Help. Why is it doing thisđ In an east window. Recently sprayed neem oil where I left it in dark for over 15 hours. Fertilizer in the soil and I just took it out of its self water pot because she was too wet.

Why are the leaves so droopy? Did i put it too straight when I tied it to the pole? Iâm very new at plants. I bought this one on Facebook marketplace. Repotted twice because I realized the first pot was way too big đ€Šđ»ââïž Sheâs now in a clear 6in nursery pot so I can see better when the soil is dry. I water and mist per plantaâs advice. Soil is potting soil + perlite + coco coir. The soil was dry for at least 2in when i last added water + fertilizer a week ago. Sheâs in a room with a large south facing window, but sheâs about 8ft from the window. Iâm winging it and learning as I go! So - any thoughts on why itâs so droopy and what I should do? Thank you! đ

Okay, I know new growth comes from the last grown leaf. So on my monstera what should I be looking for to see if a new growth is starting?

Can you tell if this is one or more plants? How can I stop her leaning over. Iâm going to repot MontsĂš soon. Iâve got a pot thatâs 4cm bigger, a nice airy potting mix that Iâm cobbling together myself, a couple of bendy coir poles and Iâm waiting on some 3D printed moss poles and moss to come. Itâll be the very first time Iâve attempted a repot a Monstera and a plant this big. I got her in this pot from an online store (approx September last year) and she has always tried to lean towards one side. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated đđŒ PS I can get better pictures if you need them.

My husband and I went on a day trip to a nursery about 1 hour from our place; just to get out of the house. I had no intention of buying any plantsâŠI know, famous last words. But! I found this thia constellation for $89! I have placed her in my kitchen with my green monstera. Iâm absolutely delighted every time I go into the kitchen!

Questions! New to this, so pardon my terminology. I was gifted this monstera. 1. The only leaves so far have been towards the bottom. Theyâve been smaller and solid. This new leaf shows fenestration. What determines how a leaf grows? 2 and 3. It looks like new stalks/stems growing from spots that have been cut in the past. I donât see leafy parts growing here. Is this normal? 4. Is it normal to see these little âbudsâ at the bottom of the main stem area? 5. What causes yellow leaves? Am I over-watering? Should I leave this to recover? If I need to cut, how do I know where to cut? 6. The main stems grow sideways vs upwards. Should I add a pole to gently pull them upward? Thanks for sticking with me and helping as I learn!!

Help. Is this water issue.? I removed from water pot. But I want to stop this quickly. She is gorgeous đ I also have new growths coming in as pictured Was sprayed with neem oil a few days ago and itâs in bright indirect light rn. Iâm also thinking sheâs needs a bigger pot. Advice please. Current pot is 6in

My little albo variegata monstera is seemingly happy but hasnât really grown much or produced any new leaves. Would that be because of winter/cold in my area (or does it matter because itâs inside)? Iâve been following Plantaâs care schedule. Wanting to help it thrive. Ty lovelies! đ±

My monstera is really happy - putting out 3 new leaves in the past week. No signs of any unhappiness. But I have noticed very small mushrooms growing out of the base of my moss pole. There have been 2 mushrooms in the past 2 months that I have scooped out by hand. Any suggestions?

My second and last attempt to have a monstera I repotted her into a mix of pearlite, tropical soil, and orchid bark! I also put her on a trellis Wish me luck !

Does she need help? I got this Monstera Adansonii about a month ago and sheâs already put out these 2 leaves, but they havenât completely unfurled? The lower one has been out for at least a week and a half now. I also noticed this bottom leaf is still a little curled under. She was sitting in some soil that I think held moisture for too long; I noticed some white fuzz on the surface, so I repotted 3 days ago into a mix of soil, perlite, and orchid bark. I havenât watered again since repotting to give it a chance to not be so wet. None of the roots looked black though, aside from one small higher up one that looked like maybe an aerial root forming? So, is the curling alarming?

Hello!! Anyone have any suggestions on types of supports/stakes/poles for my Thai Constellation? Shes starting to lean and I donât want her to have any issues. Idk if they will grow onto moss poles like some monsteras will so I wanted to ask before I bought one, or if I should just get a different stake type!
brianna đ€
absolutely thriving đ€© adding another moss pole to her tomorrow

I timed planting this monstera by seed where it actually sprouted within 2 days of my son being born! Itâs been putting out leaves on his month marker so thereâs always a new leaf for each new month of his life. Iâve been watching the 5th leaf coming out and today, 4days after his 5month mark, I see this. I had thought this whole time it was solid but not any more! 5months for fenestrations! I donât know if thatâs fast or not but I feel accomplished! Canât wait to see this thing in its full glory in a week or two from now! Edit: while using ChatGPT to ask what the average time it takes for these to form I found out theyâre called incisions, fenestrations are only the holes in the center of the leaf.
