They’re slowly turning brown and wilted on the edges. I water once a week, maybe longer in between if the soil is still moist. I pictured the window it’s sitting next to. I’m not sure what to do for her and would love some advice if anyone has it! :) ![4개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/m4DB0NKzxIBVP-kvoTJg7qvgzZwgID0oWTfEyhJylh8/UYQPmuorQr2R0dZ0PEYFjA.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/m4DB0NKzxIBVP-kvoTJg7qvgzZwgID0oWTfEyhJylh8/Y7FO4ah4SYyw8vV38e7Z_A.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/m4DB0NKzxIBVP-kvoTJg7qvgzZwgID0oWTfEyhJylh8/qRXjpdoGTEuSYLt6zyjV7A.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 4번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/m4DB0NKzxIBVP-kvoTJg7qvgzZwgID0oWTfEyhJylh8/zr86s_1RTXmVsGM7GatSLA.webp?size=large) ## 12개의 댓글 ### Figleaf님이 2024-05-05에 댓글을 남겼어요. Also it was previously in a more shaded area but I saw several people saying to move it to an open window in order to have the holes develop in her leaves! Do you think it’s too much sunlight or something else? ^^ #### zhu님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. i’m totally not experienced in this kind of thing but my monstera has very similar looking damage and it was caused by being too cold! apparently they’re very temperature sensitive, a google search said they like 18-25° C (64°-77° F I believe) and below 10° C (50F) they start to show frost damage. I could definitely be wrong but I hope maybe it could help! #### Jordan님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. This could be it. It is also placed above a vent, so you have the heat or ac blowing straight on the leaves? #### Sunny님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. That’s an excess water issue and not a temperature issue. My monstera stayed outside for years with temperatures range from freezing to excessive heating (107°F). I wrapped it in wool blankets for those few days of freezing. I’m in zone9a. Those markings are too much water probably causing root rot which needs to be checked. Additionally, the light looks low unless that window gets 8 hours of bright light. Those porch chairs are blocking light. The window screen is filtering light. Plus, the plant is 1 foot away from the window. (And it’s on a vent which can cause future problems) #### Figleaf님이 2024-05-06에 답변했습니다. I never thought about it being the temperature! It’s over a vent but it isn’t actively blowing since it’s been pretty moderate temperatures here! There could be some air flow coming through anyways though that’s messing her up! I’ll try to move it and see if it helps! #### Figleaf님이 2024-05-06에 답변했습니다. I’ll definitely cut down on watering as many comments have been suggesting and see how that helps! My plant is producing new leaves that have holes in them so I assume it’s getting a good amount of light but maybe not enough? I’m going to try to bring it outside once it warms up a bit more here and see if that helps ### brianna 🤍님이 2024-05-05에 댓글을 남겼어요. i think if you’re watering once a week that’s too much! i wait until the soil on mine completely dries out and i check that by sticking a wooden skewer in the dirt and seeing if anything comes out on the stick or if it’s still damp and then i’ll wait to water unless i can tell its dried out #### fireside님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. same here. i usually water mine every two weeks or whenever it starts to droop. they’re very dramatic plants and will tell you when they need water. also yes definitely more sun needed for fenestrations to happen. does the soil have a musty smell by chance? have you checked the roots yet for root rot? is your house cool or is the plant near a drafty window? #### Figleaf님이 2024-05-06에 답변했습니다. Sounds good! I’ve been watering once a week since that’s what most of my other plants need but I’ll try cutting it down to once every 2 weeks and see if that helps her! As many of the comments are saying, that seems to be the issue! ### Lindsey님이 2024-05-05에 댓글을 남겼어요. agreed with above! also do you mist the monstera at all? i noticed mine likes some humidity #### Riley님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. I wouldn’t recommend misting monsteras or any plants as studies show it doesn’t actually change ambient humidity, and can cause fungus gnats, mold, and fungal and bacterial infections #### Lindsey님이 2024-05-05에 답변했습니다. oh my gosh i had no idea! thank you for telling me! --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
