Did you check for pests? Magnify lens would help see the little critters. Look underneath the foliage. By silica. It helps with brooding spots

#### Woodard antwoordde op 2025-01-19

I have looked but can’t find anything!

Wipe the leaves and stems and buy silica. It’s a huge help for variegated plants

#### Woodard antwoordde op 2025-01-19

Thank you!

Is it in a chunky mix? Do you let it fully dry?

It is not in a chunky mix. But I do let the soil dry on the top before watering again.

If it’s potted from nursery soil still, that type of soil takes a while to dry. Get a water meter and check moisture way down the soil. I believe it’s a water issue then. Easy to fix

Is this chunky soil better for monsteras? I have a regular monstera that is droopy!

### ?!:) reageerde op 2025-01-19

Or a wood stick, like sushi sticks and insert way down to the soil, wait a few minutes and pull it out and see if it’s wet

#### Woodard antwoordde op 2025-01-19

It is wet!

### ?!:) reageerde op 2025-01-19

They like chunky soil. Corse bark, perlite, a bit of good quality soil, and monsteras are big feeders so plant food like Osmocote (something like that)

#### Woodard antwoordde op 2025-01-19

I will look into some chunky soil better

### ?!:) reageerde op 2025-01-19

I have 5 monsteras 😂😝

Thais cannot be treated the same as their green cousins. As I mentioned in the previous post about thai constellation, a good article is at lovethatleaf.com entitled Thai constellation the ultimate care guide and how not to kill them.
