I've given my monstera a moss pole and it's rubbed and ripped a healthy stem and new leaf😅 do I leave it and see if it mends naturally? Or is there something to do in the meantime? I've taken the top moss pole off so it's not causing anymore friction

Uhhhhhhh WHAT IS IN MY MONSTERA?? Are those EGGS??

To do the big chop, or not to do the big chop? I’ve had my monstera about 2 years now and it was maybe 12” when I got it. Since I’ve given it a trellis and a bigger pot, it has put out large leaves like crazy! It even outgrew the grow light. It’ll be very hot to warm here for at least 8 more weeks so I can put it outside if I want. The question is, do I do “the big chop” now or wait till next year’s growing season? This is my first monstera, so of course the idea of The Chop is kinda terrifying! 🫣 Please ignore the mess in the photo. My house is undergoing a renovation so everything is out of sorts.

I got my monstera a little while ago from a friend and kept it in water for a few weeks but noticed a leaf starting to turn yellow and was told to put it in soil but it still isn’t thriving. I watered it recently and it is sitting on my dining room table a few feet from the window. When I repotted it I noticed it had a small amount of black on the tips of its roots. I know they can go in shock but I’m just wondering what else it could be?

Hello! Is it possible to have too much humidity? I have my monsteras under a little plastic “greenhouse” cover but it is quite humid outside (81% give or take). It’s been dryer lately so I put them in here but if it could get too humid I can pull them out and let them be outside. I have a hygrometer on the way so I’ll have an accurate reading of the humidity in the greenhouse soon.

This is Gaia, my 7 foot monstera!! She was a Facebook find if you can believe it. I need tips for a monstera this monstrous! I put her on a new moss pole but watering her is so difficult as I can’t move the pot. She’s also starting to have dry brown tips on a few leaves :( I can’t image she’d want less light (she gets bright indirect sunlight all day with a few of those leaves in the window getting direct eastern light in the morning) so more humidity? I’m scared to overwater her. :(

This girl had a rough time at first, but now she’s doing great! I was wondering if she’d be best on a plank or just leave her to trail??? Sent a couple views of her. If I plank her, what do I do with all the “bushy parts”? I’ve never planked anything before. I know I won’t do a true moss pole. Thanks for any advice or direction.

Trying to decide what to do with this big ol’ lady. She has a new leaf at the top and is growing babies at the bottom, but recently four large mature leaves turned yellow and died 😕 the pot she came in has no drainage so I’d really like to re-pot her (same size? What medium?) but also have no idea if I should strategically chop & prop some of the longer stems so the whole plant is more full and uniform. WWYD?

Got this monstera on Facebook for free. The condition was the first photo. I made a pot for it out of a 5 gallon waste basket, fixed her up(as seen in last photo). I know she’s going to be sad because of all the changes made (home,soil, pot, sunlight maybe), do you think she’ll thrive? Did i do the right thing with her? What’s a good name?

This monstera was doing really well, I grew it from a cutting I was given. I came home to find this leaf was slightly wilted with brown marks. What could this be? My leading theory is that it got burned touching the window during the current heatwave but I wanted some second opinions.

I got this plant about three years ago and it just had three leaves on it. I didn’t know that these were climbing plants and it has grown all over the place. Any suggestions on what to do with it at this point?

HELP!!! I’ve just got rid of thrips on my monstera after a recent infestation- I’ve assumed these black spots are from the infestation but want to check before finally clearing him to mingle with the rest of my plants! 🌱 Any ideas as to what else this could be from? And whether these black spots are here to stay now??

Can anyone explain this variegation on my monstera leaf?

Just staked up my bush of a Monstera on to some moss poles for the first time. I recently inherited a Thai constellation and got it set up on a moss pole, and it perked up so fast that I knew I needed to get my big monstera on them. I’ve had her for about 4 years. She was just a tiny thing when I got her from a nursery. I make my little fairy garden in her pot base since it’s so big. Over 5ft tall 22 inch pot

Omg !!!!! My Thai con is producing a new leaf for the first time in a month ! I am really happy as it looks like it has good variegation and splits in the leaf ! I’m really happy !

I went away on vacation a week ago and my poor monstera got overwatered while in the care of a family member :( Only this leaf and a baby one that turned yellow seem to have been affected. The brown one is standing tall and there seems to be a new leaf growing on its stem but the bottom of it is browning already. I have brought it out on my 4 season patio to hopefully dry out the soil enough to help it get back to normal. It seems to be working so far, I have about half an inch of soil dried out along the sides of the pot already. I was wondering if I should I be cutting this leaf off? Or do I wait some more to see if it’ll come back? This is my first time owning a monstera so I am so so grateful to receive any help for you guys! Thanks in advance!!
