To be followed by another question in the comments! Is is common for my monstera to have a few droopy leaves at the bottom? They aren’t limp and don’t feel as if they are under watered but they just look……sad. Do I remove them? How do I remove if I have to?
On the other hand she just made two new leaves so she could just be neglecting the bottom side to keep growing? I have a lot of new growth too. She has minimal browning at the edges of old leaves but I’m sure it’s because of humidity, I mist her multiple times a day to keep her happy and it seems to be working and solving that problem.

What is this? Should I leave it exposed?

Hello! Pruning questions. I have this Monstera, just repotted her today because she was still in a plastic pot from the store and was tipping over in between watering. Folks keep talking about pruning and I’m wondering what happens to her after pruning? Will she get bushier? Will she grow in more directions? Right now she grows from two main stalks, will that change? The stalks are heavy and we are out of room on the plant stakes I have, the height is continuing and needs more vertical support. Is that when folks decide to prune?? She seems quite happy and content, I could let her grow in height in this corner BUT I have been worried about size and told myself no more Monsteras. Then… I found a Thai Constellation which can be seen in the first pic. Haha whoops 🤦🏻♀️🫣 no idea where I’ll put her if she decides she likes this window just as much.
The purple circled leaf is her most recent leaf.. so big and beautiful and look at all the holes! The blue circle is the leaf prior.

Propagating my monstera and have done well so far until I got to this part 😬
Can I separate the 3 leaves?
There are 3 aerial roots (1 per leaf) but I’m not sure where/how to cut them!
Thank you in advance! 🙏🏻

Does anyone have any tips on getting this cutting to survive? I propagated it in water for about 3-4 months and planted it in dirt about a month ago. Is this a normal thing to happen with monstera cuttings? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
(It got watered today)

I’ve been experimenting with some philodendron tissue cultures recently, and I think I’m ready to step up my game. Wish me luck😅
Anyone else into tissue cultures?

I’m gonna propagate my monstera for the very first time and I’m so nervous. I do not want to kill Monte or harm him in any way. I’ve worked very hard to just keep him alive. Haha!!! Plantgirl has been helping me and I think I’m ready. I just want to make sure one last time. I’m gonna make the cut at the internode where the new leaf is starting. That internode…….

What are these brown branches on my monstera? Does this mean shes healthy/unhealthy?

6 years ago I bought a 1 gallon monstera that was labeled as "foliage" at home depot. For the first year it was a house plant, but then while we were doing some construction she got moved to the front yard. By the time the construction was finished about 8 months later she had already started rooting into the ground and seemed happy, so I let her just exist outdoors. Things have now gotten a bit out of control as she's steadily taking over my entire yard. I want to cut her back but am worried about killing her from shock because the stalks have grown so big it is more like taking limbs off a tree than pruning. Any suggestions on how to keep her happy while getting her back at least somewhat under control?

Woke up to new leafs on all 3 of my monsteras💚

I’m so so excited I’m finally a monstera parent however, I need some advice I’ve had it for 2 days now. I usually repot, clean and isolate but so far I haven’t done anything any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Hello! I need some help determining what is happening with my swiss cheese monstera. It was doing just fine, but over the past couple weeks, the new leaves have grown these strange, almost silver looking spots. Does anyone know what this is and how to prevent it? Thank you!

Hi! So I found this beautiful monstera Thai at Walmart! (Can you believe it?!) anyway, she was kinda beat up and I haven’t done absolutely nothing to it .. no repotting or cleaning .. but I was wondering if you guys think I should cut most of her leaves off and start new? Or should I just repot? I’ve never done that so I’d need help to start if that’s what you guys recommend lol thank you!

hey so i am new to indoor plants as of last summer and i got my first monstera from walmart a week ago and had to drive it home 4 hours and waited awhile after to repot (w normal soil and tall/skinny draining pot since i know they like to be snug).
the monstera was obviously stressed so i have it under an east facing window and a bright grow light (2ft away) for 9 hours a day.
I do spray it with water once a day to keep up humidity along with a constant humidifier maybe 6 ft away.
she just got a dark blackish brown spot on a main leaf and i am wondering if i should be concerned for any pests or fungus. mainly if i should segregate it from my other plants nearby (i have pothos, snake plant, english ivy, and alocasia). some of those were rescues, so you may see a crispy leaf or 2 in the photos😅. please lmk if i am overreacting or not, thanks! any any tips would be appreciated.

Hey guys I need some tips for a Swiss monstera, I have it in a chunky soil mix and I keep it humid, it has good lighting but it slowly turns yellow then brown. When I got it, it was full and healthy, I got it from Lowe’s. Then after a few weeks I noticed it started to die. I took it out of the soil they had potted it in, and put it into water to help it root. I also took some clippings. All were thriving in water, once they got roots I planted them into two different pots with chunky soil. One is looking more yellow, and the other is starting to turn yellow. One had a pothos planted with it because I read that they helps them grow. I’m not sure what to do. I can post pictures of them in the comments I don’t have any currently. The pictures on plant currently are from when I got it. It had good drainage and has gotten new leafs but is turning yellow. What do I do? And give any tips you can think of😊 my other monstera is thriving, and it’s in normal soil so I’m so lost..

Hi!! Does anyone know what’s up with my monstera/what I can do?
Recently repotted to a bigger pot as the roots were growing out the bottom, but hasn’t improved. (faded/veiny leaves, droopy, no new growth)

Thought I’d share my monstera aurea’s newest leaf before, during and after hardening off!!
Monstera has too many younglings and growing out of control. I am not sure if I should cut the young leaves or separate the plant and repot them? I want it to grow vertically with fenestrated leaves

Hey would you say that she needs reporting? I've had to tie her with string because she hangs over massively my cats already knocked a stem off her 😔
