Yes. Is the soil getting to dry out between watering?

#### Adrian Gonzalez antwortete am 2023-11-05

Yes I’ve been letting it the last few times. Is that good to do?

#### KD 🪴 antwortete am 2023-11-06

Yea, planta says Monsteras like to dry out between watering, so I’ve been doing that more recently, and occasionally snoozing my watering schedule until my soil is dryer. Subsequently mine had popped out 4 new leaves in the last month.

Have you moved its location recently? I’d say it wasn’t getting enough light. My leaves didn’t have splits for the longest time, until I put it under a grow light. Now it has big and beautiful leaves with splits on each side!

#### Adrian Gonzalez antwortete am 2023-11-05

Do you recommend having it close to light how it is in my picture or get a grow light

#### Kari antwortete am 2023-11-05

I’d say leave it there, as it’s getting good light next to that window, and keep your eye on it as it grows new leaves. Watch for the splits, and if you’re not getting them on both sides, then I’d recommend getting a grow light. Do you fertilize it as well?

Are you fertilizing?

### Adrian Gonzalez kommentierte am 2023-11-20

I am not fertilizing. Do you recommend? If so which one is good for monsteras?
