be careful it’s extremely addicting! 😉

That’s absolutely right. I just bought my 34th plant. Help!

If you find no pests, it could be a bacterial or fungal issue caused from overwatering.
