What's wrong with the yellow leaves of Monstera? Does the black stem mean the roots are rotten?

1. Causes and solutions for yellow leaves

1. Its roots are fleshy, and it is impossible to maintain them well without soil with good air permeability. Especially for soil that has already clumped together, the growth of plants will be even more difficult. If you don't change the soil quickly, the plant will not only have yellow leaves, but will most likely eventually die.

2. It actually does not need a lot of water to grow, as long as its growth needs are met, so its watering needs need to change with the influence of the weather. Fill it up every time you water it, and just keep the soil surface slightly dry. In summer, you can also spray more water mist on the leaves, which will make the plants grow well.

3. Exposure to light will affect its growth. It cannot be too much or too little. Too little light will cause yellow leaves to grow, while too much light will directly cause the leaves to lack water and become dry, tippy and burnt. Therefore, except for midsummer, keep it in a shady location, and place it in a well-lit location at other times.

2. Does the black stem mean the roots are rotten?

The roots begin to rot and gradually turn black, spreading directly from the roots to the stems. This is already very serious root rot. If measures are not taken in time to save it, the plant is likely to die directly.
