Orange Spots on Callisia Repens

Hello, I recently cut up my pink panther and essentially propagated the entire plant bc she got too leggy. Now, it’s got roots and it definitely growing. The leaves are a good distance apart so I think she’s got enough light. I water roughly every week, but I am using a moisture meter/chopstick test before watering. I’m seeing these orange spots on a good amount of the leaves, and I’m not sure what it is. Anyone have any ideas? #help #HappyPlants #CallisiaPinkPanther #CreepingInchPlant
My guess would be that these spots are caused by the water getting on her leaves. Tradescantia leaves are very sensitive to water and prone to brown spots. I bottom water mine, or carefully pour the water under the leaves directly on the dirt. @stephongreg is the expert! πŸͺ΄
