I mist my Alocasia Frydek every morning and it has been doing fine. It even opened a new leaf. This is the soil that it came with about 2 weeks ago. I did notice one droopy leaf but it's on the opposite side of my grow light so I think it's just going to die off (should I snip?)

Mainly, I'm wondering whether this web-looking thing is a cause for concern such as some kind of pest? It has been there all week.

Update: I filmed a video of a worm-like thing eating something with its "head" at the bottom of this screenshot. I don't know how to upload the whole video to Lemmy.

Pretty sure this is all correct. I had spider mites that killed a small tree I bought to be a bonsai and it looked like this as well. I would get a small magnifying glass or handheld microscope and take a closer look.

Hey, I added an updated photo of a worm-like thing. Idk if this is another pest or related.
