hi guys!! i recently got a 12ā monstera.. and she is beautiful. i have been bottom watering her when 2-3 inches of the top soil is dry, but for some reason i feel like iām underwateringā¦ where some of the stems come out of the soil thereās a few that are browning as if theyāre dry. she gets dry about 2-5 days after i water. do i need to water more? am i over watering?
The plant may be root-bound, so it canāt retain enough water. Have you checked the soil? Also when you water the plant are you really soaking that bb? I am a chronic underwaterer bc im so scared of root rot. But I drown that bb when itās time
2 gillningar i just got it not even a week ago so was trying to let it acclimate a bit more before repotting!! i thought i was really soaking her but next watering im just gonna put her in my showerš
0 gillningar so i donāt think itās rootbound yet but i definitely think sheās wanting a bigger pot so iām gonna be doing that tomorrow! hopefully it helps!
