Here’s a little care list! I love Thai cons and somehow keep ending up with more and more every month :)  
Monstera Thai constellation  
Light - bright indirect  
Watering - twice a week if soil is mostly dry (very sensitive to overwatering)  
Soil - chunky soil mix  
Fertilizer- wait about a month or so before fertilizing but when you do use a light fertilizer for houseplants  
Humidity- needs to be 60-70% (highly recommend humidifier)  
Propagation - always propagate in areas with nodes , let dry out overnight and then place in water roots should start growing in a week or less.  
Leaf damage - brown spots are the most common check your plant’s roots for rot, if none seen it could be old damage ( a more common color for old damage is a dry brown color that isn’t soft to the touch) variegated parts will spread the brown color across the area and naturally fall off.
