Should I be concerned about the new growth leaves having red dots? If so, what does this mean? I’ve been following Greg’s water recommendations and watering with miracle grow water mixed for indoor plants. Sits in south facing window.

@Bfullen Welcome to the Greg community! They will fade over time. It is called edema and it is when the plant has absorbed a large amount of moisture and the cells burst in the leaves leaving the red marks you see. It is normally caused by inconsistent watering.
