should i be alarmed with how light this monstera leaf is? she opened about a month ago so shes not old whatsoever. its gotten cold in kentucky (40-60s) and she lives outside, does that have anything to do with it? thank you so much!!!

I am not sure that has anything to do with it, it might just take a little while to mature. I would definitely bring it inside soon though with the temperature dropping like it has been. I live in West Virginia and had to bring mine in yesterday

Typically if it gets below 50 degrees for more than a few hours this can cause some cell damage to tropicals, that’s probably why she’s struggling. I think if you bring her inside she will perk back up but you might still lose the one leaf. Hope this helps, she’s beautiful! :)

Whenever my monstera pushes out a new leaf, they’re always lighter green than the others for a while until they mature. I’d say even up to 2 months depending on how much light it’s exposed to
