I’ve had my monstera for a few years now - I placed it at the corner my room about 2 years ago now and it slowly started to grow out in one direction (towards the window for light) until it became heavily lopsided (see photo) - how can I fix it so that’s its upright, other than just turning it around and hoping it slowly grow back the other way? Any advice? Thanks!

Ive started noticing color changes on my baby deliciosa in the past few weeks. Does anyone know what this might be? Should I be concerned? The plant has grown a ton, is actively putting out new leaves, no pests, no yellowing and healthy roots. The color change is on both sides of the leaves, it just is harder to see on the top side. Only maybe half of them have the dark patches. Ive never seen this before and I have no idea what I’m doing wrong here or what this even is. Pictures are from various stops on my way out to my garage to inspect it away from my cats. Usually lives in my grow room under lights

I know mini monsteras aren’t technically monsteras, but does anyone have any tips on how to stop the leaves near the base from falling off? I’m not sure if I’m maybe doing something wrong.

Bought this humidifier at the dollar tree to help with leaf unfurling. I have two babies coming at the same time! I hope this helps.

I've had my Thai con for about 3ish (?) months now and it hasn't put of any new leaves, but has lost one. Any recommendations on how to help it out? Photo is from a few weeks ago, I've tried off the leaf slightly out of the frame as it died.

Hi everyone! My Planta app is telling me that I should be watering my Monkey Mask everyday, that doesn’t sound correct to me, any help is much appreciated! 😁

Guys I know that the droplets are normal but the soil is completely dry and I don’t even have a humidifier in the same room as it and I’m scared to water it, I heard that if the droplets are always happening it’s bad. It’s been doing this for the past week now everyday

Just repotted our largest monstera with a cedar plank and we needed to move it to another room so with that being said my question for you all is if you think this will get enough light here? It’s directly north.

Hello everyone! I got this plant a few days ago for Christmas and a day after adding it to my living room it got sick. I first thought of a watering issues because the soil was very dry when I got it. But the watering didn’t make it better, it even got worse. I thought it might be cold damage because I had to carry it outside to my home for 5min in -10 Celsius. Could anyone tell me what I can do to save it? Thank youuu

Which wattage grow light do you use for your monstera?

Just thought you all might like to meet my beefcake monstera! She’s only about 10 months old, planted a cutting from my brother-in-law last February! Her biggest leaf is 2 feet wide! She’s doing great though pretty dormant right now with the winter. I don’t want to put any stress on it but trying to figure out how to coax it to grow more upright. Its main stem is very thick and pretty much immovable at this point. Any suggestions out there for getting it to grow more upright? I don’t want to force the thick stem too much with moss poles / trellises.

My monstera isn't looking as lively as it was before and i'm not exactly sure what to do with it. It was growing huge leaves before and now it's barely growing any leaves at all. I'm thinking it needs some more light as it's pretty far from a window that doesn't give off much light. If anyone has any tips or suggestions that would be great! I just want my plant to be thriving instead of just existing 🥲

When I bought my monstera, I kept it in the same grow pot and soil it came with (17cm pot). It generally needed to be watered every 8 days. A few months ago, I repotted to a 22cm pot with new soil. Now, it seems my monstera doesn’t need watering for at least a month or longer. Even when I watered it last, the soil was slightly damp around an inch deep. Is this normal? There’s a new leaf growing (spot at the top of pic) so it can’t be doing too bad, but I feel like the aerial roots aren’t growing as fast as before 🤔

Hello! New plant mom here and I’ve been propagating this monsterra plant! The roots are only growing on one side though, should I keep together when I pot or split it up and continue propagating the side with no roots? TIA!

Need some advice on my monstera. I got her at a big box store last spring and she’s never been repotted. The nursery pot is sitting on a pedestal inside this ceramic pot. She’s thriving in this spot and I’ve been afraid to do anything, have two new leaves this week. There are at least 5 plants in this pot, and there are a ton of roots coming out the bottom. I had fed some of the aerial roots into the lower pot and those have grown as well. Where do I start? Is winter a bad time to repot in San Diego? Do I have to divide these plants? I was planning on adding supports when I repotted.
