I always hear, pole it up sooner than you think. When it feels support at its nodes, it grows bigger leaves. So bigger leaves faster if polled sooner than later. I’ve seen people wait till it gets mangely and it looks like more hassle than it’s worth

I find without a moss pole or stake my monsteras grow in every direction. The pole will help manage it and you never get confused with way to face the sun.
