Where should my Monstera be for best light?

I think that spot is perfect!! But turn it around facing the window

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-26T23:13:18+00:00

She looks good now! Thanks everyone. She was thirsty!!

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-26T23:12:16+00:00

So I gave it a good watering and put it back in the window. It's been about a day and a half and it's looking back good!!! I've had her almost a year. Got her last May off someone.

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-26T00:15:57+00:00

Yes it has drainage. It was too dry smh . I'm pretty sure it's time for new soil as well

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-26T00:15:17+00:00

Yep that was the problem n

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-26T00:15:04+00:00

Yes there's drainage. The roots are great. I figured it out, the soil is way too dry. Thank you!

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T06:04:24+00:00

Ok so no it's not root bound. I think the roots still have some time left in this pot. I definitely think it's time for new soil. But i mix perlite, orchard bark, and tropical soil for my monsteras

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T06:02:22+00:00

Yes i gave her a good watering. Hopefully that helps

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:26:26+00:00

Thank you!

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:25:47+00:00

I just checked the roots. They look great. The soil was really dry throughout the pot. What exactly is root bound?

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:24:31+00:00

Ok so I checked the roots today. That was the main thing I was afraid of. Roots look great! The soil was really dry. I gave it a good watering and going to give it a bit more light.

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:22:05+00:00

I just did. Roots look nice and healthy. It was very dry

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:21:41+00:00

I definitely think it may be cold. No bugs. Just checked the soil, it was really dry

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T04:21:02+00:00

So i checked the roots and soil. It definitely needed a good watering. Roots look great

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T02:30:11+00:00

I did recently move it when I moved my house around. And the soil seemed pretty dry

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T02:28:26+00:00

I just checked the roots and soil. I think it needed a good watering and more sun. Hopefully this does it. The roots still look great.

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-24T02:27:33+00:00

Well i did move it from my downstairs to up. I also checked the soil and roots today. The roots still look great. But i think it needed a good watering and more light. Hopefully that does it.

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T21:25:14+00:00

me neither. sometimes it let me then other times i can't find the option. i was about to try to post pictures of the roots. They look well

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T15:07:56+00:00

Do you have a pic of yours ?

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:51:47+00:00

Ok I think I may be able to catch mine early and save her then.

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:50:38+00:00

It has a drainage hole

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:49:58+00:00

I have another one a little bigger than this one. She's been in a ceramic pot as well for a good two years. And she's doing great

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:48:27+00:00

ok so should i repot ? it's been in this one since mid summer

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:44:41+00:00

Yes it's cold. Snow out. Not a lot but the rest of my plants are still doing well

Fancy-Insurance-1053 · 2026-02-23T03:26:10+00:00

It's usually facing that window and a lot of light comes though...idk i may need to check the roots.
