My monstera has a love/hate relationship with me. She seemed to be doing good and was growing three new leaves and as soon as they opened two started getting dark spots. Has anyone had this issue before? I recently moved it afraid that she was getting too much sunlight.

So, the trick to growing monstera is they need lots of light, but not direct light. Move the plant to a place where they get good light, but the sun isn’t shining on them.

Also, ensure to water well, but water like once the soil is complete dry.
Does your pod have drainage holes?

Ah thank you for the advice! It does but I think they may be clogged because I rarely see water come out. I am considering repotting to a different pot but wanted to make sure what the problem was first because I read that they get stressed when you repot. Do you think it may be a good idea?

Yes. Ultimately she died and I chopped off all of leaves. Looking for advice also.

Oh no! Awe, hopefully it’s not too late! 😞 I thought I was getting better at this plant mom thing and she came and said “nope!”

The pot looks too big. They like to be root bound and I water mine every other week. What kind of light is it getting?

I would work in compost.

A previous monstera had the black spots. Suddenly my other plant had it. It was contagious. Had to throw them both out.

The yellow spreading with dark edges is a sign of overwatering! You can have some root rot at this point. You can either let the soil dry out a bit and hope for the best or take it out of the pot, get the soil of the roots and cut away the bad roots. For the future, let the top soil (a finger deep) dry out before you water it again. They're tropical plants but they don't like damp soil!
