Is my Monstera Albo going to grow a leaf anytime soon?

Question

He just keeps putting out more of these little stem sections. There’s another one just starting to poke out of the tallest one. Am I doing something weong that prevents him from growing a leaf? Thank you!!

Mine did that too! Two stems that grew out of each other and then the third time it did it it was a leaf.

@LauraLynne I have a tiny Thai in spagham moss. I will upsize the planter with more moss today. But eventually I want to transition to soil.  Will you be doing the same? When is it time to upgrade to soil?

@LauraLynne · Answer

@Rockrlee I am not putting her in soil until she is completely root bound. She is actually in the mix she came in (which was a hodgepodge of leca, perlite, moss and bark with a layer of moss on top) plus I mixed in monstera soil. She seems really happy so I’m not upsizing her until I absolutely have to.

@Rockrlee better shot of the slotted container and mix

Yes, it’s a leaf stalk and leaf that is forming. Congratulations! 🌿

@bluebladeliger the official term is petiole but leaf stalk is used as well. 😁
