# Wondering if/how I should prune my monstera? I have 2 new leaves that…

Wondering if/how I should prune my monstera?

I have 2 new leaves that just sprouted from 2 damaged/scorched leaves and wondering if I should remove the damaged/scorched leaves and how??

It’s kind of hard to tell but each damaged/droopy leaf is the second stem from a large nicely fenestrated leaf. So the new leaves are the third in each bunch.

I’m basically torn between leaving everything to get more photosynthesis and removing the droopy leaves to get more nutrients to the new leaves?

Thanks in advance!
