Why does my monstera have yellow leaves :(
10ft to light, direct
2â pot with drainage
Last watered 2 months ago
Emma, I feel this question in my soul! I'm glad you found Greg. (:
In my opinion, there's a fine line with the soil and the sunlight. The soil needs to be well-draining and chunky so there's not too much water and the soil can drain well (no standing water at the bottom of the pot).
I discovered that if a adansonii gets TOO much light, it'll cause yellow leaves also. It will also yellow if it's not getting enough light. Ten feet from a window isn't a lot of light in most cases.
BUT loosing a bottom leaf is way better than loosing another leaf. You can pinch that one off and cut your losses.
