Random brown spots (not red obviously lol) keep appearing on every single caladium leaf, assuming the plant is toast but was curious if this is brown spot or something else?

It might be a sign of pests or not having enough sunlight
1 me gustaDefinitely no pests luckily! I pruned majority of the leaves off because the spots were growing on some and quarantined it… and the spots started showing up on rest of leaves this week. Do you know if I could just force dormacy and next year it will grow healthy? Or if it is black spot will it carry over?
0 Me gustaDo u know if it is a disease because it might just be a problem that you can fix
0 Me gustaNot certain but it was thriving and then the spots started popping up. They definitely spread once they pop up also
0 Me gustaMy plant also had the same thing and it is in the plant not leaf to leaf
0 Me gustaAre those fungus gnats on the yellow sticky? The larvae eat decaying matter including rotten roots. It could be early root rot. Check the roots for signs of rot. It could be low humidity. We grow caladiums outside typically as edging around a garden bed in South Texas. Humidity levels and heat are high.
0 Me gustaLuckily not fungus nats, just dirt from plant when I was moving it around😂 The pot has hole drilled all up and down the sides also. I’m thinking humidity may be the culprit!
