Help my 2.5 year old Montera Delicioso plant has a problem. It got a new leaf, but when the leaf went to open, it caught itself on its own stem and started ripping.. If you look at this photo, there is a tear in the bottom of this leaf that is not even open. What should I do? Just leave the leaf alone and see what happens or either something I could put on that tear?

I had this issue with my monstera I got a few months ago. I heard of using a warm paper towel to draped over the top of the leaf for about an hour, it worked great. Since then I’ve used a humidifier set at 60% humidity by my babies and have had an issue with leaves opening.
