Hello everyone! Just wanted to ask if you think this monstera needs repotting or moving some monstera to a new pot? My monstera has been growing rapidly ever since I got them 4 mos. Ago! Im worried its not healthy for them to stay in this pot? Any thoughts? Or should I just leave it?

Check the roots! If she is rootbound, then it’s time for a repot. I know what they all say about monsteras liking to be rootbound, but most times that isn’t true. Usually whenever they give off smaller leaves it’s a notice it’s very likely rootbound. If she has a good bit of room in that pot, I say leave her for a little while longer before repotting. If she \*is\* rootbound, go up abt 1-2 inches in a pot!

Agreed

the smaller leaves can also be because of a lack of light. i have seen plenty of large monsteras in (relatively) small pots, but i would recommend splitting the plants up since there seems to be more than one in the pot
