What are these spots?
Just repotted my peperomia and noticed these dark spots on just the underside of the leaves. Is this normal or is something wrong?

The dark spots on the underside of your Peperomia leaves could be caused by a few different issues. One possibility is edema, which occurs when the plant absorbs more water than it can transpire, leading to cell rupture and causing small dark spots on the leaves. Another potential cause could be fungal or bacterial infections, which can sometimes occur after repotting if the plant is exposed to excessive moisture or poor airflow. Lastly, physical damage during the repotting process might also lead to dark spots. Make sure the plant is not being overwatered, and check for signs of pests or further spread of the spots. If the spots grow or multiply, you might want to treat the plant with a fungicide or consider improving air circulation.
@Gustavo thank you!!
