Would anybody happen to know what this is on my leaf?I've...

Hi Brandi! You don’t have any info on your plant id tag. I had a Calathea and had the worst time keeping it alive no matter what I did. But here’s some info for you on the brown spots… β€œto fix the browning leaves on your Calathea Beauty Star, you must adjust your environmental and watering routines, as Calatheas are highly sensitive to moisture quality, humidity, and airflow. Identify the Cause- Crispy, Brown Leaf Edges: This is usually a sign of low humidity or tap water sensitivity. Tap water contains minerals like fluoride, salts, and chlorine that build up in the leaves and cause them to burn. Large, Mushy Brown/Yellow Spots: This typically indicates overwatering or poor pot drainage, which suffocates the root system. Dry Patches in the Leaf Center: This usually points to sun scorch from direct sunlight hitting the foliage. Tap Water] ──> Switch to Distilled or Rainwater ──> Flushes minerals
[Dry Air] ──> Add a Humidifier/Pebble Tray ──> Mimics rainforest
[Soggy Soil]──> Let Top 1-2 Inches Dry Out. I hope this helps!
