Hi! I am so new to Monstera. This is my first one which I got a couple of months ago at the nursery. It doesn’t look very happy but I’m not so sure what to do! I mist and water as per the Planta app. I also added some water with stones underneath the pot to add more humidity.
Could she be over watered? I’m curious how much sun she gets. I usually let my monsteras get pretty dry before I drench them and they do great.

Skip the misting - it can cause fungal issues. As the other comment said, make sure to let the soil dry before watering. Also Monsteras do well with a lot of light. An East-facing window would be ideal (direct sun in the morning, bright indirect sun throughout the day)

Monsteras love light. You’ll want it next to the window. Light will help it produce big leaves. Water when top bit of soil is dry. You can always bottom water so the plant is able to take up what it needs

Yeah it doesn’t look like it gets enough light the poor thing, just move it to a brighter spot near a window mines thriving at a window with partial light all day

Agree with everyone else. More light! Also I find the Planta app leans toward over-watering so use with a water meter or a wooden bbq stick to check moisture before you water.
