I’ve had this Swiss cheese monstera for about 2 months now, its name is Swiss.. Anyways LMFAO, my housemate repotted her and said the soil was rly dry and hot. She seems like she’s been stable since, but I randomly lost 3 leaves over the past 2 weeks due to this issue. She was sprouting 3 new leaves, and now only has 1 that’s still unraveling. Not sure if it was just dry, or if it’s something else. Any tips on helping a monstera flourish?

    They love to climb on a moss pole or trellis. Cut all the yellowing leaves off. It could be stressed from the repot. Try to water before they droop. But also make sure the soil is dry. Get the magnifying glass and look in the crevices and in-between the vines for pests... it probably just got overwatered or underwatered.

      Thank you so much! Should I put some sort of stick inside that they can latch onto to? How do I do that safely (to avoid disturbing roots?)

    When was it repotted? It could be transplant shock, but ive not gotten a lot of that personally with these. It could also be the soil and pot size are keeping Swiss to wet. Thats usually what the issue is when it see blacking tips like that on this species.
