I’ve had her home almost 2 weeks. Lots of indirect light and a grow light to supplement. Why is she crying and look at the tips?

    monsteras and other plants will leak excess water out of their leaves. even some of my succulents do it. i would just let her dry out a tad extra before watering her:)

    That's guttation! Its monstera sweat, lol. That's what they do when there's extra moisture either from humidity or watering. Did you repot her after arrival?

      Have not repotted her no. Just gave her the one watering so far. House stays at 21° and humidity around 45%

    The humidity should be good. Check her roots/soil. She may be planted in a soil mix meant for greenhouses. They retain much more moisture than necessary for plants in our homes.

      I wanted to let her settle in before repotting

    I think that's your answer! Probably moisture retention in the soil. No biggie at all. Just let her dry and acclimate. But if she starts sweating like a human on a hot day, I'd just go ahead and repot her early.
