the left is now vs when i got my monstera. i think the leaves are droopy but that may just be me being worried. does anything look off? I added nutrients to the water because it was happening but it hasn't done much. not sure what is going on
should I be misting my plants leaves? if so how often?

Honestly misting isnât that good for plants if you really want to raise the humidity add a humidifier. They work wonders

I donât think you need to mist her maybe make sure her water is changed more often clean the glass itâs in with dish soap it will not hurt your plant just get it clean and you can even clean the roots with hydrogen peroxide if they have any stuff growing on the roots good luck sheâs so beautiful đ
2 gillningar Thank you! The water is a little bit dirty but I changed it about a few days ago so maybe I just need to more often while she's getting adjusted! Do you think she's getting enough nutrients?
1 gilla I believe that it is by the water, shocking it too much with nutrients or fertilizers every water could be harmful and cause it to die, once a month you could add fertilizer or nutrients in the water and it should get a boost from it but itâs doing itâs thang youâre doing great! Iâd just wash the glass every time you change the water and fill that cup up they will literally just take the water they need! Thatâs why I love water props and water plants đ

The plant leaves will turn and face the sun, the cuts in the leaves are for sun to get through and since itâs not fully slit yet it could just be making more room for herself to grow up after growing out

Maybe it need a bit more light and better water conditions. When a whole plant wilts itâs typically water/ humidity related.

0 gillningar I would do a bit of experimentation and research. One of my things I do for my plants is I have a running spreadsheet in my notes, where I jot down basic information. Which helps a ton with plants it can help you find out which need a bit more of a watchful eye and which ones can handle a bit of abuse and neglect. Youâd be surprised how much a plant can handle. Another thing is itâs really cool to see what plants have in common Iâve found some tropical plants that can basically exist without needing a greenhouseâs and they can live with my temperate plants as well. Youâd be amazed how plants can exist with each other.

I also use some water from a fish tank (plants love natural fertilizer) and that seems to do her some good as well she rewards me with water droplets almost on the daily and have even seen two new leaves from her.
