I just got this babe a few days ago. She’s in about a 12” pot I think. I’m gonna post photos of the roots and placement in reference to the window.  
I’m wondering if pulling the curtain daily on this west window is enough light. It was soaked when I brought it home and still pretty wet a few days later. Do you think this yellowing and blackening are due to over water? It came from a grocery store. Also, should I repot already, she looks like she’s about to crawl right out of the pot.

i suggest putting it as close to the window as possible, monstera are actually high light plants when placed indoors (mine is directly in a northwest facing window, but some people are able to grow them even in southern exposure)

She’s pushing out five new leaves but one looks to already be dying. Any input?
