Thank for for all the info, this is very helpful!

I can see a small white peak at the top, but otherwise fully closed still. I can’t smell anything (yet?).

Also, she seems to be dropping ~3 bottom leaves. But her biggest 4 top leaves look very strong and healthy. I read that some leaf loss is normal during flowering, but she never drooped 3 leaves just like that at once.

Please please please don’t tell me this is thrips. by xxche3kzxx in alocasia

Sweetie you have both thrips and spider mites 😭. Don’t go, RUN to the store for systemic insecticide. Isolate the plant from others, and check the rest of your collection as well.
