Hey y’all! I noticed today that there is a split in the base of my Alocasia Polly. Have any of you experienced this? I’m thinking it’s because it’s too moist near the leaves maybe? I don’t see any pests or anything so don’t think it’s that. There was a leaf above the split that I just pulled off to let it air out. Maybe water got trapped in between the leaf and base? What do y’all think?
