Meet Modesty my monstera… Any tips… prune? More support? Less support? Shes growing a bunch with a new grow light. You can see the leaflets coming up. My concern is supporting it/ trying to help it thrive like all of yours!! Thanks in advance :)
The grow light is definitely a good move, I’d say don’t repot/change too much else for now, let it thrive under the grow light for several months and grow more leaves first.

If you want more of those big leaves, you should look into a different kind of moss pole. The one you have is like an external support, but if you get one that’s filled with moss, she’ll root right into it (like she would a tree in the wild) and start growing much bigger healthier leaves. Lots of light helps with that too. (This is my baby Elanor. Her biggest leaf is 11” long)
Fantastic i shall look into this for sure!!

How often and close is your grow light? Maybe mine is too close or something bc she doesn’t love it, according to leaves!
1 likeGrow light 4-6 hours about 10 feet away. I live on the north facing side of my building so a lot of indirect light

I think she needs more light! I have my grow lights on 12 hours a day and they're no more than 2 or 3 feet, depending on the plant.
