# Just picked up this monstera today from my local Home Depot. Not sure…

Just picked up this monstera today from my local Home Depot. Not sure why he has all these brown tears and marks in the leaves, and I was wondering if there was anything I needed to do. Is this just because he wasent getting adequate care or was I super unlucky and picked a dying plant? I did notice he had some new growth so I’m assuming he’s still healthy. I just ordered a moss pole for some extra support and a grow light so hopefully that should help him out a bit. Any suggestions welcome! I need all the help I can get!

It looks mishandled causing damages to the leaves. New leaves are delicate and easy to damage. Also, moving to a new environment can cause additional stress until the plant gets used to its new home. Wait two to three weeks before repotting.

Inconsistent watering can cause drooping. I recommend giving the plant time to adjust. A pole won’t hurt. Ensure the soil dries before watering. Again, wait to repot. Fertilize every 2 weeks with 50%?diluted liquid fertilizer if there are no fertilizer beads in the soil. 🍀🪴
