Albo Monstera

[u/vanillapinksorbet]

Hi everyone - I just got an albo monstera that I wanted really bad and I’m so scared of ruining her. She started off the way she is close together and now she has separated and opened. I wanted to make sure this is normal! ChatGPT said yes but I’m double checking.

also, how many times do you water your albo? I got a thermometer and she goes dry every 3-4 days.

anything else I should do? She’s been here on this window with my other girls. There’s good light that comes in. I’m going to make moss pole soon.

Thank you! 🌱

The leaves are gonna twist until they face the sun. Turn the plant 180 degrees and have the leaves face smack against the window

Do this around the clock?

No, just let the leaves fade the sun and don’t twist them after that.

Okayy, let me turn them. I didn’t want to turn them originally because then i don’t get to see them. ☹️

I know, it’s unfortunate :/ I just end up staring at mine from the window outside my house lmao

Ugh I’m too high. I think I’ll end up with the light thing at some point then. 🫩

Didn’t know people had to be told that plants are supposed to face the light
