How do I get my monstera to stand up more? I would love to move her in closer to the window but she's already got leaves smushed up over there. I have a grow light over head. It's a good southern window and she seems happy I just want to know if she could be more vertical. The one next to is even more horizontal with the leaves.
I just read something about this! You can get a plant steak on Amazon and just ordered one for $10 and as you wrap around the plant steak, it will grow better vertical!

I agree a plant stake will work
0 likes She already has a nice moss pole or is staking something else?
0 likes Stakes or wood planks generally stand up better then a moss pole would but you could try making sure the moss pole and plant is sticking straight up

A fence picket works well too

I've seen some cool monstera stem supports on etsy. Custom colors & sizes. Worth a look!

I recommend a grow light straight above it. It looks like it’s moving towards your window, I’m sure it’s because it’s the only light source from that direction.

1 like It has a moss support and a grow light directly above it. She's getting better I think, had some backwards leaves that are turning around.
