# I moved my monstera to my balcony in early June, I’m in zone 4b. I…

_Posted by Kelsey on 2025-06-30_

I moved my monstera to my balcony in early June, I’m in zone 4b. I moved it when I knew night temps don’t go below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. It has been very hot and it gets maybe full to partial sun. Any ideas why this is happening?? Should I put it back inside or do I just need to water more?

Hiya!! It looks to me like a little bit of leaf burn or scorch is it crispy? If it is I would suggest to move it back if you can when that full sun comes out. Beautiful plant love the fenestrations!

she's sunburnt! take her inside! if you want her to be outside you have to do it gradually so the plant can adjust to the higher levels of UV. it should be a process of 2-3 months, not overnight
