Hello! I just potted my mini monstera (Rhaphidophora tetrasperma?) from a cutting. I waited until the roots were about an inch and potted it with a mix of potting soil, some small rocks at the bottom and a small amount of cactus soil (just what I had on hand).

I soaked the soil then placed it about a foot from a western facing window. I know these want indirect light but I don't have a north/south facing window and read online people give it direct sunlight if it's indoors. It got about an hour of direct sunlight in the evening which is when I noticed it was wilting so I moved it away from the sun.

Was it a coincidence and it's just in shock from getting planted or did I burn the leaves? I was sooo excited about this cutting because I wanted one of these for so long and I'm worried now that it won't be viable! help, please!

after (just the two outer leaves have wilted the others seem to be doing okay for now)
