# I am not sure what is wrong with my plants a few of them are growing…

_Posted by Gabscc12 on 2025-06-25_

I am not sure what is wrong with my plants a few of them are growing leaves but they are coming in stunted? Or stop growing halfway and then the ends are charred off not sure how to describe it. So I attached photos if anyone can help please! It’s happened to my white knight, pink princess and monstera.

Can you gently take the plant out of the pot and check on the roots? Was once told stunted leaves can indicate it’s ready for a bigger pot

The monstera roots and coming out the bottom haha but the other ones don’t seem to be crowded I have them all in clear pots

The monstera still doesn’t look too crowded in the pot, they tend to like being root bound and it looks like there’s still plenty of room.
