What can be wrong with our Monstera?
(lemmy.world)
Watering - winter once a week. Summer every two/three days. There is a drainage.
Light - approximately one meter to side from a balcony window with a curtain. Window located to east-south.
East Slovakia - inside from 20-26 degrees.
Life - we have it around half year. 2 leafs grown since the purchase.
Pests - not visible.
How much water are you giving it with each watering? It looks like overwatering, but it can be saved if you let the soil dry out and reduce how often you water it.
If you have bamboo or wooden skewers, stick one all the way to the bottom (gently, and closer to the side of the pot where you won't snag the roots). Pull it out after 5 minutes. The skewer shouldn't be bone dry at the end, but it shouldn't be too wet... It's hard to explain but you'll eventually get a feel for what seems right.
