I got this obliqua yesterday for 34€, it was a bit of an impulsive buy since I never thought I would run into one in my local store, so as soon as I saw it I bought it.
It sits in a north facing window, is it okay or does it need more light. Also, tips on how to mantain humidity… do I make a moss pole or is it too much? Where I live it gets hot in the summer.
What type of soil does it need and when do I repot it? Also, how often do I fertilize it?
Thank you

**Btw, google is a great tool for research. I highly recommend you give it a go for additional info as it is always good to cross-reference other articles etc.** so you can get the broadest understanding of whatever info you’re looking for.
It requires a lot of humidity (70-80%) to flourish…you can also give it something to climb and as they appear attempt to propagate runners to create more obliquas
High Humidity to keep it from browning. Other than that, it is a monstera, so treat it as such. They grow relatively fast and stay compact, which I like. Mine was very healthy before it got knocked down and broke🙂. The photo below is before it broke, lol. I got it less than 2 months with only the smallest leaf.
