1. Lack of sunlightReason: Although Monstera is relatively shade-tolerant, it cannot grow without sunlight. If it grows in a place without sunlight for a long time, it cannot carry out photosynthesis at all. Without nutrient supply, the leaves will naturally be smaller. Solution: Move the Monstera to a place with good lighting, expose it to normal sunlight, and supplement it with good light during the growing period. Normal photosynthesis can promote the growth of leaves. 2. Lack of waterReason: Appropriate moisture is required during growth. Not watering for a long time will cause the soil in the pot to dry out. Without water supply, growth problems will naturally occur and the leaves will become smaller. Solution: Water reasonably according to the growth needs, supply water in time during the growth period, and control the amount of water. Never water too much. 3. Lack of nutrientsReason: Monstera requires sufficient nutrients to grow. If no fertilizer is applied for a long time, there will be no nutrients to maintain its growth, and its growth will become poor and the leaves will not grow large. Solution: Apply sufficient base fertilizer before planting in pots. During the subsequent period of vigorous growth, you can apply thin liquid fertilizer once a month. 4. Unsuitable soilReason: Soil factors are the basis of growth. Unsuitable soil will also affect the leaves, Solution: Change the soil every two years or so, and replace it with loose, breathable sandy soil in time. |
