# hi!! I got this Swiss cheese monstera plant maybe 3 weeks ago..? I’ve…

hi!! I got this Swiss cheese monstera plant maybe 3 weeks ago..? I’ve started to notice that the leaves are starting to yellow, some are starting to curl, and there are brown spots, but not on every leaf. I’m not quite sure what to do, does anyone have any tips on maybe how to fix this from escalating, and or getting worse?

I water Swiss cheese ( that’s what I named the plant ) once every week, and fertilized the plant only once maybe two weeks ago, as my intention is to fertilize once every month. The last time I watered Swiss, was about 4-5 days ago, and is due for a watering on Monday. Where the plant is placed in the photo, isn’t the plants real location, I just thought it would be easier to see the plant, if I took the photo outside.  
Please let me know!!

Check the roots! If they’re mushy and brown trim the damaged ones away and start with fresh soil.

Also, sometimes planta makes me overwater my plants. You would only want to water when it’s mostly dry.

it definitely looks a bit overwatered, i wait til at least half the soil is dry for my monstera adansonii. they are hardy plants so it should be fine even if it has some root rot. like anya said, it’s a good idea to trim any unhealthy roots and refresh the soil. i recently had to chop the entire root ball off my mother’s m. adansonii due to rot and months later it has rerooted and is thriving, so no matter how severe the case i’m sure it’ll be fine with proper care :-)
