If the Monstera at home is not growing well and its leaves are drooping, think about whether the soil you prepared for the Monstera is alkaline or acidic. If it is acidic, change the soil for the Monstera as soon as possible. If you delay it any longer, the Monstera may die! It is well known that Monstera is shade-tolerant. When growing it at home, it is best not to expose the leaves of Monstera to direct sunlight. If the sunlight is too strong, the leaves of Monstera will easily be burned, which is not conducive to the growth of the plant. When watering, you must ensure that the soil of Monstera is dry rather than wet. The soil of Monstera can be kept moist. Because Monstera lives in a cool place all year round, you must not water it too much. If you water too much and the water cannot evaporate in time, the roots will rot! |
