# Hello, I’m new to plants and I bought this monstera and it said it…

Hello,  
I’m new to plants and I bought this monstera and it said it should be kept in indirect sunlight so I’m putting it behind this shade. However it doesn’t look very healthy so idk, I’ve been making sure I don’t overwater it. Can anyone help.

How long have you had it?

If you have TikTok/youtube I highly recommend the person TannerThePlanter. He talks about the confusion of light and it makes SO much sense. I would put that monstera in an open window where it can see the sky
