# I need some advice. I repotted this monstera a week or so ago and…

_Posted by Jdewi on 2026-07-31_

I need some advice. I repotted this monstera a week or so ago and added some moss poles to give it some support. These new leaves were already showing before the repot but now I'm concerned about how they look. They are all lot smaller than the other lraves and seem a lot lighter and are not unfurling as I would expect.

Do I just need to be pateint or is something off? Please advise!

leaves continue to grow after unfurling, they only stop once they harden. i wouldn't worry about the size. repots can be hard on new leaves but the next ones should be a-okay

And they are lighter when they are fresh. They’ll continue to expand, harden, and darken up. Don’t stress!
