I cannot figure out why my monstera is getting these brown tips. I tried underwatering and overwatering and nothing seems to help!

It looks overwatered. You may want to let the soil dry out more between watering or change to a potting mix that drains quicker.

Kind of looks burnt to me. Do you use a lot of fertilizer?

I fertilize when Planta tells me too 😂 doesn’t seem to be too often.

Some of the leaves are completely fine and especially the new growth.

Same thing happened to mine after I repotted my big guy and it turned out my drainage holes got blocked up so the pot was holding too much moisture. I got crispy leaf tips. Sad, but an easy enough fix
