Help please!

I can’t seem to keep this plant happy, lol.

I got it about 2.5 months ago, within three days of having it the pitchers started to rot.

I moved it to my humidity cabinet where it seemed to stabilize, and after watering it for the first time I threw a bit of a fit, and the bigger pitchers started to rot…

I had used a miracle grow indoor plant fertilizer, and filtered water.

I repotted it in sphagnum moss and coco coir, yesterday after reading that keeping it in compacted soil was not ideal.

I have moved it today to a hanging location near a south facing window, supported with a T1 barrina grow light approximately 5’ away- for the other plants and a humidifier directly below it to try to keep it relatively humid.

I live in NWFL, and I’m half tempted to make this an outdoor plant if this doesn’t work…

Admittedly, I did no research upon getting this plant but it was gorgeous and I was enthralled. I’m extremely behind the power curve at the point but will take any pointers I can get.

TIA!

I recently (about 2 weeks ago) got a monstera esqueleto from Costa Farms.

It’s showing some signs of stress and I am hoping to get some clarification on what may be taking place early so I don’t lose this gorgeous plant.

About 3 days after it arrived I put it in my shower and sprayed it with Capt Jacks DBB and gave it a good rinse.

I wanted to give it a couple weeks before changing the soil to a better, chunkier mix with granules but now I’m curious if I may have overwatered it and need to do that soon.

The plant is by a south facing window, gets daylight all day and a some direct light from a barrina T1 light nearby. The plant has only been watered by rinse it got in the shower in the last 1.5 weeks as I was waiting for it to fully dry out and acclimate before watering again.

TIA!
