Please help! I ordered this monstera deliciosa off TikTok and got her 4/22. It came in very wet soil and the roots were existent but not very developed. She’s about 18” tall. I put her in a pot with a mix of soil that consists of orchid bark, perlite, and tropical plant mix soil because I know drainage is important. She had two good drinks about a week apart where I bottom watered. I think she got either too much sun or over watered. I moved her out of direct light and her soil is dry up until the bottom two inches. What can I do?

I am new to Monsteras and have a large Thai constellation. Could it be exhibiting rotting and discolored leaves from being root bound?? I don’t see any rotten roots and it doesn’t have pests. I thought it might be overwatered, but it actually doesn’t seem too bad when I pulled it out of the pot. It does have a beautiful new leaf too! Please help!

Annabelle has grown up to the top of her moss pole! Base to top stem she’s almost exactly 16”. I replaced her moss today as the moss I had originally retained zero moisture and had no substrate to cling to.

Hi! I’ve had this plant for about 3 months and one of the leaves recently started having brown flaky spots. Any ideas what’s causing this? It is in a west facing window so it gets some direct sunlight for a few hours in the afternoon but most of the day it’s shaded. Thinking it might be too sunny though.. No idea

Help! I’m freaking out and I am so excited! My husband got me some Monstera Albo cuttings from Ebay. They just arrived today, all the way from SirLanka (I’m in the US) They look ok, they were in a plastic bag with some coconut coir, and plenty of moisture. They have some roots. What do I do now to avoid shock, etc. I REALLY want them to grow and thrive 😣

Hello monstera lovers! I have a question. Just wondering about a few things being a new monstera momma. So I recently repotted Coco because I suspected root rot and pest infestation. Which I was right about. So I cleared it up. Repotted her, but I think I repotted her into a pot too big. I didn’t know at first, that monsteras like rather smaller pots. Im not sure if this pot is too big. Doesn’t seem like it at times but Ive realized the soil is still damp down under. I even pulled two of these stems off last week which has halted my watering. Last time I watered was on the 22nd, I do mist her everyday. I’m trying not to overwater or kill this plant like I almost did. Any advice? Will she be fine? Should I repot her again into a smaller pot? Will me messing with her again shock or damage her? Thank you in advance and hope y’all have a wonderful day! 💚🪴

Did a big upgrade for my og monstera 🤩 full repot, I didn’t like the previous mix of soil so I fully removed that but mainly due to this pot having 3 stems (2 climbing & 1 crawler) so I had to better position them so I could get them all facing the same way 🙃 My soil mix is super loaded & doing a real moss pole this time, additionally went down a pot size so it could get more snug so I’m hoping this + all the good light it gets will make her grow huge this summer! 🤞🏽

Anyone has some ideas? I’ve had this Thai Con For about 3 months. I water weekly, it’s about 3 feet away from a large window, I haven’t fertilized as yet. It was initially fine then one leaf started turning brown from the tips. I snipped it but the browning continued. Now two other leaves are affected despite a new leaf coming out? I admit it’s been a bit colder in my home about 69 on average. And I recently added a humidifier. Any tips or advice? Please?

Hi all after having many plants I decided to branch into a mini monstera! I have never cared for one before but I’m excited. It was labeled as mini monstera/split leaf. Any advice is helpful(I live in CO) 🪴✨

I purchased my first monstera yesterday! Labeled as a Thai Constellation. I went to the grocery store (Kroger) for coffee creamer and noticed this little one sitting alone so I grabbed it! I’ve typically grown succulents so this will be a little learning adventure for me. 😊

Got my monkey mask in mid-March and it’s already got 3 new leaves coming! It’s also lost a random leaf and has been repotted… this makes me so happy as heard these can be a plant to keep happy 🤣

I just found out today that there are two common types of Monstera - Monstera Deliciosa and Monstera Borsigiana I think I might have the Borsigiana (??) Completely Shocked

Is this an Adansonii? I rescued this little thing from my local supermarket where they are steadily killing all the plants for sale (not the staff’s fault - they’re being saddled with an increasingly exotic range of plants in an area that has little interest). I took the two with the least root rot and have trimmed and applied a hydrogen peroxide wash (which has worked wonders on my other hydroponic). BUT. What is it? Planta keeps insisting it’s a Pothos - I think it’s a baby Montsera Adansonii. If I’m right, I’m tempted to actually pot it as I think it would be happier. Any thoughts?! Thank you 💚
