Good morning, I need help my monstera keeps getting these leaves. I cut the off and some how it reappears. What I’m I doing wrong.😑

Leaf browning like this is usually, underwatering or too much sun. It can also be low humidity but I find that Delicios don’t usually care about humidity as much.

Thank you

Would you recommend watering under the bottom of the plant or over on top of the soil?

Bottom watering lets the plant take what it wants you just want to make sure you dump any remainder. It also helps keep gnats from tracking the moisture. I like terracotta stakes for my Monstera. I bury them and keep a wine bottle full in the stake at all times. I am not a drinker but I just asked people for their bottles and I get them for free all the time 😁 Pictured is my Elephant Ear but I use these in a lot of plants
