I asked in another group about her one leaf that is looking a little wonky and kind of warped looking. Someone suggested a repot saying the soil isn’t chunky enough. While I tend to agree I am SUPER hesitant to repot her as she clearly isn’t root bound, not really having complications other than the slightly weird leaf, and seems to be thriving.

I would repot this for sure. Most of these leaves are looking a little limp, these roots need more air #### ValleyoftheSun님이 2024-05-21에 답변했습니다. Thank you. I just want to make sure it’s a must before I take the plunge 🫣 ### Riley님이 2024-05-21에 댓글을 남겼어요. You can give it fresh soil without sizing up the pot #### ValleyoftheSun님이 2024-05-21에 답변했습니다. I am definitely planning to just repot in the same container. Thank you! ### Krista님이 2024-05-21에 댓글을 남겼어요. I think too that if you are as gentle as can be and maybe just add in some “chunk” to the existing soil without disturbing the roots too much, another repot wouldn’t be as stressful than as if you were cleaning off all of the old soil from the roots. Seeing this thread though I think I may need to do this as well as my leaves are limp. I did add orchid bark and perlite to the soil, but maybe monsteras need more than I added? 🤔 #### ValleyoftheSun님이 2024-05-21에 답변했습니다. I ended up doing as gentle a repot with chunkier soil last night and it was REALLY hard to get the roots to separate from the existing soil so I added what I could new and put her back in with the root ball still primarily covered in existing soil. It was pretty chunky from what I could tell but maybe not enough I guess. I’m stressed she’s going to die (she’s the most expensive plant I’ve ever bought) but hoping just that little change will help whatever was going wrong. I ended up putting a humidifier in the room as well as I’m in AZ and our air is crazy dry. #### Krista님이 2024-05-22에 답변했습니다. Yeah, I do think they like humidity. I live in south Louisiana and my ambient house humidity is 55-65%, so that is one good thing about the humidity here 😆. I may be moving to Arizona though and I will have to buy a lot of mini humidifiers for all of my humidity loving plants. --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
