Gang what’s happening to my gollum jade? I’ve had him for 4 years and I’ve never had an issue like this. The spots are only on the indoor facing side of his leaves, and he’s lost a lot more leaves than normal the past month

lowkey looks like a fungal infection. you can try treating with neem oil or try and prevent it from spreading by chopping that part off. i’d ask reddit abt it tho, they’re better at IDing this stuff

I have no idea, I’ve never seen this before. Are the spot wet or dry? Could it be rot, or a type of scale bug?

My first thought was bugs but I haven’t seen any. They’re dry. Unfortunately it’s on the entire plant

Maybe oedema or a fungal infection?? There’s probably something you can try putting on it, but I have no idea what. Good luck <3

Yeah. I don’t have neem oil, but I did remove a lot of leaves today. It’s hard though because it’s on the entire plant so I can’t just remove all the affected part without killing it. Luckily it is growing new leaves though so hopefully if I keep at it it will improve. I also flipped it to expose the black spots to the sun since the side of the leaves facing the window has 0 spots
