I’m new to plants and he is my baby. He is doing good but very droopy. I have had him for a couple of years and I LOVE him. Any advice? Is he ok? He seems to like his new spot in the house. I just don’t want to kill him.

This could be over or under watering. Is the soil moist?
0개 좋아요I just watered it today. The soil was dry. I usually water him weekly but not saturate him
0개 좋아요Also looks like it wants some sort of support. Trellis, moss pole, etc.
좋아요 1개I tried but I’m afraid of breaking the branches. They are super thick and super strong.
0개 좋아요you won’t break it — even if you do, it will keep growing if you give it better conditions. look them up in their natural habit, they are prolific
0개 좋아요Could be worth taking a cutting and trying to put that on some sort of support so it’s not sprawling all over
0개 좋아요It needs light & support — it’s very leggy. I’d chop and propagate and start over. Monstera deliciosa is very hardy as long as it hasn’t been overwatered, and this doesn’t appear to be.

💯 % agree. This one needs a reset. Chop and prop. Start over. Give the extras away to friends.
좋아요 1개If you’re looking for a good resource Kill This Plant is great for all things monstera. Initially I had been worried about getting rougher with my monsteras ie. propagating, putting a support on it etc. but like others have said monsters are quite resilient and if you were to do either a propagation or adding a good support, AND lots of natural light (like right up or 1-2 ft away from a window or using a grow light) this monstera should be good to go 👍 please let me know if you have any questions
좋아요 1개There’s nothing wrong with your plant, the leaves look green and healthy. You simply need to give the plant a support to climb on like all monsteras need.
