Any and all help welcome!!! I got my Thai Cont’ Monstera back in 2024 and it was itty bitty, ended up growing a lot more leaves within a month which is the right photo. But after I repotted it to a bigger pot because I noticed he was root bound, I may have gone way too big in size because I got a little too happy 😅 Now, Stellar just has one of his original leaves that looks super sad and mellow, and just recently pushed out a new leaf this past month. How can I help him?? He’s one of my first dream plants so i really want to help him thrive. Yes, he’s watered throughly with filtered water like he loves. Yes, theres drainage. Yes, he’s in good light and yes, he’s warm. :(

Finally did a repot, check out those roots! This took 3 months to get rootbound (last repot was in Jan) 🖤

I just bought my first Thai Constellation, and she is officially my most expensive plant baby yet at $120. Naturally, I am now emotionally attached and slightly terrified. 😂 I absolutely love her, but she had about an hour drive home on a sunny Oregon day. When I got home, I noticed some of her leaves curling inward. I assumed it was just stress/shock from the drive and the new environment, so I planned to let her fully dry out before giving her a good watering. Over the next few days, though, she started to droop a little. Yesterday I checked the soil with a moisture meter and was getting mixed readings in different spots, so I went ahead and gave her a thorough watering. I really don’t want to accidentally hurt her, so I’d love any Thai Constellation tips. A few questions: Should I wait to repot until she acclimates to my home? Could low humidity be part of the curling/drooping issue? Would you recommend getting a humidifier? What helps encourage new leaf growth without stressing her out? Any and all advice is welcome. I want this dramatic little queen to thrive.

My beautiful Thai Con. Got her in December last year, she was only as high as the 2 bottom leaves. Now look at her. And another leaf on the way. I decided early on I wanted all leaves facing the same way, so I have been training her since I got her.

One of Monty’s big leaves has had this brown for a good while now, but all the new shoots for the plant and green and healthy..did something happen to this leaf that shocked it? Should I remove the leaf? If so should I cut just the leaf head or the entire stem?

Eek! I went to repot and separate my monstera and noticed that one of my newest leaves that were growing has broken off. Do I cut the stem off or leave it alone?

The leaf my Monstera gave me at the beginning of January VS. the leaf that is currently growing/opening out of said leaf. 🥰🫶

Does Mike need a moss pole..? And where is best to attach the supports to the pole if needed? 🌱

Had two leaves a few months back. Started using grow light and she loved it. Will transfer a bit to soil soon. Love an albo plant. Stupid variegations coming in 🔥

Hiiii I’m new to the monstera community, i got this new monstera a couple days ago and notice some damage to the leaves. Should I just cut them so that the plant can focus on growth? And should I separate these plants to give them more room to grow so they can get bigger ?

Looking for some advice on propagating. I’ve never propagated any of my different monsteras before, and ofc decided to start with the albo. I cut it beneath the node and have it in RO water as that’s what I have besides well water and it’s what I use for all of my other plants and have had no issue. Should I include a little liquid fertilizer in my water? Or should it be fine how I have it right now? Any advice is welcome❤️

I’m new to the Monstera plants and picked up a Thai Constellation. I am so paranoid of root rot as I learn to take care of it. How does she look? She’s getting a new leaf right now but I worry about the soil.

My bittiest baby bulbasaur is here😍 I’m so stinking excited. I haven’t done anything with him because I don’t want to shock him anymore than the new environment will but in the coming days what should I do? He’s under a grow light and I have all the things to make a good aroid soil mix. He’s my first Monstera and my dream variety so I’m determined to keep him alive.

My monsters is 50 inches tall and thriving. It is in an 11 inch tall and 11 inch across po t. Should I consider reporting it into a larger pot?
