Peachy

hey all! I recently moved (home-wise) and repotted this Monstera facing a north east window. Ever since i’ve moved it’s been doing poorly :( some as shown are pretty yellow while others are just the tips, but the yellow then turns to dried dead brown. thankfully there are a few that haven’t been touched yet. I haven’t seen any pests on the leaves/stems, but I believe there are springtails in the soil (tiny white bugs). I water about once a week following Planta’s schedule and fertilize as well. i’ve never had this happen with any of my plant, please help!

    Monsteras need a ton of light! A north ease window is not going to be enough. You’d need a south window or add a grow light

    Usually a light or a watering issue if it’s getting less light that could lead to over watering because it’s not getting enough light to use the water. if you haven’t repotted in a long time it’s possible it could need a repot if it’s super rootbound but in my experience that kind of stuff is usually because of overwatering. Also, sometimes the oldest leaves will yellow and die just because of age, but since you recently moved, my guess is, it’s getting inadequate light, resulting in it getting overwatered if you don’t have the windows, I’d look into gro lights/bulbs. Check the soil and Only water when it’s half to 3/4 dry. planta’s schedule usually overestimates how frequently you need to water your plants. Good luck!
