What is causing my leaf to look like this?

*Dearly Depotted* · 01-21-2021, 09:10 PM

I just noticed this today. I don’t know why there is whitish/see through like spots on my one leaf. The other leaves on the plants are okay. What could be causing this? What do I do about it? Any thoughts/ideas? Thanks so much in advance for any help!

Could also be a the beginning of nitrogen deficiency ... try misting the leaf and the rest of the plant with miracle grow daily and see if the white spots turn green again. .... I've had this to happen a couple of times with my in-ground nanas. The misting cured the problem with in days.

I would never have thought of nitrogen deficiency! How about that! Alrighty, I’ll definitely start to mist the whole plant with miracle grow today! Fingers crossed! Glad to hear that this fixed your problem before by the way! Thanks as always for your help! I truly appreciate it!
