Scorched leaves? I recently transferred this anthurium to pon from a soil mix - I got it from a plant expo. I think I scorched the leaves?

I’m using Spyder lights. On this shelf there’s 3 bars at 50% dim.

Owwwie! I bet that’s what your plant is saying! You didn’t mention what your lighting situation is. Did you put this in a window, or are you using plant lights? Fill us in on the details, and I think you’ll get some better answers. Good luck, both to you, and your plant!

It doesn’t look like a light burn pattern, it would start with yellowing the edges and losing coloration more evenly, then the burnt parts will turn more of a brown color with more uniform damage. Grow lights shouldn’t burn a plant unless it’s only inches away anyways
