Leaves turning brown

Hi All!

I just purchased a "Playful" Plumeria 2-3 weeks ago and all of a sudden there are 2 leaves that are starting to turn brown and I'm not sure what could be the cause. When I brought it home I re-potted it into a 14" container. This is what I'm using below:

Soil: Miracle Grow Cactus Palm and Citrus Potting Mix (Fertilizer Analysis 0.06 - 0.02 - 0.04)

Fertilizer: Miracle Gro Water Soluble Bloom Booster Flower Food (Fertilizer Analysis 15-30-15)

I water when the first 2" of the soil feels a little dry and use the fertilizer every 7-14 days per the instructions.

I have an 3 in 1 soil tester and tested the PH level which reads 7 almost 8. From what I understand Plumeria plants like more acidic soil between 6-6.7 so I added some Espoma Organic Soil Acidifier to the soil to bring it down.

To make sure there are no bugs I sprayed with Garden Safe Insecticidal Soap Insect Killer. I have provided some pics below and if anyone has any helpful advise I would appreciate it!
