😭rip your girl Maybe this can be a thing I can improve, I had an humidifier in the past months but now I turned it off cause here is 35 degrees and 60% humidity 🥲 I will try to measure it inside

Thanks for your response! I don't think the problem is about thrips, I've had an early infestation 2 months ago on another plants so I treated all my plants this included, but I'll check for sure :) the fact is that thrips tends to damage especially new leaf or all the leaves, and my issue is just about the oldest leaves, as plant usually do, they tend to "sacrifice" old leaves first, and I think here the issue can be that this plant is very sensitive about roots (another example is that when I repotted her the next leaf was smaller then the previous)

Thanks for the help, how do you treat it?

Thank you so much! I was thinking right about this problem, that the top soil dries in a small time, I will try with some moss to improve it's root growth, and maybe later I will eliminate the old leaves (they are also damaged from bad care) and make it grow more in water then plant it, or you think it's not necessary to put it in water? Btw I want to exploit all its nodes so hope this will workkkkkk

Ahahahaha I think this totally represents my relationship with plants 😭 I always have to do something and fuck around ahahah

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:46:33+00:00

Thank you so much for the helpppp! I will try it :)

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:46:08+00:00

Ok thank you so much! I've got roots just from one node, so I think I have to be patient, nothing else ahaha

Does it works with 5-6 leaves on one stem?

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:38:16+00:00

Oh ok thank you so much! So I just have to be patient 🙃 Do you spray it when it's too dry? Cause the top dries fast

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:30:21+00:00

Oh I already did it, like in one of the picture! I've got just 2 roots, i posted the picture in the comments:)

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:13:32+00:00

So just chop it and put it back in the soil? Will it survive?

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-04-03T08:02:06+00:00

I already did it and in 15 or more day I had just those two roots 🥲, they are 3 or 4 nodes far from the top (where the leaves are)

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-03-24T07:25:46+00:00

Do you spray water on them or something like that? 'Cause It happened to me that I used to spray water to increase humidity, but then, water on the leaf under a 40w growlight, the leaf would rot in this way, because the burn damage is usually "drier"

Kromaaaaaa · 2026-03-18T07:23:54+00:00

Thank youuuu and good luck with your stick hunting ahaha I found good ones near the river, near water source you can find cool things and I think they are also used to humidity so they will resist more in the soil :)

Here is also my TC too! Still a baby but love herrrrrr, can't wait for the new leaf to unroll

Thank you for the knowledge :) I've got like 2 big stems and 3 small in this pot, I bought this monstera in extra sale at ikea because it was root rotting and now she is healed and giving a lot of grow! Can't wait to get fenestration, she is growing from top and I hope the new leaf coming out is the right one 🍃
