I need help. I recently moved to a new apartment and I repotted my monstera to a bigger pot changed the soil put her through the shower (watered) and it started going downhill from there. I chatted and they said to leave it alone and I have and recently (few days ago) added water since the leaves keep drooping. Diagnosed again told to leave her alone but I see some yellowing. Can she be saved? Should I change the soil again? Idk what to do she was thriving until all the movement. Help.

    Don’t water because of droopy leaves. Water because the soil is actually dry. Plants will get droopy if soil is too wet for too long, because the roots start to rot, and can no longer absorb the water they need. You have it against a wall now - I’m wondering if it’s getting less light in this new location, so using less water?

    It might be in transplant shock. Is your new soil chunky enough to not suffocate the roots when the soil is wet? If it isn’t chunky enough, you might transplant it if you think it’s staying wet too long. You can also use something like a chopstick to poke holes in the soil, so that air gets to the roots..

    She still looks very saveable! 🌿 I think she may be going through transplant/environment shock since she was moved, repotted, had her soil changed, and watered all around the same time. I wouldn’t repot her again right now unless the soil is staying soggy or you suspect root rot. I’d give her bright indirect light, make sure the pot has good drainage, and only water when the top few inches of soil have dried. Try not to water just because the leaves are drooping, because drooping can also happen from stressed or damaged roots. Give her some time to adjust. ❤️🌱
