I know nothing about plants really. I bought this monstera at Home Depot last year and it seems to be doing really well. I do water it weekly. Should I be moving it to a bigger pot, or tying the limbs so it stops growing outward? I genuinely have no idea, but I want it to keep thriving! Thank you 😊

Meant to state earlier this year, not last year*
I would move it to a bigger pot, but I’m no expert.
If you want it to be bigger —> bigger pot.
If you want it to be smaller —> either split it (fiddly work) or prune it (simple, lots of guides out there)
It does appear to be stretching for light though.
Looks healthy!
Looks great and ready to size up to next pot….
They are actually a climbing vine. Upsize to a larger pot and get her a moss pole to climb. (Moss not coir)
yes, it might be ready for a bigger pot for sure
Those icicles frighten me
I can’t really tell from the pic but this looks like several monsteras together. They may grow better split into their own pots. Check out r/monstera, these guys are climbers who need a pole and chunky soil
Bigger pot separate em all out and give the bigger ones moss poles and they really take off.
