Tiny yellow spot?

My A.'Platinum' has a yellow spot on it's newest leaf, help? 😭 It's the first time it gave me an issue as such, a bit concerning for me. No signs of pests, no direct sunlight, although i did water a day earlier by accident, but the soil was dry to the first inch at that time, and some strong monsoon winds cane through my window, knocked it over. Pls help i'm worried 😭😭😭. Am I overreacting, maybe, but i never want to deal with anything fungal #AlocasiaAddicts #Alocasia #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #help

Keep a close eye on it. It doesn’t look like anything to be extremely worried about - as of yettt 😅 might just be the first one that will be headed out at some point!

If it gets bigger and develops a yellow “halo” definitely cut it off and isolate.

@paigejacobi I'm dosing a foliar spray-on fert meant for both indoor and veggies, wiping off the excess after use and speaying on the soils too. It's organic frass once a week supposedly fights disease and activates growth as well. The components are as following [in mg/L]:
N: 189
P: 45
K: 63
Ca: 63
Mg: 21
B: 1.326
Fe: 6.63
Zn: 0.588
