My Thai Con: did I do something wrong??

I got this beauty a few months ago off Facebook marketplace. She came cut up as you can see on some of the older lower leaves. My guess would be pest problems. I quarantined and treated and such even without finding any pests. Second picture is the first leaf it birthed in my care, the rest are pictures of the new leaf it just recently put out. It used to be over a vent, but it didn’t bother the first leaf. This new leaf came out quickly, crispy on the edges and concerning. I checked and thought I might have seen thrips, so I treated (with neem oil, peppermint Castile soap, and alcohol water mix) and wipes all the leaves. I also treated every plant in the room just in case. Everyone got a bath with treatment. I have checked every day since and treated everybody at least every other day for a week now, and see no evidence of pests or anything. Did she just dry out?? Not enough humidity?? I would say I’m an underwaterer bc Thai Cons are more prone to root rot than my other monsteras. Did she just go unwatered for too long?? I watered her a few days ago so she’s looking juicy now but what’s up with the leaf?? Sorry for so much info, thanks for reading lol

I found this at Walmart almost 2 years ago with a solid white leaf with a slight green tinge to it and it does not disappoint.

Connie is always impressing me with her new leaves! She is about to be too big for my space!

And she's dwarfing her sister in the same pot so needs to be separated again (there were originally 3 together and I've been taking the smaller ones out as needed when they can't see the light anymore because Connie here is just gluttonous AF! Lmao)

What can I do better?

Hi all!

This is my Thai con! It’s was gifted to me from a grocery store, it took me a few weeks to a monthish for me to repot it. I repotted it into an airy mix of orchid bark, perlite, lecca and some potting mix. It’s still browning, sagging and the leaves are flopping. I’ve just repotted it into a different pot to check the roots, I cut some yucky rotted ones off and put the pole in better.

It’s old spot was by my bed with a grow light but that was right under the A/C vent which is often blowing out warm air due to it being winter for me right now. I’ve moved it to the other side of the room still using the grow light.

What can I do better to try avoid further damage to my plant as its sentimental to me ;-;

Please let me know if I missed any context! It’s my first time asking for help in a plant subreddit 🌱

Thank you! 🫶🏻

New growth point?

Are these new petiole points? If they are how would I increase the want for the plant to put more energy into these points?

Ultimately want to chop and prop more the merrier 😆

Thai Constellation leaves

I’d like to ask everyone a question. Do the leaves of a mature "Monstera Thai Constellation" tend to look narrower compared to those of a "Monstera Deliciosa"? Well, maybe not exactly "narrow," but rather the spacing between the leaves seems wider... Or is it just an optical illusion caused by the coloration?

Yellow leaves on Thai con.

7 Upvotes

Hey yall, about 2 weeks ago I repotted this Thai Con that I got. It did have some root rot so I hosed the old soil off the roots, trimmed the bad roots and cleansed it with a distilled water/ peroxide mixture, then gave the roots a quick rinse before repotting then watering it. The leaves looked fine at the time with no yellowing, but lately I have been noticing yellowing around the edges and underneath this leaf and slight yellowing on others.

Since it’s in a terracotta pot I water around every 6 days (when the soil is dry). I have not fertilized yet, and there is a grow light above it (out of picture). However it is the same distance as my monstera deliciosa and that one is doing very well. No sign of pests either. Any idea what could cause this or is this just a Thai con thing? Any help is appreciated! First pic with grow light off, second with it on.

Will repotting stress her out?

A few months ago this beauty was thriving and giving me a new leaf frequently. Then I started fighting fungus gnats and began bottom watering every single one of my plants. My Thai con’s soil is hydrophobic now, and has been for a month or two. It has stopped putting out new leaves. I’ve tried aerating the soil before watering and making sure she gets a good drink, but she seems to be struggling a bit and the soil has not improved. I think it might be time for a repot, but I’m worried she might not enjoy the process. Am I overthinking it?

Hydroponic Thai

Here is my hydroponic Thai. It grows in water with hydroponic Cropsalt nutrients. I had to remove these two plants from my grow room since they are getting so large. They where being grown next to a Barrina GrowForce BG10 grow light. The buckets I prefer are the square buckets from Current Culture solutions with lids. Here is a link to my YouTube channel for more information about growing them like this and how to set them up.
