It’s Herman Monstera, again!!! (I’m actually watching the Munsters right now! 😂) Is the bamboo stick and string combo gentle on his biggest leaf? It was sagging slightly…

You’ll want to tie/support monstera’s at their thick base, not on the leaf. It is OK for the leaf to lean forward. I’d move the string a bit lower right under where the big leaf splits. Kind of near its base. It can be bad to tie directly on each leaf
