Monstera Leaves Brown Before Unfurling. Monstera deliciosa also called the split-leaf philodendron and Swiss cheese plant is a popular houseplant with distinctive split and perforated leaves. Water only when soil is dry to the touch.
The main reasons for your Monstera leaves turning brown are over- or underwatering too much direct sunlight dry air or a lack of nutrients. Right now Im having only 2 leaves because I cut all the bad ones out and have dunked the roots in water with some npk fertilizer. However you can easily fix this issue.
Will Monstera leaves split after unfurling.
Either your soil has gone much too dry or you plant has stayed wet for too long. Monstera are hardy houseplants and can bounce back from tough conditions. Monstera leaves also turn yellow from lack of lighting and therefore in winter it is necessary to put a container with a flower near the window oriented towards the south. It gets indirect light in my bedroom but is opposite the only window.
