# hi all, my monstera still has these black spots and i found some more…

_Geplaatst door marlie op 2023-08-15_

hi all, my monstera still has these black spots and i found some more on a few more leaves, (the spots are on about 6 out of 17 leaves) what do i need to check for? what can i do to stop them/prevent more spots from appearing? any tips or help is greatly appreciated. i really don’t want to lose my monstera as i’m getting a new leaf since i’ve adopted her 🪴🩵

It’s pretty common so don’t worry! Most likely too much/too little watering.

The damage won’t change sadly, it’s there to stay. Just watch the new leaves! If they stay healthy and don’t gain black spots, then you can know that you’re doing a great job!

Check the roots - maybe it’s root rot. It could be from compact soil, under/over watering

thank you all! i’ll definitely keep a check on the new leaves. so far they’re redoing really well
