hi! this is my monstera i got from a garage sale a few months back, and i just repotted her today from a 12 inch pot to a 14 inch pot. she’s in an east facing window that gets about 2-3 hours of direct sunlight in the morning, and then bright indirect throughout the day.

one leaf has these tiny brown dots on it and the others do not, i’m wondering if these are a symptom of poor health and if so, how to fix it.

overall, she’s happy and her roots are perfectly healthy. don’t mind the sagging leaf at the bottom, she’s getting pruned soon due to new growth. the white spot isn’t a thrip, just some fiber i hadn’t wiped off. thank you!

Check the undersides of the leaves carefully for pests. If it’s not pest damage, it could be a sign of nutrient deficiency

i’ve checked for pests pretty often since i got her from outside and repotted her outside, she’s she’s pest free!! i just added some fertilizer, thank you both so much! i’ll see how she does in a few weeks

Looks a little stressed out, but healthy overall.

As the comment before stated nutrient deficiency, seems to be the issue.
