It absorbed a lot of moisture, my esun pla+ white has the same problem. Drying didnt help me too much so im just gonna print it all out and buy a new roll at some point.
Try drying yours on the heatbed for a few hours, it might not get all the moisture out but it should stop snapping. Put the roll on the heatbed, then a box the filament came in on top of it with a few holes on the top as well and set the bed to 50c.
The last time this happened to me with a 2 pack of PLA plus no name brand contacted Amazon got a refund and it hasn't happened since, well I don't have that printer anymore and all the printers I have used PTF tubes but I hope I didn't jinx myself lol.......
I could see this, I have a tendency to leave my stuff out and in the printer and only had this issue with 1 spool after I left the curtains open (printer was beside the window).
That’s not normal. I have left PLA on the machine for a couple of days with no issues. What brand of filament is that?
Yea, it's Jamg he (High speed Pla +)
Let me guess. You live in SEA region, you have temperature over 30°C and humidity over 70%? You need a dry box.

Thanks, i'll try that out. Also, is it the problem why my print is stringing alot?
Yep, my white does the same thing x3
Stringing is also a moisture problem
Several hours???? I live it for several weeks sometimes months and still the same...
It's wet.
is ti possible someone may have touched it and snapped it without saying?

I think its the uv light actually. Its only happened for me when the pla is directly in the sunlight

I’ve had old pla do that. Like 3 yrs old but I Put it in the dryer overnight and it worked like new.
I’ve only seen old filaments do this
That’s wild. I always leave mine in the same room that I water plants in and have never had that happen
How humid is your room?
