    Question Brown spots on my dend.

    Hi,

    Are these brown spots caused by too much light ? Or are these bugs.
    What should I do with them?

    Dess.

    Looks like a burn, not a bug.

    I'd agree...looks like too much sun. Try moving them into the sun a little slower.

    Try not to leave water drops on the leaves after you water if the plant will get direct sunlight. The water drop will work as a magnifier to the sun and burn the leaf.

    Cheers,
