My Monstera finally split a leaf after two years, and honestly it was just patience plus consistent bright indirect light. I kept moving it around trying different spots before I found the sweet spot by the east window. If yours is stubbornly refusing to fenestrate, resist the urge to coddle it—just get the light right and wait. Mine actually took off once I stopped fussing.
