    Without knowing anything about your routine care for this Monstera, it’s difficult to give you care instructions. So here’s a checklist from the internet.. Yellowing leaves can be caused by several factors: Overwatering: Ensure the soil dries slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. Underwatering: Check soil moisture regularly and water when the top inch is dry. Light Issues: Provide bright, indirect light, as direct sunlight can burn the leaves. Nutrient Deficiency: Fertilize during the growing season (spring/summer). Temperature Stress: Avoid extreme temperatures and drafts. Repotting Stress: Yellowing can occur after repotting, but should resolve. Natural Aging: Older leaves may naturally yellow and drop.

    That is somewhat normal. I would say possibly a brighter light or in front of a nice big window and even maybe a smaller pot I think that pot may be staying too wet for too long.

    Yes, these plants need to see the sky to thrive!

      I have a plant light, I’m not sure how that compares to the real sun? I just only have direct light in my house and it’s getting hot I’m worried about them getting burnt
