Does it have drainage holes?

#### Indy replied on 2024-04-27

Yes it does.. before I repotted it always drained fine

what soil do you use? for my monsteras I make my own soil that’s very chunky. I use orchid bark, pumice stone, and horticultural charcoal with a tiny bit of succulent soil

Thanks! I’ll try that
