Hello beautiful people, this is my first plant. Its looking good but the leaves are starting to curl in some of the bigger leaves. Should I be worried? Temperature here in the living room is a steady 18-27 degrees C* or 64-80 degrees F*. And there’s a little one emerging too!! So cute 🌱 Thanks for your help in advance. Maybe someday I’ll be the one giving a bit of advice ✨
Hello!! I’m not a Monstera expert but it looks like you have more than one plant in one pot. It looks crowded. I think that when the leaves are curling is because it needs water. Perhaps they are competing for water?

It could be under watering because they do take a lot of water. It could be too cold of a draft. I know when I took mine outside over the summer when it had cooled down, it had caused my leaves to turn over not all of them, but some of them when it gets warmer, they fold back over.

The newer leaves take a bit to harden off, so they look a bit floppy at first. The one looks like a new leaf, so not worrisome. Start with light and water. Make sure it is getting a nice view of the sky. How do you determine if it is ready to be watered? Water when 25-50% dry, giving it a thorough soak when it is time to water.
