looks to me like the plant may just be a little bit thirsty? the fragile new shoot isn’t as hardy as the rest of the plant, so it’s burning a little. do you notice anything else on the rest of the plant?

#### Kay ha respondido el 2024-06-05

Rest of the plant seems ok! Maybe it is. There’s another leaf growing and I don’t see it on there? So weird!

This is happening to me too!! Also not sure why.

#### Kay ha respondido el 2024-06-05

So frustrating!!

### Bri a commenté le 2024-06-05

Ok so this happened to me recently also ! Are you misting ?

#### Kay ha respondido el 2024-06-05

I’m not. Should I?

#### Bri ha respondido el 2024-06-05

Some say you can but I was just wondering because I only noticed this problem after I started misting.

#### Bri ha respondido el 2024-06-05

Only other thing I can say is the same as everyone else maybe check the soil !

This happened to my mini monstera and it was caused by overwatering for me - might not be the case for you but I’d just double check your soil is completely dry in between watering!

#### Kay ha respondido el 2024-06-05

Maybe it is! I repotted recently where the soil wasn’t draining well
