Somebody please tell me I have nothing to worry about and this is definitely not thripsā¦. Thoughts?

Itās really hard to see in the picture. The one leaf in the very last photo looks like maybe thereās a thrip on the bottom but itās blurry. The crisping honestly just looks like watering/humidity issues to me. My monstera has this too.

0 gillningarThrips donāt eat random holes and spots into leaves. They eat layers off at a time usually along the tender veins and spreading out. You can see them with a magnifying glass. I agree with Plant Mommy that itās likely a low humidity or watering issue. šŖ“š
2 gillningarThe undersides of the leaves look like edema where the plantās cells burst and releases excess water. It could come from too much watering. It could come from inconsistent watering where the leaves go from too dry and less flexible cells to bursting when the roots finally sends water to the leaves. The remedy is to water when the soil dries. Get good air circulation around the soil to help with evaporation. You can treat with an insecticidal soap if you think you have thrips too. šŖ“š
0 gillningarI didnāt even think to check underneath, the plant is pretty dusty, I looked at it for a good while, and I didnāt really see any of the specks move, but seeing the underside now is really worrying me
0 gillningarThis is on a rhaphidophora I just got from Meijer. I believe a few days maybe a week ago, it is an a low humidity spot, but their leaves were almost flawless when I brought her home. However, I did not really check the underside.- rookie mistake but Iām hoping your answers will all stay the sameš
