Why is my Thai con not growing? I have had it for like 3-4 months now and not one new leaf! What should I do?

They are slow growers.

Monsteras prioritise root growth over leaf development when they have ample space in their pot. They prefer a snug fit, so based on the picture, this could be why you’re not seeing much leaf growth atm

How much light is it getting? Mines in bright and grows well. That being said, they are a slower grower than a normal M.deliciosa

They also don’t grow in the winter. Mine has been dormant for about 3 months now. Do not worry, just keep taking good care of it and make sure it gets LOTS of light
