Hi all 👋

I’m new to the app and plants in general so any help would be great.

But just wondering if anyone knows what’s going on with my monstera monkey mask. I’ve got it under grow lights and on a moss pole but the leaves are starting to yellow a bit in patches and even brown a little bit, yet it just put out 3 new shoots/leaves recently. Also the white spots on the leaves r bits of moss. Ive checked there’s no bugs/pests, I’ve even changed all the soil.

The images are attaches so if anyone has any clue what’s happening pls help!!🙏

I’d say about every 9-10 days ish based off of what the app recommends
