I’ve got this mini monstera that seems to be getting worse and worse despite getting enough light and water. Any ideas? It looks like the picture but a lot sadder now. It used to be a full plant.

    It’s inches from a heater vent? Could that be it?

    There is a heater nearby (30cm away) but I have it marked as being near one. I can move it more to the corner so like 50cm away

    Mine is also near a heater but is doing very well, have you looked at the roots yet to see how those look

      No mold or mushiness but that was a few weeks ago - I’ll check again. The neighbor plant had fungus gnats hence the sticker but it has died since then

      Mines growth has slowed down a little since I began watering it a little less and it being colder but otherwise shes doing good. How often do you water/ how much?

      I water when the app tells me and it has an inner pot so I water then let it drip then put it back in its pot

      Mine prefers moist soil so that’s one of the few plants I don’t have super great drainage on, maybe shes just not getting quite enough water, especially if it’s near a heater it’s going to need a lot more water. I have a pair of hibiscus I brought in for the summer that I have to bottom water almost every other day to keep the plant from drying out

      Ah I’ll keep a closer eye - might also move her to a spot with a bit more sun/daylight in winter time. Really wish the app would adjust the amount of hours with location / seasons.
