My Dieffenbachia - the leaves don’t look shiny… they look “dry” - is this the way they should look? Feel?

Have you cleaned it lately?

I would try the top 3:  
Not enough light  
Not enough water  
Not enough humidity

I would think probably leaning more towards humidity or underwatering since it looks like it gets good light! Does it have a grow light? You could try that too!! Sorry for the word vomit
