Hi! Happy to have found you! Perhaps edema. Perhaps it’s the oldest leaf and because you have a new one coming it’s using the nutrients to the new leaf and discarding the old. This is a normal process. I’ve had this happen to me and I don’t worry because if it’s giving me growth and the roots are happy then I figure all is well. Edema happens mostly with inconsistent watering. If you ever see little droplets of water on the tips of your leaves in the morning that could be a sign. I’m also new to the hobby. About a year and a half now. Anthurium have become my obsession and through trial and error I have learned a lot. Hope this helps. Happy growing!

Oh my gosh thank you so much for commenting and for subscribing to my channel! I have seen a lot of my plants drip water in the mornings! I try to be consistent in watering it’s never a 3 day or 4 day though it’s when is it not wet and my finger tells me. I hope you are right about the edema and that is all it is. Everything looked really good in the root system. Thank you again for helping me and watching my channel!

With anthuriums as long as they are giving growth they are usually good they will take a lot of energy out of older leaves to make new which will make the smaller older leaves yellow. as far as the specks anthurium leaves are super sensitive and fragile. Even touching one emerging or being rubbed up against during shipping could leave a scar on the front or back or both of the leaf.i think this was shipping scars as I call em. Edema would look like a bruise usually the dripping of water is called guttation and is basically your plant sweating never had this with my Anthurium but I guess it could happen. I use osmocote also and have rooms of Anthurium lol they are usually heavy feeders and really require a good fertilizer but a lot could burn them because again leaves and roots are sensitive. I usually just put a few balls in the soil and don't mix in my soil. The dried root at the top was probably an Ariel root during growth that rotted from too much water or dried out due to not enough probably at the greenhouse. I think you did good just putting him back in. also leaving yellowing leaves on or I would because if you cut that off while the plant is using it for energy it may start taking it from another again casing yellowing. Hope this helps 😊. You got this, I don't know how many plants I've killed learning lol.

@@theeclecticgent502 Wow thank you so much for reaching out to me and explaining this so in depth. I guess it makes sense a new leaf would need energy from another. Will that older leaf die off is that how it works? Only my Palidiforum sweats, my Queens do not. My Monstera, Alocasia and Colocasia’s sweat as I call it. I will for sure be careful on fertilizing I use Jack’s Fertilizer 20-20-20 every two weeks it says. I will simply use it every other watering. Again, thank you so much for watching and reaching out in the comments!
