Okay, so vulnerable post here. I rescued two Monstera Thai’s from Walmart a few months ago. They were rotted all to do, smelt SO bad, water logged,m and everything. I took them home, cleaned them up and repotted them. They weren’t dying or anything, just NOT growing, and so I thought I’d put them in some SHADE for a few hours outside. I came back and they were burnt! 😭😭 I tired to leave them alone for a few weeks and not water and just let them exist but the leaves started to brown and yellow even more. Here is them before when I first potted, I didn’t leave them in this sun and that outside photo was months ago and this is what they looked like before I repotted and what I’ve done today. Hopefully they will make a 3rd come back and survive because they are so beautiful! 😭😭

Hi! I have this crazy big monstera and it’s all facing one direction. I just moved it in front of the windows with the “back” facing the window. Will this work to help make the plant more even or should I give up on ever having leaves facing the other way?

Heya everyone!🧡 Wanted to reach out for a bit of advice here regarding this little monstera of mine. There aren't any pests that I can notice, nor any root rot when I repotted it recently into a larger container. It was quite root bound before.. which is what I thought was causing the yellow spots, but they seem to be getting worse still, even after about a week in a bigger pot. The spots are also gutting every day, so there are water droplets accumulating around the leaf border. Could it be poor airflow? Im lost in the sauce. Any help at all is very appreciated!!🧡 Thanks a million:]

I’m just looking to see if you guys think my plant is healthy looking? It’s grown about a foot taller from when I got her about 4 months ago. I haven’t had any dying leaves just some damaged from the kittens we had but I trimmed them off. Let me know what you think, ask any questions and i listen to all advice. I can post more pictures of her too.

Betsy’s newest leaf has officially unfurled!! It looks bigger than the other three leaves she has. I think I’m going to repot her in soil now that it’s unfurled.

I was in Mexico for 4 days, and expected Herman’s new leaf to be open by the time I got home! It looks like this now! What did I do wrong? The oldest (smallest) leaf is very yellow down there too…help please!

Help plz A while ago, the variegated parts of my thaicon started to brown, and I thought it was because it was root bound (which it kind of was?). I repotted it and thought it would get better, but it kept on browning at the same rate. I water it around once every two weeks. The roots were perfectly fine last time I checked (during repot). Brown areas seem to be slightly transparent and seem like wet or something inside?? Whenever I wake up in the next few mornings after watering, water seems to drip out of these areas a lot (enough that puddles form on the ground). What do I do???

Hi all 💕 Really needing some guidance regarding my Thai Cons. I have had 2 of them before that I either got at Home Depot or Kroger or something..and the new growth just started to turn black and die off. These are my 2 new ones my fiance got for me recently… and they are doing the same exact thing, and my bigger one has a couple leaves that are developing black spots. What am I doing wrong?? They are located in 2 separate locations in my house, I do not think it’s related to pests or anything like that. I did notice that the cache pots they were in were airtight to the pots they sit in, so maybe lack of airflow to the pot is effecting the roots > root rot ? (Also the “crinkly”/ wavy leaves?) I haven’t taken them out to inspect the roots yet, wanted to get opinions first. *bigger one is pictured here and pics of smaller one in comments* Please help I don’t want to lose these guys 😭.

My plant has been getting some new growth recently, but then will die off at the top and turn brown, and then the bottom leaves are turning yellow. What should I do about it? I water it frequently. I have a plant light for it and I have given it some plant fertilizer

Hii I was wondering if anyone could help me confirm that this is 3 in one before I go messing with it. I don’t want to send it into sock or anything. Thanks so much!

hi fellow monstera lovers :) I have a question about my adansonii. I noticed that the newest leaf is smaller than the others. It’s pushed out consistently the same-ish size leaves since I got in April & it’s never been re-potted. Is this a sign that it needs to be repotted? It seems to be more roots than soil atp (I just watered today so it’s not super easy to see in the pics), tho the roots aren’t coming out of the bottom that much. I read somewhere that they like a snug fit but the new leaf is pretty small so idk if that means it’s time to size up? OR I’m just being a helicopter parent :) I appreciate any insight!!!💚
