Does anyone know if this is from under watering or too much sun? Shes currently 5-6 inches away from the window and her watering day was today so I’m unsure.

For anyone to guess you’ll have to provide more information.

Type of soil, frequency of watering, sun direction and exposure times, etc.

I’m unsure of the soil type it’s in whatever I got it in from the plant store, I water when it’s completely dry, and it was dry today so I watered but it hasn’t gotten droopy like this before. It’s in a South facing window. Apologies for the lack of details been scramble brained lately.

Your substrate may be too dense. Monstera needs a lot of aeration with a very chunky mix. Straight peat moss (usually what they’re sold in) is too heavy for the roots when not being grown in a greenhouse.

Lower leaves yellowing usually means watering too soon. All monsteras need to dry out all the way before watering.

It’s been completely dry every time I water but I’ll try letting it sit dry for a few days in the middle
