Hello!  
I’ve been trying to figure out my monstera. Two months ago I changed her soil to Sol chunky soil and placed her in a 6” pot. Her leafs  
are growing large but droopy. What am I doing wrong?

I think it looks very healthy. The leaves get droopy as they get bigger because it’s heavier. The moss pole is there to help keep them upright!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it!

You’re welcome! Newer leaves are also a little flimsier since they are just opening so you should hopefully see them start getting a little sturdier with time :)
