Hello everyone, My monstera plant came from a big box store and is doing great except for when the cooler weather hit. I live in Las Vegas Nevada so it doesn’t get that cold (most of the time). But between me moving to a new house, the sun dropping in the sky, the cooler air, and trying to find places to put plants inside as the sun moves and room permits my monstera plant is drooping and curling a bit. The roots started growing through the drainage holes before I moved but it was still growing so I didn’t want to repot it during that time. I think this is the best time to repot but I want to make sure. And should I separate the plants since they are not all facing the same direction so that I can put a stake in for them to help them grow better? Thank you for any help you can give. This is the first plant that has grown a good size, except for my aloe, which is really difficult to kill. Thank you, Catrina

Hi all! I need help… bought this girl in the mail 2 weeks ago. I watered once I received her but not since and the soil is still moist, so I know she isn’t dry. I’ve noticed a few brown spots on the leaves I figured it was from being transported in a box. Now I see brown tips. She is close to a radiator because it’s my only available window, the radiator is closed and she is on a stand. Any thoughts? FYI I live in the Northeast so I’m using a grow light and mist my plants every other day.

Got this lovely Monstera Peru for Christmas

Guys I’m at the end of my tether! My gorgeous monstera gets gnats every time I water her. I am using a clay pot and specially made well draining soil and I wait ages between waterings so that she’s definitely dry. I also bottom water her so that her top layer remains dry. Yet she still gets these buggers!! Why? What am I doing wrong?? Maybe when I bottom water her, I get too keen and give her too much water?? She drank it all today though. Foliage, light and stems are fine - she is thriving other than the occasional gnat. Currently I have lots of vinegar pots around her Please can you enlighten me? Thank you!

I just wanted to share my babies new leaf, also does anyone have any pole recommendations because she needs one bad lol

Every time I water my monstera, I get white mold on top! I don’t know what to do to prevent this! I have a grow light on it but it still keeps happening. Any suggestions??

2 new leaves and 2 more soon✨

this is my monstera plant, i feel like i may be overreacting but im a little worried about the drooping leaves at the bottom, little bit of dead skin on the one leaf as well. ⭐️⭐️ next to a window with indirect sunlight during the day, little colder recently due to colder weather, watered as normal (last watered yesterday)

So there’s a long story, but short story is I was gifted this BEAUTIFUL baby yesterday!! Any tips or tricks on keeping her happy would be appreciated! What type of sun should she be getting? Watering? I’m a newbie to monsteras in general, and I was gifted 5 different ones.

Does my baby look droopy or am I overreacting? Doesn’t need water. Gets decent light. Suggestions?

Hi all! Im new ish to keeping Monstera, espically the TC. This is my first one, and I know they are prone to root rot, so I am wondering if my substrate mix is optimal. Ive mixed 3 equal parts: soil, perlite and sphagnum moss. Its been retaining moisture well but im concerned that this will lead to rot root? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks all and happy holidays!

I brought this variegated monstera but I’m unsure if it was worth it as there isn’t much variegation, should I return it, thoughts???

I bought my first Monstera recently and it’s tiny….right now! As it grows, I’ll need to put support in the pot I’m assuming? Wondering a few things…do I need to tie it onto the support? Is a plain stick okay or do I put something on it? Thanks! Very excited for this Monstera!

Do I need to “restart” my monstera? I've seen some info about maybe needing to "restart" the plant by separating and replanting the stems to make sure they're all facing the same way. This one's so dense I'm struggling to make sense of it. I'm hoping to get it to climb some type of stake (I've used moss poles in the past) but wanted the community's opinion on what's best. It seems to be in solid shape overall (from my knowledge) but does have some damaged leaves and needs to be cleaned. For reference the planter it's in is about 15 in wide and 11 in deep, and the space i'm in gets a ton of natural light from big, south facing windows. Also, any takes on repotting and pruning some of the damaged leaves? Thanks in advance!!

her first fenestrated leaf 🥹 I’m so proud
