Help! Monstera leaves turn brown

https://feddit.org/post/27358479

You got to give us a little bit more detail. How much sun is it getting? How often are you watering and how much? Did you check for pests? Did you ever fertilize the soil? What kind of soil are you using? Is there drainage at the bottom for the extra water to go somewhere?

Thanks, good point!

I usually water it once a week, but check with a finger that the soil doesn’t dry out completely. I’ve only just bought this one about three weeks ago, so I haven’t used fertilizer yet, soil is the one I got it in. No pests from what I can see. There are drainage holes in the pot, but maybe I should make sure that inner pot doesn’t stand directly on the bottom of the outer one? It doesn’t get direct sunlight, but it is about 2m from a south-facing windowed wall.

Also, I can see that your plant is right next to a humidifier, and misting the leaves doesn’t raise humidity as much as people think (it’s negligible). I would refrain from letting water stay on the leaves, it might lead to fungal problems. In nature, there is a lot of wind and aeration going on, but not as much in our homes 🌪️
Oh I definitly had that misconception! Since winter air is really dry here I thought that might help. So you think the humidifier alone should do the job or should I put that away as well?
Yeah, humidifier is completely fine, it’s just the spraying of the leaves that’s usually bad
Noted, thanks for the info!!
