The way they’re clumped together looks like aphids

Looks like bug poop to me. I’d check around for aphids or worms.

Whatever it is, I hit it with neem this morning and now it’s all brown 💯💪🤗

Did you start that from a bulb?

#### ccmurr4y svarte den 2023-07-18

I did! Planted on Mother’s Day. I’ve also got this Polly I’ve been nursing from a bulb since my dog broke it in January. They aren’t kidding when they say alocasias are slow growers.

I’ve never saw them planted outside of the soil. I cover mine with soil. My Black Magic ones are taking forever.
