My Thai Constellation is looking droopy. I was thinking she was thirsty so I watered her yesterday morning and she still looks sad. Does anyone know what’s wrong with her?

How’s the lighting for her?? What type of soil are you using?

#### Bri replied on 2024-10-04

Thissss ^ also have you recently repotted ?

### Chevy commented on 2024-10-04

I got her recently and repotted her then. I just use regular indoor potting soil.. The lighting is pretty bright very first thing in the morning, stays bright and indirect for about 4 or 5 hours. I water it probably 1 a week or two.

I believe the window is East facing..

It might be stress from the repot, I would give it some time. I just repotted my big monstera few weeks back and it’s finally bouncing back. Monsteras like a chunky soil so you might want to add some perlite or bark into regular potting mix. 😇

#### Mads replied on 2024-10-04

Yes, I’d say soil amendments are necessary for a monstera.

#### Pam JR replied on 2024-10-12

Yes am with Chevy, you have to let new plants to acclimate to the new environments first for around 1-2wks separate from the rest of the plants you already have. Pay close attention to her and see what needing. Chunky is monstera middle name, a nice mix of chunky soil either make it yourself or buy the one I use and I like to mix it is Molly’s OMG super good. Make sure the pot you are having it has good drainage. Check also for the roots, is ok to get her put of the por and check it to see what’s happening

#### Pam JR replied on 2024-10-12

Amazon has the Molly’s brand and what I do is mix it with my reg soil I already have here

Probably some chunkier soil and while I don’t have a variegated monstera, mine are very happy in a west window with a few hours of direct sunlight.
