Can someone help me with my Jade 🥹 She started having brown crispy tips on the very top leaves, and now she has black spots on her top leaves. She’s in a south facing window, in espoma succulent and cactus soil, and I water her when she is completely dry and then some. I will say she gets a LOT of sun during the day, so I’m wondering if she’s getting too much light? Please help my jade 🥹 ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/BEZghlM4c_bTbhfYfLLXwhORwVcGycSi1Ys8vP6Foqs/b266nQoHQ2SwZBlTMi9DbQ.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/BEZghlM4c_bTbhfYfLLXwhORwVcGycSi1Ys8vP6Foqs/jyuK5Gf1QgaehPEy8CWx9w.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/BEZghlM4c_bTbhfYfLLXwhORwVcGycSi1Ys8vP6Foqs/OyIFHSk-SPiY1y8vbLBR0Q.webp?size=large) ## 25개의 댓글 ### eatyacarbs님이 2024-09-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. did you move her here fr somewhere with less light recently? you really can’t give her too much light especially not through a window. i’d just give her time to adjust. it’s nearly impossible to kill a jade — they can bounce back from anything except overwatering i think this plant looks really healthy (maybe a bit thirsty) #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. based on the growth pattern (leaf spacing) it looks like she used to be somewhere darker, so this all looks normal. I have a few jades - old ones too - I can send pics if you want proof of my experience 😂 #### Sage님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. Thank you SO much for your help!! I did in fact move her from a south facing window with tree blockage, to a south facing window with NO tree blockage. Do you know why she’s getting the black spots? I’ve read about etiolation, is that it? Also, should I move her to a more shady spot til she adjusts more? #### Sage님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. I’d LOVE to see your jade plants - especially the old ones! #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. nope just leave her! she’ll adapt. i’m not worried about those spots at all. etiolation refers to plants stretching for the light. your plant was doing that, but you can see from how closely the new leaves are growing that she’s getting the light she wants now #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. this was a four leaf top cutting that i water propped from my first jade plant ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/437cvweqbki9dm3WGwIgPKYbWJm3edDRYD1cwUaz2Sw/DSzveg4gRx6UfLprmvpyiQ.webp?size=large) _앱에서 8개의 답글 더 보기_ ### Tabi :)님이 2024-09-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. Looks like somebody nibbled on this one 😂 ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/VMU6lJV9KGDhsUpywc2VPxmMzLe-XmiihCIsW2U9bys/K94Np5EMQked78vf6mp-QA.webp?size=large) #### Sage님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. 🤣🤣🤣 I’ve been trying to figure out what’s going on there! #### Tabi :)님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. Hahaha that’s so understandable , do you have cats ? #### Sage님이 2024-09-17에 답변했습니다. I do, but they don’t touch my plants at all! So I’m assuming it must’ve been some sort of bug that came in through the window… ### Plantpa님이 2024-09-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. Fungal/bacterial infections and environmental stress cause black spots. Proper watering, air circulation, and humidity control are key #### Ji11님이 2024-09-18에 답변했습니다. Agree, looks like a fungal infection ### #TazerLove'sPlant's님이 2024-09-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. Ohh nooo ### #TazerLove'sPlant's님이 2024-09-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. Did you figure it out #### Sage님이 2024-09-18에 답변했습니다. I think I did!! I suspect a mix of overwatering and moving it to a much more sunny window ☺️ ### Plant Father님이 2024-09-18에 댓글을 남겼어요. your plant looks really good. i think the spots are most likely edema from watering inconsistencies. i water my jade plants only when the bottom leaves are soft, but before the plant looks truly dehydrated. it may be helpful to pay attention to the state of your leaves when it’s time to water, to see if you need to adjust the frequency. also, be sure to saturate the soil fully at each watering, this will help your plant grow a sturdy root system. #### Sage님이 2024-09-18에 답변했습니다. Thank you so much, this is very helpful!! I’ll make sure to have consistent watering by following your advice 🪴 --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
