This plant of mine and I are going to drive you all crazy. Here is my question of the day. When I brought this monstera home, it was 2 plants planted in opposite directions. It drove me nuts. I seperated the 2 in the pot. Both are doing well but I have a feeling not to their full potential. Getting 2 main stems to site correctly is a challenge. lol ... The pot is large, the soil fills half of the depth. Since I separated the plants, a lot of work is happening under the soil as far as root system repair and growth, plus she ( or they ) are giving me new growth on top and that I think is why the plant isn't looking 110%  
With all of that being said- would it be smart to put these 2 in separate smaller pots and maybe put them back together later, like after winter? Am I just overthinking all of this? Maybe just keep them together but go down in pot size to allow root growth... What would you do if you want a BIG and healthy monstera for years and years to come?

i’d leave them as is, repotting will cause more stress and less growth! i’d just be patient and then top cut when they’re getting big
