Diagnosis

Diagnose: Calathea Crispy Leaves

Use these observations to decide what to check next.

Start with the leaf underside, then the pot

Fine stippling, webbing, and visible mites justify pest inspection. Yellowing, soft growth, or persistently wet mix also call for a root-zone check.

Missing these signs does not rule out either problem. Leaf position, pot weight, moisture inside the root ball, and recent exposure help choose the next check without establishing a diagnosis from the pattern alone.
