New FLF growth

This is my first fiddle and it just started shooting out new leaves. Is it normal for new growth to be spotted like this?
0ft to light, direct
8โ€ pot with drainage
Last watered 2 weeks ago
Hey!

The red spots are known as edema caused by too much water which essentially bursts some of the plants cells

Don't panic too much, as the leaf matures this should disappear. Just be a bit careful about overwatering. FLF's are kind of like the baby bear of the plant world, they prefer soil moisture to be not too wet and not too dry, just right.
Thank you! I bottom watered last week and let it soak for a while and then drain. Iโ€™ll try a shorter soak next time!
