Hiii, I bought a Monstera Thai Constellation from GrowTropicals and every leaf had some spots like this - I repotted it, is there anything else I can do to increase its chance of survival?

Baby it since it you just transplanted it. Were the spots there before you bought it?
0개 좋아요Yeah when it arrived it already had the spots, there was also another leaf that was quite wilted like it was overwatered
좋아요 1개Oh man! That’s tough. Overwatering usually means you need more sun to evaporate it, but more sun might overwhelm it after the transplant. I’d just make sure there is a fan going and you don’t have hard water.

좋아요 1개It could be shipping stress or it got too much water before being shipped that couldn’t dry out fast enough in transport. I would check the roots for signs of rot. Remove the rot, disinfect with peroxide, and replace the soil if rot is found.🪴🍀
0개 좋아요That's fusarium fungus. Treat with a fungicide (hydrogen peroxide is a gentle one. Neem oil is more hardcore but can make the plant vulnerable to sunburns)
