I got this Monstera cheese, when I got it was already under care, but now this keeps happening!  
Can you help us? I really like her and she is the one and only in my collection.

The pot may be too big and keeping too much water on the roots. I recommend using a pot just wide enough to hold the root ball. The roots should be able to use up all the moisture in the soil or it can lead to root rot.

Also, ensure it has sufficient light.

Thank you, I’m on it right now. 🌹

At this point, you might be better off propping it. Is it supposed to be variegated or is that leaf damaged?

#### Yoa ha risposto il 2025-01-14

Damaged I believe

That looks like thrip damage on the leaf. As someone said above that pot is too big. I would snip off that dead stem remove the remaining leaf and roots and just prop it in water

Cut everything! 😅
