Need help, what's going on here?

Hi there. I'm a guy with the only experience I have with green is cutting the grass. I bought 3 house plants within the last week and all 3 are starting to look very funny. I have no clue what's happening to them. I've attached some pics where hopefully someone can help me. thanks

 

were do you have them in your house ??... are they next to a heater ??.. they look like they are turning to mush from a heater .

or it might be a fungus .. not sure ..

the dragon tree is next to my TV and a doorway. The other 2 are in a corner on either side of my sofa. The second plant in the picture is probably 1 1/2 feet from a floor vent and next to the window with the shades shut.

 

Did you lave them in the cold while getting them home? are they too wet? how much light do they get?

 

they were inside the truck for transport and i've watered them twice in the week i've had them with the second time being today. they're not getting any direct sunlight.

 

Are they getting any filtered light? Are they in dark shade? Most tropical plants prefer indirect filtered light that is moderately bright. Just not direct sunlight.

 

You need to let them dry out before watering them again, and get they some light.

 

just a question do you have any pets? are you watering them with cold water very cold water can put the plant threw shock and then being exposed to the sun that could be the problem possibly

 

first question would be do you have any pets? and if not it looks like you have leaf spot it is caused by fungus . Fungal spores are spread from plant to plant by splashing water. The spores germinate on the wet leaf within a matter of hours you have more spots. Clip off badly spotted leaves. Keep foliage dry to prevent spreading if it continues go to your local garden center and buy some fungicide containing chlorothalonil

 

I have 2 dogs. will those day light bulbs work, to replace the sunlight? After they dry out, how often should I water them? thanks for all the help.

 

It does look to me like cold damage

What was the temperature outside when you bought them (below freezing?)? Did the store wrap them before you took them out to your truck? Even if they were wrapped, any leaves against the wrapping could still have been frost damaged...worse still if it was windy.
