How do monstera adansonii best thrive? I’ve had a cutting for 6 months and it’s growing suuuper slowly.

They love bright light with a dabble of east sun. And water when dry. They also like moss poles but i dont have one on mine yet. But where do you have it? East , west, south or north facing? It might also need a little bit of fertilizer. I give all my plants "Liquit Dirt" it's like vitamins for plants. They do really well on it. I use it every time i water.

I moved mine from bright west to an east window with morning sun. I lost the first 2-3 leaves I think from being scorched so I moved it to a little less light.
