I have a young monstera that has been growing pretty well but I am not seeing black spots on the new leafs before unfurling. Makes it looks like the shoots have been burnt. Any idea what is causing it? I don’t see bugs around the plants and the full grown leaves are doing fine. Thanks a lot!
Hi, I’m not an expert, but it could be burn from direct sunlight (or harsh sunlight through a window) or could be because the air is too dry. Monstera’s are forest plants and grow up trees in their natural habitat so prefer a slightly diffuse rather than direct light. Also try misting to give them some humidity.
