Help Needed - new to Plants ๐Ÿ˜…
Post Body

Hey all, so Iโ€™m pretty sure I know why my monstera is drooping, but wanted to see thoughts.

So Iโ€™m really new to plants, have had this monstera for almost a week and recently started to wilt.

For the soil I heard it was supposed to be chunky and airy, so I got orchid mix based on many suggestions from online for a monstera. I added that and some plant food in the pot.

It definitely looked chunkier than what I saw other peopleโ€™s had, but wasnโ€™t sure. The pot has good drainage, and by good I think maybe way TOO much. I watered it this morning because the soil registered as dry in multiple places after I watered it yesterday. And the water almost comes right out the bottom when I do.

My thought is to remix the soil and add a good amount of regular potting soil to have it be able to hold on to moisture better.

Let me know if maybe thereโ€™s another reason or if you think Iโ€™m on the right track. Thank you so much, so happy this community exists!
