Several leaves with these spots. What do we think?

12ft to light, indirect
10” pot with drainage
Last watered 1 week ago
My experience is that it doesn’t have enough humidity.
Hi @NiceRhoeogolden.
I have had these same spots reoccuring every winter. I haven't quite figured out why they appear. And only during winter. But I guess it has something to do with the changes of seasons that it doesn't like, I read somewhere that it could be similar to a "cold"πŸ˜…
This year I had less on my largest plant, but still got some spots on the next largest one. I know the humidity drops in winter, guess it could have something to do with dry top-soil or build-ups in the soil tooπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ It might be some form of fungal or bacterial infection, and when the plant is weaker in winter (or from other reasons) the spots emerges.

When spring comes and new leaves emerges without the spots I usually just cut them off and forget about the spots untill next winterπŸ˜…
Thank you!
@LavenderFeilds Thank you!
@NiceRhoeogolden your card says 12 ft.- north window? And how big is your plant for a 10 inch pot? (My babies like to be snug in their pots). I get those when I overwater and my roots start going south. I’m a wicked overwaterer and have my babies in terracotta or non-glazed clay so the moisture evaporates quicker.- mostly I just control my overwatering (hahah) and I have them 4 ft from west window, cut off the affected leaves and watch new beautiful ones emerge. This is my experience.
