Hello! This is my first time having monstera plants & I’m wondering if the bending of the leaves is normal? I keep them out on my balcony in the shade and I watered them once after having them for a week. The picture of them together is the day I got them and individual ones are today. Please let me know your thoughts! (I’m worried)
curly leaves on a monsterra typically means they need more humidity. are you in a dry area?
0 likes It says 52% humidity today so I think that’s relatively normal? Not too dry not too humid
0 likes hmm. did you notice them curling after you brought them home, or was it like that in the store too? ultimately its not a huge worry, but it does make them look a little funky sometimes 😂
0 likes I actually got them from my mom’s garden! A larger monstera she propagated became these guys haha. They had slight curls but I’m more worried about the bend from their stems, they seem to be drooping a little

I have one outside that looks like that too. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why. I have changed its soil, changed its pot, and added nutrients to the soil. Nothing has made it look better. The roots are long and beautiful, so I don’t know. I am starting to wonder if maybe it is just too hot for it outside (I had it indoors before the summer started).
0 likes Oh no! It is pretty hot in California in the summer so maybe that’s why mine are doing that too
