# Hey y’all! I’ve been propagating this monstera and about to pot. But…

_Posted by Jaimie on 2024-12-30_

Hey y’all! I’ve been propagating this monstera and about to pot. But the roots are only growing out of one side. Anyone have any thoughts on if I should go ahead and pot or should I cut it and split it into two and try and propagate the side with no roots growing? Thanks in advance!

I'd say propagate again because why not have 2 lol 😅 unless you'd rather it be bushy. but I suppose, either way. plant 2, then you'll get more plant faster. you can always pot them bakc together again later.
