Hi all! I found (what I’m assuming is) a baby monstera in an alley about a month ago and she recently put out a new leaf that’s getting so big! Hoping it ✨is✨ a monstera💅🏼

Hey everyone 👋🏼 Just chasing some advice on the distance of my grow light to my thai con. It’s a sansi 36w bulb and is approx 80cm from the tallest leaf. Is this a good distance or should it be closer/further away? Thanks!

Hi all! I’m very new to monsteras. I took this section of my monstera from its mother plant, roots in tack and healthy as far as I’m aware. I It’s sprouting new growth, but I think the leaf in the 3rd picture is about to yellow. I’m seeing a lot more veins and have noticed it’s color loss since repotting. I also notice the stems up top are a little paler compared to the rest of the stem. I fear the mother plant isn’t too hot either as she was treated for pests, and I wanted to try to keep a part of her just in case she didn’t survive. I have a mini monstera that’s doing absolutely phenomenal. Do I take off yellowing leaves if it happens? Any tips on keeping leaves happy? Am I scared of nothing and just slightly attached bc the mother plant is my first monstera? Thank you in advance! 😂❤️

Hey guys! My workplace has a monstera out front but is evidently a bit neglected. Any ideas on simple things I could do to make it look better? It’s not my plant so I can’t repot or do any major changes… I believe it gets watered weekly, we’re in a humid climate and it gets a strong sea breeze sometimes, the plant is undercover but has strong sun on the side close by. It looks like it recently gave a new leaf but is already starting to crisp up :( Thanks!

Does anyone know why my Thai constellation’s leaves keep browning like this? When I first got her my cat chomped her leaves I moved her immediately onto a shelf my cat can’t reach under my grow light. I did repot her as soon as I brought her home and then once again like 2 weeks later. (Which was definitely my bad, she was my first plant and so I was learning as I went) The grow light is on its lowest setting as to not scorch the leaves and is more than 12 inches away from the plant. Only one of the leaves is still in good shape but the rest are looking quite rough. Any help is appreciated! ☺️

Help, I have had a Monstera plant for three years or so and I don’t know what happened but all the leaves are up above and I’ll take a photo it is two plants. I want to take the plants apart, cut them and reroot them and then replant them in a new pot together. Once you see the photo you’ll see that my leaves are way up in the air. I don’t know what happened to my plant, but I don’t like its look. Please give me advice on how to cut them how long to root them in water what is the best water so on and so forth any advice would be greatly appreciated

I’m at my wits end with my monstera. She has moss poles, a humidifier, but she hasn’t produced a new leaf in at least 5 months. Any advice on what to do differently to make her happy would be much appreciated

My monstera had Thrips, it’s been a couple of months with me dealing with it and using a homemade neem oil solution, and I’m happy to say that I have not seen any pests on her and this new leaf opened up with no sign of thrips! It’s been a journey and she’s still on her way to 100% health but I had to Share because I almost gave up and I’m so happy I saved her ! ♥️♥️🥰🥰

Finally got the courage to repot my little Thai. He's been giving me a new leaf each month so I didn't want to mess with it. Safe to say it really needed the upgrade 😅

How do I save this plant? My cat bit into the stems of this Thai Monstera and I didn’t notice the other stems that was coming out, how do I remedy this plant so it’s not gonna die?

Sorry guys I know this doesn’t pertain to actual plant care but I need help identifying which one of these is a monstera Thai con. I personally think it’s option 1 but Amazon has them listed all wrong so I wanted some expert opinions before I purchased :)

Hi, I have these two gorgeous mini monsteras that I got in the same pot. Hoping to repot them separately but I don’t want to separate them wrong and accidentally kill them. Any tips?? Also, I have a new leaf unfurling, should I wait until it has unfurled before repotting?

my little monstera tissue cultures are finally starting to grow up 🥹 (Feb 26➡️today)

Hi everyone! I wanted some opinions on my baby and see if she is doing okay. I also wanted to know where should I insert a climbing stick because I cannot tell. Please help!

Is my Thai Con okay? I’ve had it since February and it’s putting out its 3rd leaf. I think it seems ok… but the leaves are pointing upwards (towards the light) and the two newest leaves don’t seem to be firming up; the two newest leaves being 1-3 months old at this point. The smaller baby leaves at the base seem to be browning (pictured).. is this normal for those little leaves to die off? I give it a good water every 2 weeks or so, and it gets 10ish hours under a grow light. Maybe too much light?

Our newest leaf finally opened! I love this plant! It’s definitely our favorite!

**Reviving My Monstera: A Two-Year Journey** Two years ago, I rescued a struggling Monstera from the clearance section at Home Depot—just three leaves and a $9 price tag. It was in rough shape, but I saw the potential and decided to give it a fresh start. To support its recovery, I **repotted** it into fresh soil, ensuring it had the right nutrients and space to grow. I consistently **maintained** it with regular misting, leaf cleaning, and careful monitoring of its environment. Positioned to the left of my bay window, it receives just the right balance of indirect but strong sunlight. Over time, it began growing vigorously, and once it gained strength, I started pruning to further encourage its development. Following **Planta’s maintenance tips**—plus a few clever YouTube hacks—helped me nurse it back to life. Now, two years later, it has grown wildly and beautifully. It’s still a bit untamed, but that’s part of its charm. Watching it flourish has turned into a rewarding hobby, proving that with the right environment and patience, even the most neglected plants can bounce back.

I was gifted this monestera in the current pot a year ago. I’m not great with plants yet so looking for advice. Should I repot ? Should I trim the dead stems ?
